Possible to simulate physics using JFSX/Reascript/LUA ?

[Michael Z Freeman]

Hi,

I made a prototype in Blender Game Engine of a physics simulation of a DJ turntable that proved to me that the unique sound of DJ Turntabalism/Deckology/Scratching can be reproduced by using a physics simulation of the rotating turntable platter. It sounds a lot better than "faked" effects ...



A Reaper way or a VST that can replicate my Blender Turntable physics prototype ?

So do forum members think it's feasible to be able to make some kind of physics simulation in scripting that could effect the play speed control of Reaper directly ? It would not have to be an entire physics engine as in used in many game engines because the movement is limited to a turntable platter. However I doubt this would be simple and am looking at using my prototype as a kind virtual control surface that would output MIDI CC that can then be used to control Reaper or anything else.

Your video doesn't work.

Yeahllo-pretty cool yep.
Do you have a direct link to the .blend file? pm?
Reaper has job/scrubbing in the timeline so it shouldn't rea lly be to hard scripting it.
Having owned 2 sets of 1200's in the past>might know a little bit about turntabalizm,if you want actual feedback.
When 1st started blender,interacting with a soundcard and midi was what I initially wanted,but just didn't seek all the code and knowledge to rea lize that wanting.
Python is not complex for those that do it regular and know how it works.
I<just don't know that.^ =)
Hope you get more feedback on this,because turntables are not easy to emulate convincingly.
I know that!^ because having tried many different ways.

There a ".blend" download at the top of this thread.

Ok thanks,but that's about as usefull as a poke in the eye.
