SubjectRE: Reverb question
It would be good to have a library of impulse responses
in general. In relation to this one of the things that would 
be really useful would be a guide to getting good impulse
response recordings - I have been unable to find anything 
on the net.

Hi

I too have just got a SB Live - a wonderful card, specialy
since it will play multiple wave streams at the same time.

Anyway my question is about using the four speaker channels -
is it possible to make stuff in CSound that will allow access to
multiple channels and how would I play it on the SBLive.

cheers

someone said there was an ICMC paper on interpolation?
something really new has been done on this?

Sorry John.  I have not seen an impulse response from this one yet.

Tom Erbe and I have corrresponded about setting up an impulse response ftp site
that would reside at Cal Arts with a mirror here at UNT.  We haven't gotten
around to getting it up and running yet but hope to make some progress on this
by the end of the year.

with warmest regards,

Tom Erb was going to do this a few months ago when the issue
of the lack of an impulse response archive was noted.  You
might want to check out his site (sorry, I don't have the URL).

The best way to record them is probably with something like
a portable dat, great microphones and a stack of balloons and
pins to create the impulse.

There was indeed a paper at ICMC on interpolation, which was why it got added
to mt to-do list.  The conclusion seemed to be that quadratic interpolation
was worthwhile, and cibic was better, but hardly worth the time.effort.
It seemed to suggest that 'proper' sinc/convolution stuff was not really
necessary.
  That is all from memory, so I may be wrong.  I had intended looking at
quadratic interpolation as an experiment to see what peopel thought.

There is a weekend coming up.....

Hi,

I think the main problem is when creating digital waveguide filters.  The
vdelay and deltapi opcodes use linear interpolation.  This becomes a problem
at high frequencies.  44.1K/5K = 8 samples which is not sufficient for
accurate tuning.  An improved version should be written which use sinc
interpolation which is commonly found in fractional digital waveguide
filters.  If someone has deep understanding of such things please write us a
fractional waveguide filter opcode.

Bye,
Hans Mikelson

Hi,

In particular try the following sites:

http://pcfarina.eng.unipr.it/ There are links to wav's at the bottom.

http://www.arboretum.com/reverb/reverb.htm For a reverb shoot out.

There's another one I think in Texas but I can not find the link now.

This would be Roger Dannenberg's "Interpolation Error In Waveform
Table Lookup", I'm guessing.  For those who don't have the procs,
the paper ought to be online some time next week.

For the compiler and hardware used (Intel, so slow arithmetic),
there's a time/space tradeoff: for a desired SNR, higher-order
interpolation is slower but takes a smaller table.  The relationship
between table size and SNR depends heavily on the signal's brightness.

Only went up to quadratic -- I'm very curious to see how cubic
compares, actually.

BTW, I'm not sure this work applies directly to situations where the
same data is being resampled repeatedly, as in a waveguide.

Sounds like this is Yamaha's mLan proposal -- specs and such at:
http://www.yamaha.co.jp/tech/1394mLAN/

This is very promising stuff.  1394 is fast enough to push a lot of
data, and mLan does it isochronously for good timing.

My understanding of the process here is that mLan was developed
within the 1394 group; industry MIDI and audio groups are now getting
on board, harmonizing with their notions, maybe negotiating tweaks.
Might still be a bit before gear hits the streets.

I agree with Paul, but would add a balloon inflator to the equipment list.
According to Russ Berger, an acoustics designer I trust, if you blow up a
balloon until it pops, instead of popping it with a pin, you get about 10 dB
more acoustic output. Looked at from the other direction, this would lower
your noise floor by 10 dB. 

If you use a balloon inflator, you can be some distance from the balloon
when it goes off. Get as far away as physically possible, because you don't
want the balloon blowing up in your face or next to your ear. At the very
least you would get temporary threshold shift, so you wouldn't be able to
hear that last beautiful bit of reverb tail your trying so hard to get.
Other, even more unpleasant surprises may await you.

Also, if possible, try recording several files with different mic and/or
source placements in the room. This will not only give a more complete
picture of the space, but could be rewarding to use in multichannel playback
or interpolating between them for "movement" effects.

Happy popping.

-David.

Hello,
This is a little bit out of topics, but I think that you can help me, I
am looking for compositions with alto saxophone and electroacoustic
tape. I have to play this pieces (if I find one), in a saxophone
festival that will take place in Montreal in december 1998. It is very
soon, so I will apreciate very much any help about that.

Presently, I have found those title but I don't know if they are
interresting or not.

Yes. Impulse responses of rooms for reverb simulations and impulse responses

I should add that as far as I know (not far at all!), FireWire wires have a
limited length, which might not cross a wide stage. Does anyone know off the
top of their head whether this is true and, if so, what is the maximum
length?  I'll research this if we don't hear from one who knows.

I used to be married to the composer Esther Sugai who wrote a piece for
electronic tape and soprano saxophone that was premiered at a Sonic Union
concert in New York City in 1980 or 1981 by the composer and saxophonist
David Gottlieb. Where she is now I do not know. You can probably find David
on the Web somewhere.

Hi all,

Csound neophyte here.  I'm trying to implement single oscillator FM,
where the output of the oscillator modulates the frequency of the
oscillator.  According to The Computer Music Tutorial by Curtis Roads,
the result should be a waveform that approaches the spectrum of a
sawtooth with increasing feedback indexes (in a range from 0 to 2).  
Unfortunately, my attempts at producing this in Csound have not been
unsuccessful. At very low indexes, the output is just like a sine wave.
With slightly higher indexes, it produces a buzzier waveform that dips
in pitch with as the index increases.  Increase the index just a little
bit more, and the output sounds like my modem channeling the spirit of
Pharoah Sanders; a very cool, chaotic sound, but not what I was trying
to do.  (Although I will undoubtedly be using this sound a great deal in
the future, as I love sounds that break into chaotic subharmonics.
Anyone else out there own an Octave Cat? :)

Does anyone have any advice?  Is there a way of modulating the phase of
an oscillator in Csound, as opposed to the frequency?  This would
probably solve the problem, but I am not sure what unit generator to
use.  As it stands, it definitely sounds like there is no real
through-zero FM happening, as in the Yamaha FM implementation.  The
pitch ends up going down to zero, and then just stopping (i.e. silence),
before reappearing in some totally weird place.

Thanks,

John mentioned the particularly good sound of the cathedral at Smolensk
when listening to a recorded performance of a choir there. If a person
is trying to create an impulse response file in order to faithfully
reproduce the qualities of a certain space, based on hearing a
performance there, then shouldn't the presence of the audience be taken
into account?

It would seem that the presence of several hundred people would modify the
acoustic properties of the space quite a bit. That being the case, an
impulse response file created in an empty hall might give unexpected
(and possibly disappointing) results compared to what had been heard
in a recording of a performance in that same hall.

Can this be accounted for after the fact in an impulse response recording?

SubjectRE: Reverb question
Tom Erb was going to do this a few months ago when the issue
of the lack of an impulse response archive was noted.  You
might want to check out his site (sorry, I don't have the URL).

The best way to record them is probably with something like
a portable dat, great microphones and a stack of balloons and
pins to create the impulse.
