Read and Write WAV Files in Java In this code tutorial, I show you how to get java to play nice with WAV files. It's a little bit trickier than you might expect!
Wii Play the Drums This is a fun little piece of software that turns your wiimote into a drum kit. It uses natural drum-kit motions to trigger sounds, and it is easy to set up on any windows pc. You can get the source code here.
Suite for AudioSurf AudioSurf generates gameplay based on music. That gives us musicians a unique opportunity to act as level designers. See how I took advantage of this.

Just know that I went out and bought a bluetooth dongle just for this application.
Since, I've discovered the joys of glovepie and using Wii controllers to play Halo. Hours, and hours of fun :].
The only thing I CAN'T get to work is this program. Whereas my controller IS connected, when I try to start the program, it says it can't find the Wii Remote. I open my bluetooth interface, and it shows my controller is connected fine.
I think it might be worth mentioning that my dongle isn't compatible with BlueSoleil, which a lot of people use, but then again, I can connect to glovepie fine.
Hoping the bugs get fixed so I can try out this program!
evan at 2007-11-28 06:24:04 Yeah, unfortunately, getting a wiimote properly connected in windows is difficult. It doesn't really give you any indication of whether you are actually connected or not. GlovePIE avoids a lot of the windows crap, I believe (although I know very little about GlovePIE). My software is, unfortunately, intimately tied to windows via the .Net platform. One thing to check is, when you go into Bluetooth places, select your wiimote and click Status (I believe). If your device is connected, then it should show data going both ways on the little progress bar.
I am going to do a video about properly connecting wiimotes to windows XP machines, because it IS tricky. I will try to do that tonight.
Thanks for your feedback.. I will do my best to make sure you get connected!
HELLO at 2008-02-27 17:07:09I CAT DOWN LOAD THIS SOFT WARE i tried to click on the link "wii giutar software" then i clicked open but nothing happened plz answer and help i really want this software i hav evry thing else!!!!!
A. Meeder at 2008-03-13 06:55:26.Net Managed Libraries for DirectX I use Bluesoleil Bluetooth drivers which work very well width Windows XP and Vista and Wii Remote. Your Wii Drum and Wii Guitar didn't work on my machine. There was no exception so the Wiimote was found but I didn't hear anything. I try to recompiled your Wii Drum sources but Visual Studio complains about the Managed DirectX libraries so I downloaded the Microsoft DirectX SDK, installed it and recompiled your Wii Drums solution and now it works perfectly well. You version of the Wii Guitar still didn't work on the machine with the SDK. I don't know why maybe I have to recompile it first but you didn't publish the source. Maybe this will help you find out why so much people have problems with Wii Drums etc.
Thank you for your software.

The pack comes with Bluesoleil??
So, in Windows 7 wont run :(
Moot at 2009-07-27 10:14:26NEt 2.5 only? I am using the wii controller a fair bit with other projects, and smoothboard means that I need .net 3.5 . How can I get your program rolling on the updated version, because I think the guitar controller is a GREAT idea, and would love to incorporate it into presentations for the Wii Whiteboard.
Please feel free to contact me (you can find my info at www.fifthbiz.com if you speak spanish, or www.fifthbiz.blogspot.com in English) because I think this is way too good an idea to not continue.
