hello list!
i got back to pd after a little break ;)
i had made a few recording which i had been trying to master in Snd, but Snd has weired set of options which i like ..but sometimes it's really unstreightforward ;(
so .. basically i just came with an idea of a mastering suit, i mean a set of abstraction which would have quite similar approach as you do have in recording studio! first thing i need right now is a mixdown patch, which is nearly ready; i wnna mix 4chan -> stereo. the panning and amplification are implemented (well, in a weired way, but i like it that way). the concept is to do all in pd, cause i couldn't get jackd running and just don't want it really. i'm sure pd is capable for doing most of what i need and this is a proof-of-concept project actually ;)
so i wish to do some editing in Snd and the do live-mode mixdown iside pd.
i have got it working quite ok with [readsf~], but it takes only play and stop control commands ;[
*IDEALY*, i'd wish to have tape-like transport with timecode and all other imaginable features, .. but actually the timecode and marking ..etc could be implemented externaly with basic objects ;) i really need some external which could rewind and fastforward with the sound like tape makes ..surely that will be fun for others as well!
i couldn't find anything really ..
can quite imagine the way of doing it with [soundfiler] and a set of tables ..but i reckon that isn't quite right in case of 4 or 6 channel files up to 10min (oor even longer). again, surely many people are gonna suggest to use jackd and jamin, but as i have just said - i'm traying to implement a pure data mastering suit ;]
does anybody know an external which would do that kind of thing?
cheers,
ilya .д
