The brain treats all sound in a fourier representation, noise also.
Don't you think noise sounds like thousands of different beeps? The
computer representation would be no different.

Hmm, are you sure? I would agree on that for a 0.1 Hz signal, which is
not the case. Assume the sound contains a 100.0 Hz signal, then the
analyzed amplitude (using sin and cos for phase independency) should
be higher for 100.0 Hz than for 99.9 or 100.1, even for short periods.
But I'm a newbie to DSP...
What I actually aim at doing is a "sampler" program/plugin with pitch
scaling, using this "complete fourier transform" approach to overcome
the problems listed in:
http://www.dspdimension.com/html/timepitch.html
Any suggestions?

fluid is the Fast Light User Interface Designer, comes with x11-libs/fltk in
Gentoo distribution, in a Debian the package is fluid .... sorry i dont know
in other linux distributions, maybe you can easy find.

Hi!
I just joined this list. I have an idea for a sound format which is
similar to spectrum analysis (but better?): represent the sound as a
synthesis of sinus waves where the frequencies are free and can change
with time.
Instead of doing a discrete fourier transform when reading a small
frame of the sound, do a dense transform (every 0.1 Hz?) and pick out
the peaks. Then assume that a similar enough frequency in the next
frame comes from the same source, keep joining those and your sound
will be represented by a lot of oscillators (wavelets) with amplitude
and frequency curves. I guess this would overcome the weaknesses in
having fixed frequencies.
This idea shouldn't be new, where can I read about it? Has it been
implemented anywhere?
Thanks in advance,

I'd second that. I've been running 2.5 on two boxes for awhile.
One is a VIA C3 (via82xx) the other is a PIII. (ice1712)
Both IDE, both working fine on 2.5.x (Haven't finished sorting
out the PIII audio yet, however - total Lack of Free Time)
The 2.5 kernel is moving into the 'must-fix' stage, so now is
the time to start running it....and send in those bug reports..
(http://bugme.osdl.org is a good place to cc: 2.5 reports,btw )

Hi!
New Release : horgand 1.0
News in v1.0 (19/06/2003)
-------------
-Added small auto-accompaniment, Looped Drums and a Bass line in
a wave table way.
-added chord recognition
-some free drum loops and bass samples.
-bugs solved in DSP effects, now more stereo, minus noises :-)
First i want to say something, personally i dont like any kind of
auto-accompaniment, sequences,
organs, because many people use it for work, and this is not good for the
musiciens. In fact i wonder the day when the musiciens dont want to record
anything, anymore. Only write the papers, and play live, that's music.
Please read the Readme file for how to add new loops and other questions.
REQUERIMENTS:
* FAST COMPUTER
* LINUX
* ALSA
* JACK
* FLTK 1.1

Hello
I'd like to know if there is a subharmonic synthesizer for linux. That is a
plugin which adds low frequency content to sound not by boosting, but by
synthesizing frequency components that are below what the signal otherwise
contains. I'm thinking about something like Delaydots Phat Pro.
If there is no such thing, is anyone thinking about developing one?

This does it for me:
echo 10 0 0 0 50 300 60 0 0 > /proc/sys/vm/bdflush
for x in a b c d e f g h; do
elvtune /dev/sd$x -r 512 -w 1024
elvtune /dev/hd$x -r 512 -w 1024
done
I also renice the sound programs to -19
I don't use any special kernels yet.
hello,
it seems that the preemptible and the low latency patches are not yet
available for the latest kernel, 2.4.21
has anybody succesfully applied older patches? any idea if the new
patches are being worked on?

So based on the feedback from the LAD community I'm guessing a Pulsar
driver isn't forthcoming from Creamware. Too bad, nice hardware with a
fairly well developed platform. Is there anyone with contacts inside
Creamware that might be able to put me in touch with the right person to
get something like this moving. Their support group went as far as to
pretend they've never heard of Linux upon contacting them... but my
guess is that not everyone may be singing the same tune. I'd like to
see if
A) creamware will release some specs for an ambitious individual such as
myself to write a linux/alsa driver
or B) creamware will sell their specs for OSS/GPL development (and
hopefully there is enough interest out there to promptly donate some
paypal funds to afford such a measure :) )
Is this avenue worth pursuing further, or should I look beyond a $1700
PwPulsar and find another DSP/DAW dev platform? Anyone have any leads?
I ran into TCelectronics Powercore Firewire which seems decently
assembled, but I do not know of any Linux efforts being made on this...
obviously it is not supported directly. Of course everyone knows RME
Hammerfall, but alas no DSP power :(. Still, I would like to give a
little return investment to all those DSP apps the community has already
written for Creamware's SCOPE platform... For those familiar with SCOPE,
know of any other integrated platforms like this that have a good
backing of community support?
Can we live without a good DSP & 24x96? Not me.
