Following an idea from Gerhard Daurer, I'd like to look into displaying the waveform of an audiofile in a Gemwin. Gerhard sent me a prototype of a very cool patch combining my Particle Chamber with PMPD and GEM, which uses physical modelling to visually control the granulation of a soundfile. (And I hope he posts this same prototype here soon!)
I'm curious, too.
In his version, he has only a set number of audiofiles to choose from, so he simply loads a JPG of the waveform into the Gemwin. However, I'd like to be able to load any wav file into this and get some visual feedback (i.e. be able to see the peaks). This would be a one-time operation, and not something that would be changing in realtime (except maybe a zoom in and out), however I would like that displaying the peaks doesn't interrupt audio processing (as drawing a table would).
I'd like to use GEM for this so that the various grains could be graphically represented on top of the waveform. I'm open for PDP implementations, but I don't really consider PDP cross-platform so I'd rather stick with GEM.
Any Gemheads out there have an idea of how to go about this?
well, I don't qualify as a Gemhead, but I made a simple patch which does this using the method, I use in my msd-editor to render lots of things inside one render command. I have first seen this in Cyrille Henry's patches.
I didn't fiddle with placing the waveform in a nicer way.
Ciao
