Rick Fresco (aka Riccardo Betti, the winner of 2012’s Midi Fighter 3D contest) has released a brand new track and video, “Last Round”, featuring a finger-drumming routine on a Midi Fighter Pro. He’s also programmed the LED lighting on his backdrop controllers (2 Launchpads, 3 Midi Fighter 3Ds, and 2 Akai LPD8s) to go along with his performance. Rick writes:
This is the official live performance of my track “Last Round”. Everything you can hear and see in this video is performed LIVE!
Every button on the Midi Fighter Pro is programmed both for triggering samples and loops of the song and for triggering the LED animations on the controllers behind me.
Everything from song composition and MIDI programming to LED animations was made using only Ableton Live with no third party plug-ins.
