In this patch, pressing the Wiimote’s trigger button plays a series of notes that trigger samples loaded into three Reason NN-19 modules, which are connected to MIDI channels 4, 7, and 8. The samples, all bits of political speeches, are played in random order, and a random small amount of Pitch Bend is applied to each sample as it plays. The tempo of the samples is controlled by moving the Wiimote in the vertical direction. Moving the Wiimote horizontally adds pitch vibrato (LFO) to the samples.
The joystick on the Nunchuck has several functions, which are selected by the Wiimote’s buttons. Pressing the Up button means that the joystick’s vertical motion will lengthen or shorten the amplitude envelope of the samples, thus determining whether they will play through their entire length or be truncated. Pressing the Down button means the joystick will control the wet/dry mix of the reverb on the samples.
