How does Twitch streamer DeanoBeano use the recorder?
In his COD clip, the streamer used whistling sounds from his recorder (which is a flute-shaped musical instrument) to trigger camera movements. As seen during the gameplay, he stalked his opponent from a distance and scoped them until he managed to get a headshot kill.
In the latest stream, he was trying to play Street Fighter through the recorder. In the short clip, DeanoBeano can be seen inflicting heavy damage against the AI-controlled opponent.
For those wondering how he devised such a unique method of playing games, the notes that he's performing are picked up by a microphone. From thereon, the program converts the audio into keyboard input.
He isn't a novice when it comes to playing games with musical instruments. The streamer has used various other instruments to play massive titles such as COD and Street Fighter. During a stream, he was seen playing the guitar to trigger controls in his game, while on another occasion, he used a bongo to play Warzone. The Twitch creator even went a step ahead for Jak and Dexter, utilizing an entire drum setup as a controller.
