* lpControl - Bringing that warm analog feel back to your computer
  lpControl allows you to use an analog record player and timecode
  record as a computer input device. A server program reads audio
  input from the record player and sends relative velocity information
  to listening clients over UDP.

* Requirements
  - Python 2.7
  - PyAudio
  - NumPy
  - Serato Scratch Live Second Edition Vinyl Record - Available for
    $15 on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Rane-Serato-Scratch-LIVE-Edition/dp/B000KFX0J8/
  - Stereo audio input (Line in on my Macbook Pro works fine)

* Usage
  Run the server program with =python server.py=. Now any program can
  listen for UDP packets on =localhost:6666=. Try one of the example
  programs.

* Examples
** Spotify
   =python spotify.py=

   Control Spotify as if it were pressed onto vinyl. Drop the needle
   on the record and Spotify begins playing. Scratch backwards to go
   to the previous track. Scratch forwards for the next track. Lift
   the needle and marvel as Spotify pauses.

** Rotary Phone
   =python dialer.py=

   Dial a rotary phone by rotation of the record. Rotation of the
   record is mapped to 1:1 with the virtual phone. Requires PyGame and
   twilio-python.

* Extending
  Broadcasting velocity information over UDP makes it incredibly easy
  to build out new applications on top of this. Try using a bit of
  AppleScript (as in =spotifycontrol.py=) to control almost anything
  on your Mac.

  =skeleton.py= is a good starting point for building new apps. It
  demonstrates listening for velocity data, and using that to run a
  state machine detecting qualitative record movement
  (ie. fast-forward, forward, stopped, reverse).
