Ugh! - Software, Music and more…

As a final measure on this evening i have added OSC support to kontroll. You can specify a OSC-URL (liblo-style) for each of the axes and a range. Kontroll then sends float values. Here’s its page.

And here’s a screenshot for the eye candy:

Yet another minor update. Kontroll now speaks to LASH! Grab it from its page

Another small update to kontroll. Now the controller and channel numbering range from 1-128 and 1-16 as commonly seen in other midi applications and hardware. previously it was 0-127 and 0-15 which was probably confusing to non computer people.

Hi, a minor update to this little program of mine called “Kontroll”. On shutdown it saves the last used parameters to a file called ~/.kontroll and on startup reads it again. This saves setting it up all over again on each start of the program. You can also save special setups via the “File” menu.

Small utility to create midi cc messages from mouse position regardless of window focus (think xeyes).

It seems to almost work. :) Here’s a screenshot:

Go here for more information and screenshots - yadayada!

this is a new release of jack_convolve/libconvolve, the simple
commandline based, convolution engine for JACK.

New features are

- LASH support:

have jack_convolve be restored with the exact same commandline
parameters when you restore your LASH session. Comment out two lines in
the makefile if you don’t have LASH installed.

- Pseudo multichannel support (–pseudo-multi):

This creates an input port for each responsefile channel, instead of
only one input per response. While technically i.e. a stereo response
file is a response of a mono impulse recorded with stereo equipment it
many cases it might still sound good to convolve i.e. a stereo sum’s
left and right channel with the left and right channel of a response
file individually :) And what sounds good is The Right Thing To Do.

- Output mixing now optional (–mix-outputs):

previously all outputs from the same channel number of different
responses (if multiple responses were loaded) have been mixed together
to save on some IFFT’s. This is now optional. You can load several
responses with varying channel counts, if your heart desires. Note that
in mix-outputs mode all response files still need to have the same
channel count.

libconvolve had to be changed somewhat for these features, thus the
upgrade. Note that dssi_convolve will not link against this libconvolve.
I consider dssi_convolve broken atm anyways (still missing gui, etc).
Will take another while to get that fixed up.

Bug reports welcome, especially with odd combinations of response files
with different channel counts :)

cool, if you’re a firefox user..

Here you find a small script that spits out (to stdout) a specimen bank file which contains entries to all the files specified on the commandline.

This release makes use of the min_bin and max_bin parameters of libconvolve-0.0.3. This can be used to reduce the cpu load at the expense of quality loss. This feature is experimental. Grab it here.
