Controlling using Conducting Gestures

 

Conducting tempo (tap tempo)

The conductor changes tempo by clicking a button on middle finger accordingly to a written tempo. The tempo controller can be set to calculate the average time between any number of clicks. That means it can calculate the time between two clicks minimum to an infinite number. If a score is in 4/4 a calculation setting of 4 would be the most natural setting although a setting of 2 can easily work. For pieces with frequent meter changes a setting of 2 seems to give the best result.

 

Cue control. (Synchronization of conducting score and electronic score)

The conductor can, by clicking the button on ring finger to move the electronic score back and forth to selected numbers (rehearsal numbers) written in the score. Clicking once jumps forward, clicking twice jumps backward. This is very useful not only to synchronize the score following of the computer but also very important for jumping back and forth during rehearsals.
