About
Baton is an orchestra for electronic music. Every key you play is spread across four desks, each with its own instrument (strings, brass, woodwinds, choirs, harp, mallets, timpani, taiko and synth sections: 28 in all) and its own technique, from sustain and staccato to tremolo, trills, rips and falls.
Electronic techniques play on your project's grid: ostinato, gated, reverse and glitch. Motion moves the desks in patterns, and ensemble, echo, tape, stutter, shimmer and hall place the orchestra in a space. Every player in a section has its own vibrato and drift, so the sections sound full.
The stage shows the players from above: drag a desk to seat it, scroll on it to set its level. NEW SCORE writes a fresh arrangement in one of seven styles, and CRAZY scrambles techniques, octaves and pans on every note, as subtly or as wildly as you set it.
