Hi All,
i'm trying to make a sustained note from a guitar in input.
What i would like to do is a really long note with attack removed to obtain
something like a continuos sound without much amplitude variation.

I tried somethings with flooper, mincer, ecc. but i'm not giving a good result.

Have You some hint or idea to share?

Thanks,
ciao,
francesco.

Have you tried using pvsfreeze? I did something like this quite some time although I've long since lost the code. I checked for spikes in amplitude in the incoming signal, and used these to trigger a spectral freeze. Note I was writing a very short loop to a table for playback as I don't think the pvs opcodes were even available then. If I was doing it now I would use pvsfreeze. My simple experiment worked ok for very slow melodies. It sounded quite a mess with quick notes.

yeah, I've had good luck with capturing N pvs frames, and using a noisey LFO or a random walk to navigate back and forth across those frames, giving a natural feeling of the sound evolving over time semi-unpredictably like a real note rather than a mechanical sounding freeze

Pvsbuffer write/read can also be used if a single-frame freeze is not what you want.
