CNMAT Spectral Tutorials

A large number of tutorials on using CNMAT objects for spectral (additive and resonant) synthesis. Includes use of SDIF and OSC.

Tool

Sin-synth

This module frees the user from the tedious details of synthesizing sinusoidal models from SDIF files.

Tool

int2digitlist

This abstraction takes an input integer and converts it to it's separate numerical components for output.

int2digitlist is useful in order to pass an instruction set as a single message...
One should consider this abstraction for special case usage.

Tool

key_lookup

Key_Lookup is a graphically-based keyboard that can be loaded as a bpatcher.

Tool

random-in-range

This abstraction takes a list of two integers specifying a random range, and outputs an integer as a result of that range specification.
You can obtain the number by sending the list or by polling the object with a bang.

Tool

letter2num

letter2num is a utility that allows you to convert alphabet characters into integers.
This is useful in situations where you'd like to allow your users to enter in characters that correspond to ids in your internal patch systems.

Tool

bank-tagging-tool

The bank tagging tool is a bpatcher module that allows for tagging of samples in a given sample set.

Tool

stepseri

A step-based series. This abstraction accepts arguments in order to generate a list.
Input: bang
Output: list of the series generated

Tool

letter2num-list

letter2num-list is a utility that allows you to convert alphabet-based lists into integer-based lists.
This is useful in situations where you'd like to present a user interface whereby letters are entered and the corresponding numbers can be used for your internal patch system.

Tool

audition-and-decide I and II


Both versions of audition-and-decide are meant to serve as exams created by a max programmer / administrator of said exams.
The quiz format differs slightly between versions, and consists of various questions relating to sonic descriptors the user answers. In so doing, they explore the sound collection.



Here is a summary of the obligatory requirements to create your own exam:

Tool

list-inc

list-inc is simply an incrementing list of size n. You use it by passing an int into the object which generates a list of that length. The list increments from an offset specified by the argument, or by passing in the offset message. BANG outputs the list again.

Tool

multichannel_player

multichannel_player is a bpatcher module that allows you to map n channels to m speakers using any configuration you'd like.

Simply edit a collection textfile (coll object format) with your audio files and fill out the arguments.



Example syntax for coll file:


1, somefile01.aif;
2, somefile21.aif;
3, somefile11.aif;
