[pd] 100000hz+

2006-10-26 Thread hard off

i just made a synth which makes some really nice tones when i feed it
really high frequencies.  (midi notes 150-300)

question is, will this sound the same on all computers, or do
different systems handle such high frequencies differently?

Hm ... it depends in the sampling frequency.
The frequencies are mirrowed at sr/2, so if the sr is the same it should 
work (but I haven't tried it ...)

it will mainly depend on the sampling rate, since i guess, the sounds
that you produce contain aliasing artifacts ...

Re: [PD] Firewire interfaces and PD?

2006-10-26 Thread padovani
Hmmm... I'm interested on the Firepod, but I am I little afraid about 
processing issues... It seens to be a nice soundcard since it has 8 
preamped mic ins, what could be very useful on interactive 
performances... no mixer or preamps needed at all.

Do you know anything about it?
About Motu... It seens a very good interface but not yet ready to work 
in linux.. Freebob team is working on firewire interfaces but the 
companies are not realy helpful on giving support... It is stupid, 
because I would spend a little more money to buy a Motu device if it had 
linux support. It seens that it will work on the next Freebob release...

And what about the Edirol interfaces? Any experiences?
Thanks for the answers...

yep. i use the presonus firebox and OS X 10.4.1 with PD.
it works absolutely well with both audio and midi. it only takes
more processing power, so patches run a little slower than
compared to the built-in sound. I think this is worth it, since
i also use it for multispeaker purposes and NEVER the two
(Pd and the Firebox) did they have trouble communicating.
seems the two like each other.
Once my old Firebox became unreliable so i contacted the
German distributer and the store i bought it from and within
two days i had a new one. Only downside is that i had to pay to send 
it pack.  I really like the Firebox. It was recommended to me by Kim 
Cascone, who has some years

of experience and he was absolutely right about this sweet little box : )

I have used the FA-66 with Linux (freebob on Ubuntu), and on OS X. I can
use very latencies c.6ms on Linux, with virtually no xruns, however
there is currently nothing in the way of software mixer/control/routing
functionality along the lines of alsamixer, hdspmixer etc. 

YMMV,

Jamie

 oh well, i'll stick to normal midi notes for that i guess.

Don't be too bummed out. Given what's been said here I'm not sure exactly
how this happened, but I made the types of sounds you're talking about
(an [osc~] at +127 midi) and recorded them to a wav file and imported that
wav file into a .XM file and then played that .XM file back on a gameboy
advance, and it sounded pretty much how it did in the original instance,
despite the fact that it was playing back at a different sampling rate and
underwent conversions between different sample rates in the process. If
I was you I would experiment with your sound on some different systems
before giving up. I guess sometimes practice confounds theory.

Best,

Chris.

This is fixed in GridFlow 0.8.5.

Re: [PD] Re: multi-speaker panning.. problamtic maths

2006-10-26 Thread Charles Henry

I made this mistake again last thursday - I computed sound amplitude of
some kind of omnidirectional source as being r^-2 where r is the distance.
However, I believe that it's energy that should be r^-2, therefore
amplitude should be r^-1. That's assuming ideal 3-D dispersion (no
ceilings and no walls). Is that right?


Exactly right.  For that ideal environment, we have the intensity
(W/m^2) distributed evenly on the surface of a sphere at radius r.
So, since the surface area of the sphere varies as r^2, the intensity
falls off at a rate of r^-2.  The energy of the wave is (mostly)
conserved, it just gets spread out over a larger area.

 This is as expected. What Chris says is no surprise. If you render the output
 to a .wav file it is captured as a snapshot and the sample rate no longer 
 has any effect (other than to change the overall playback rate). The problem
 others were trying to explain is that the synthesis patch is not independent
 of sample rate, so using the same Pd patch at different sample rates will
 produce different results. If you're recording it the problem doesn't exist.

I am not sure if I understand this distinction correctly. If I use Pd at
44100Hz to generate a high frequency wave that aliases, and save it as
a 44100Hz wave file, shouldn't that wave file be subjected to different
aliasing if I play it back at say 22050Hz? What about if I upsample it
to 96kHz? Will the aliasing weirdness disappear if the tone I played was
below 96kHz? Or is it somehow baked into the wav file. I think I am out
of my depth here.

Chris.

Hallo,

You don't need to play with it much, it's a decision to make: Do you
want to have [list length] give the same length for 1 2 3 and a b
c and list a b c or should a b c be one less?
