FFTease is a collection of externals for spectral sound processing. Version 2.5 introduces externals for spectral tuning, spectral reanimation, spectral granular resynthesis, a spectral sampler with independent control over speed and transposition, and CA-driven spectra. Relative window size and overlap factor may now be controlled directly.

The externals are compiled for Mac OSX and Windows and may be downloaded at:

The site also contains demo sounds of some of the FFTease processes.

FFTease may be freely used for any artistic or research purpose.

Hello all,

As Cycling74 made UDPsend and UDPreceive externals for OSX and WinXP, we changed our LanBox examples so they use the new externals. All UDP examples can now be used on both platforms, without changing anything.

We also added help files for our lcudp-pack and lcudp-unpack externals, so we hope it’s becoming clear how to use them. In order to port old LCII MAX applications, we made an UDP based LCdmxOut patch to replace the old Macintosh AppleTalk external.

The “LC+_xMAX_examples.dmg.zip” (for OS X), and “LC+_wMAX_examples.zip” (for WinXP) can be downloaded from:
http://www.lanbox.com/downloads/downloads.html#other

The files includes the latest (20060126) UDPreceive and UDPsend externals from Cycling 74, as well as our TCP, Serial, MIDI, MSC, and SysEx examples and the needed externals.

Regards,

Hi All,
Here are 3 shaders that perform different types of reflective tiling
(AKA kaleidoscope effects):

www.synthesisters.com/download/reflect_shaders.zip

rf.kaleido.jxs — a proper radial reflection tile using polar coordinates.

rf.reflecto.jxs — a slightly dumber version that does 45-degree
reflections.

rf.mirror.jxs — the dumbest of all, using right-angle reflections
around a center division.

I encourage you all to play around with them, and see if you can use
these building blocks to try something a little less typical.

Enjoy!
