Cycle 1- Rhythm Imposter

For my cycle 1 I was inspired by the game Among Us. I wanted to put a twist on the game and use sound and body movement to help players decide who was the imposter and who wasn’t. I immediately knew I needed multiple headphones, but I struggled where to put these headphone in for Isadora to send the sound to. I realized that I was going to need a multichannel sound system that allows me to connect multiple headphones. I first used a different version of the MOTU UltraLite mk3 Hybrid sound system that had 8 channels on it. It was pretty simple to use but when I connected it to my computer and tried to send the sound through, it was only reading 2 channles. It took a couple of classes, reading the manual, and asking Alex how do I solve this problem but I solved the problem.

First, I had each player choose 1 number and that number would assign your role as a “regular” or “imposter”. Here is my patch for where everyone chose their roles:

Here is my patch for getting the sound to be sent through different channels. Again in this instance I had 1 song going to 4 channels (headphones) and another song going to 2 channels (headphones).

The purpose of this cycle was to get the MOTU sound system working and solving the problem of getting different sounds/ songs to be sent through different channels. My first struggle was that I could on get 2 channels working, however after switching to a bigger MOTU sound system and making sure Isadora read 8 channels, then I was able to achieve my goal.
