I'm currently doing this in TCL/TK. I started using the snack audio
library which (anong other things) makes spectrograms. I give it
consecutive chunks of audio and have it redraw to the canvas every n
milliseconds. I think it's having trouble keepingup, and it only knows how
to do 2d plots.
I'm considering doing the processing beforehand (ie, on load) and storing
the entire time-domain fft into a matrix, then using a graphics library
(plot3d) to graph it in real time... unless I can figure outhow to
multithread the program to allow one function to read ahead while the
other graphs it.
Anyway, I've never programed tcl/tk before, but I'm trying to get this
done before january.

Hi All,
I have a small utility (jackswitch - a clickless <hopefully> audio switch for
the jack enviroment) and was wondering if there is a site for hosting this
kind of small simple utility program.
Sure I could create a web site for it but it seems rather silly to write a
website that is probably going to be larger then the tarball it is created to
host!
Steve, would plugin.org.uk take it?
Hi
Anybody knows any software that enable MP3 timestretch in real time?
I want no file conversions.
In addition, I prefer a software that process the MP3 stream and not the
stream MP3 after decoding process. Anybody knows any algorithm for this?
Sorry by my english faults.
Regards, Suzana
Hello,
Is there any way to stop qjackctl from re-ordering a client's ports
in its connection dialog ? IMHO the author of a client probably had
her/his good reasons for the order chosen, and qjackctl should leave
this alone.

Hi,
QjackCtl 0.2.12a has been released.
Some fix on the audio connections client port sorting is about to justify
this immediate release.
Thanks goes this time to Fons Adriaensen, for pointing this out.
Enjoy!

Hi Aaron,
I fully understand what you are trying to say. They are 2 excellent ideas
and really moving thought into an area of futuristic methods. It must be
quite incredible to see the hebrew words (which I understand) being
displayed visually. I suppose the ultimate test for your idea would be to
draw the hebrew letters and hear them being reproduced aurally (WOW). I can
envisage an inordinately massive amount of coding :)

Hi all,
I have been mostly lurking so far but I thought I might send out two
ideas for killer apps I had.
1. Basically a front end to lilypond which will work
more like a audio program.
In many audio editors you can see the wav or a square block on a track.
I had this idea of a notation editor that has tracks you can create your
form ABA, lets say, and add markers for them. Then create motives which
via midi or notation will become lilypond notation in the end. This
chunk can then be put on a track.
>The chunk can be displayed as a staff with the notes(graphic), as the
lilypond, or just a blank track. In the same way a daw may display a
chunk of audio a a rectangle or a wave.
These Chunk can be copied, pasted transposed retrograded etc, new chunks
could be added and manipulated.
My reasoning is as follows, when will Linux shine? when it does
something unique not done by others. Thats what makes jack/ardour etc so
appealing.
Fo notation midi input exists with rumor or a number or existing libs,
creating an on the fly lilypond file is very possible, infact if the
graphic (staff) representation was left off all the parts already exist.
2. This I call V.A.W it has a drawback in that the base technology is
currently closed source, but this might be subject to change..
here goes a inventer I know wanted to see if it was possible to recreate
what it says in the Hebrew Torah (Bible) the the Jews on Mount Sinai
Roim et Ha Kolot. (they say the sounds) He created a way to translate
sound waves into light waves and display them. He found some very
interesting things. (Hebrew letters spoken display as the shape of the
letter). I sang into his device and saw Bach and other music display via
his device. All overtones are displayed and visible as different colors.
The sound of a audio mix is visually open for all to see.
This is very hard to grasp without seeing.....
My idea is to take his algorism/app and reverse the process and have the
ability to take the visual and turn it back to audio. This would be like
view on midi editors with the squares you can change to effect the
sound, only not midi but audio!
I wrote out very detailed plans for this app, again this is something
that just doesn't exist, image not having to rely soley on your ears
when adding effects to a mix but being able to see how the changes you
make actually effect the way it looks/sounds and I mean in detail. There
are so many possibilities for this.
In a regular daw your see I think only amplitude and something else (the
wav display)
If this one isn't clearly described I will try again.
