The Electronic Trumpet

Freeing the Trumpet

Stella is a project begun by David Baylies in the summer of 2016. The project aims to allow trumpet players to control synthesized tones via MIDI using conventional trumpet technique. The code is currently open software, and the hardware is in the works to be sold, allowing tinkerers to play and modify Stella as they see fit. In the mean time, all are welcome to manufacture their own versions of Stella.

Stella in Action

This is a performance made at the Guthman Musical Instrument Competition in 2018.
