of new opcodes that read directly from disk. Now you can timestretch
your favourite Wagner opera.
DISKGRAIN, a version of syncgrain that reads from disk
asig diskgrain Sfname, kamp,kfreq,kpitch,kgrsize,kprate,ifn,iolaps[,ioffset,imaxgrsiz]
SFname is the source soundfile name in double-quotes
kamp,kfreq,kpitch,kgrsize,kprate,iolaps as in syncgrain
ifn is the envelope function table
ioffset is the start offset in secs from the beginning of the file (default 0)
imaxgrsize is the maximum grainsize in secs, used for buffer allocation (default 1.0)
example:
iomax = 2
kol = 2 /* number of overlapped grains */
kgr = 0.05 /* grain size in secs */
kfr = kol/kgr /* freq or density in gr/sec */
kps = 1/kol /* pointer rate scaling */
asig diskgrain “Rheingold.wav”,150/kol, kfr, 1, kgr, kps,3, iomax
out asig
PVSDISKIN, a wrap-around pvocex file reader
fsig pvsdiskin Sfname,ktimescale, kgain[,ioffset, ichannel]
Sfname is the pvocex file name.
ktimescale controls the readout pointer speed (1 is normal speed, < 1 slower (timestretch),
> 1 faster (timecompress), negative is backwards)
ioffset is the start offset (secs, default 0)
ichannel is the channel number for multi-channel files (default 1)
example:
fsig pvsdiskin “Siegfried.pvx”,1,0.5,0,2
aout pvsynth fsig
out aout
Now in CVS. Manual page to follow soon (well, hopefully…)
