[PD] pixelTango CVS link
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 ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Since sixty years of electronic music the need for an enveloppe generator with more than the four usual parameters has not been necessary, why would we need now an aaddsrr, what's the interest? what this patch will be used for? 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. PC. ___ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

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).

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
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. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavetable Cheers, Malte -- Malte Steiner media art + development -www.block4.com- ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

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, ciao, PC. ___ Découvrez une nouvelle façon d'obtenir des réponses à toutes vos questions !

Re: [PD] wave morphing
Malte Steiner a écrit : I didnt looked into your patch yet but usually these waveforms are stored in one table as one sample. 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. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavetable thanks, PC.

[PD] OT: video automated compsiting
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. ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

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?) roman ___ Telefonate ohne weitere Kosten vom PC zum PC: http://messenger.yahoo.de ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
