[PD] pixelTango CVS link

2007-01-14 Thread Jeff Dawson

Hello,

I recently tried to download the pixelTango CVS snapshot 
(http://cvs.sat.qc.ca/pixelTANGO.tar.gz) from the tot.sat.qc.ca website, 
but it brings up a 404 File Not Found error. Does anyone know if there's 
anywhere else I can get the file?


Cheers,
Jeff Dawson

adsr(once I get the sustain into the patch)
and lfo's and maybe some sequencing.
  
An enveloppe might be neat for drawing lfo or vco waveshapes indeed, and 
even excellent if the curves could have another shape than a line.
It would look like the enveloppe generator of some vst intrument like 
crystal synth.

In the diy-synth scene people actually build that kind of envelope  
generators. To make new sounds seam an good reason why. Also  
envelopes of acoustic instruments aren't linear, hence multiple  
envelope points gives a possibility to do a quite good approximation  
(of say a logarithmic-like curve). See fx http://puredata.org/Members/

Um, sorry, but that's not true: Even the early Music N saw the need to
be able to define arbitrary length break point envelopes. Usually
these are called GEN functions with a number afterwards. The ADSR so
popular on commercial synths is just a simplied (some say:
dumbed-down) version of a breakpoint GEN-function. And even the most
popular hardware synth, the DX7, didn't have simple ADSRs but slightly
more complex and powerful envelopes.

Re: [PD] wave morphing

2007-01-14 Thread Malte Steiner

Hello,

I didn't try this freeware, but it looks like very good, the info.html 
is explicitly show the fonctionning,then we could deduce how to proceed 
for doing something similar with this.
Also I am not sure how one hundred of waveforms would be stored into the 
patch.


I didnt looked into your patch yet but usually these waveforms are 
stored in one table as one sample. Your tabread object should run 
through one waveform at a time, I have to look up how much bytes they 
are but assume 256, so it runs from 0 to 255 and to switch to another 
waveform you add n*256 where n is the waveformnumber. When you switch 
with a line object over several waveforms, you get the wonderful crude 
ppg sound but you should make sure that it goes only whole numbers 
without fractions so it really jumps a whole waveform each step. It can 
be done by sending the moving number through an int object.


Even in the boring rompler 'synthesizers' of the 90s all samples are 
usually stored in one big memorychunk. The Emu line of Proteus and 
Morpheus Synthesizers even let you change the wavestart, -end and loop 
settings beyond one sample borders so you can create rather sick material.

I've been looking a little bit for it but it's a little painfull to find 
something about sound generation, Csound
apparently has a feature called GEN function but it looks very similar 
with just filling an array, right?

 The ADSR so
popular on commercial synths is just a simplied (some say:
dumbed-down) version of a breakpoint GEN-function.
That makes sense, popular and commercial synth needed a standart and 
called it ADSR,
but if musicians needed something more complex, why aren't there more 
synthetizers with this kind of feature?

The shape of an enveloppe depends on what we want to do with,
for example in drum boxes, the release is not necessary,
even the sustain has been removed from most popular synth like the 
bassline.

 And even the most
popular hardware synth, the DX7, didn't have simple ADSRs but slightly
more complex and powerful envelopes.

  

I am not sure about that, DX7 has the usual ADSR, and level,
maybe the powerfull side is that we can edit a pitch and amplitude 
envelope for each operator,

Oops, fortunately you didn't looked into the patch, there was, again, a 
missing abstraction which is attached.
It's a kind of autorange but that outputs values between zero and one 
for a given pair of input range.
This abstraction permits to slide between waveforms by adding them 
progressively

Your tabread object should run through one waveform at a time,
So the functionning seems different because my patch is about getting 
the average between to successive waveshapes,

instead of passing from one to another without transition.
I have to look up how much bytes they are but assume 256, so it runs 
from 0 to 255 and to switch to another waveform you add n*256 where n 
is the waveformnumber.
Good, then the amount of samples won't get truncated with using one 
hundred of different waveforms.

[PD] OT: video automated compsiting

2007-01-14 Thread Max Neupert

hi list,

i need advice or a contractor for the following programming work:

there is a battery test, where batteries are tested for safety.
batteries are overcharged and exposed to pressure.
one test can take up to 9 hours.
the test is put on video by a hard disk video camera which produces  
movie pieces of 1.99 GB each.


here are some examples (edited)

http://www.extraenergy.org/files/ENAX_BatteryTest.mp4
http://www.extraenergy.org/files/EE_BatteryTest.mp4

from the test 7 sensors take data and save it in an table

this is the device taking the data JUMO LOGOSCREEN cf
http://www3.jumo.de/pio/product.do?uuid=dde161330a0a025d224701f0dfb8ca89

it stores the values on a cf-card / send it over serial port.

the final thing should be a movie file with the sensor data  
visualized on top of it as a kind of overlay.


the visualization and compositing should be an automated process.
also the most of the time nothing happens in the video. in this case  
(sensors don't report a sudden change of values) the video should be  
displayed in fast forward.


what should be developed is a software which creates the visual  
overlay for the video data.

sync with the video data should be ensured.

ok. any advice on how to approach this is very welcome.

if you think you would like to do this as a contract, please answer  
me privately and include price and development time needed.


it its kind of last minute, because there is a meeting with the  
customer tomorrow (in 6 hrs) so if anyone is interested react  
quickly. price can be an estimation but should include a maximum.


max.

 Did this cause any added latency?  I have seen the problems that you  
 have pointed out, but I haven't had a chance to debug them.  I think  
 the key is to find ways to make things work at the full speed, rather  
 than find workarounds.
 
 The processInput() stuff should probably be handled using an  
 interrupt so output messages don't get dropped.  The tricky part  
 there is to handle output messages without causing jitter in the  
 input messages.  That's the ultimate goal.
 
 .hc

here a short (but a bit more detailed) report from my side:

i applied the proposed changes to the firmware-code and uploaded the new
version to the arduino board. after enabling analogIns it was still
possible to send messages to digitalOuts without any additional jitter.
but when i enable more than 3 analogIns, i have the same situation again
(as for now i can live with that). when 4 or more analogIns are enabled,
messages TO the board don't come through anymore and sometimes i even
need to close the connection in order to switch the analogIns off again
(closing [comport] has immediate effect, whereas turning analogIns off
might take up to 10s or more).
i measured again with the patched version, how many values i receive in
pd from the analogIns. Interestingly, i still get around 968 values per
seconds. that means, that martin peach's patch doesn't affect
performance of the arduino board, but increases the amount of enabled
analogIns whitout having jitter from 0 (original version) to 3 (martin
peach's version).

maybe it looks stupid from a coder perspective, but i will test if i can
make it work with all analogIns enabled by increasing the while loop to
200 iterations (1 iteration = no analogIn; 100 iterations = 3 analogIns;
200 iterations = 6 analogIns?)
