PELLE8001, even more chaotic music sequencer
Even more chaotic 8-step sequencer.
Each step has square wave oscillator, sine wave oscillator, wav file sampler and noise generator.
Lenght of steps can be controlled, overall and individually, and sequentially muted.
Two square wave oscillators modulate each other and a third one modulates the combined two. Optional random frequency modulation on each one of them with control for range and speed.
Sine wave oscillators can be pure, randomized with control of range and tempo, with up/down sweeps or LFO.
Samplers can be set to start and end of loop, playback speed goes from -200% (reverse playback) to 200%.
Generators and left/stereo/right outputs on each step can be sequenced.
Each step has stereo delay.
Recording to wav files possible.
Enjoy.

sample output: gene-seq-to-music-via-pd~.mp3
Input:
- an RNA sequence .txt file (one is provided, "data/data-001.txt");
- laid out in 3 columns of;
- g,a, c and t's;
- with either a g,a, c, or t in each column.
(The raw data is available for public use at many sites online, ex. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/advanced)
(Currently, laying the file out in 3 columns must be done manually. Though, to those more inclined, I do think it would be relatively easy to write a parser. If you do write one, please, share it below).)
Process/GUI:
- Select a pitch [0..127], velocity [0..127], and duration [0..4]={1/16,1/8, 1/4, 1/2, or whole note in 4/4 time, i.e. 125ms^x} for each of the four nucleotides, i.e. g, a, c, and t.;
- Click [open];
- Browse to a data file (example, "data/data-001.txt") and open it;
- Click Stop|Play.
Behind the scenes:
The patch cycles thru each line of the data file and bangs each line and using [makenote] constructs a note of given pitch, velocity, and duration as determined by whether the value in the 1,2, or 3rd column is g,c,a, or t.
Once that note has played for the given duration it bangs (by changing the metro delay) the next line/note.
The data file included is from the NCRI website https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/advanced page and is for "coxsackievirus B4 strain /ca/Roma partial VP1 gene", i.e. meningitis.
The .mp3 file above is an example (with quasi-random inputs for the GACT pitch, velocity, and duration values. "Quasi" especially since I do not understand midi, chords, scales, etc.. I would think, if one knew such things, they would make the pitches form a chord.)
I hope you find this as fun(ny) as I do.
Peace, go with Love, and Music flowing out of your heart,
-Scott
p.s. the synth used is from "pd-help/J08.classicsynth.pd". If you need any help getting this working, just let me know and I will be happy to provide as much as I can.
mp3 playback for windows users?
I'm wondering if any windows users have had success with any mp3 playback externals?
I tried mp3play~ in iemlib which wouldn't create, and also readanysf~ which also wouldn't create.
I think I followed the installation instructions correctly and it's more likely that it just isn't working.
thanks
Psychedellic Audioguide using MobMuPlat or PdParty
Hello,
I make psychedelic audioadventures, guiding multiple, synchronized people with headphones into wonderlandish stories. Sometimes leading them to crazy places that I acoustically augment with soundtracks and binaural stereorecordings from the exact places where people walk bye to create pré- and déjà-vu-ish time-flashs (iE you hear the door infront of you and the white, invisible rabbit tells you that you are too late - so you open the door, hear/feel the exact sound again...and again…). Using synchronized instructions I puppeteer multiple participants into interactions.
I used to manually synch multiple mp3-players but also worked with free gps-audioguide software. Also I have a little yet not perfect web-app-flasmobgenerator to synchronize up to an infinite amount of players with individual audio streams.
One of my biggest inspirations was the RjDj-app that was released at the beginning of the iTimes but sadly shortly after taken from the app store - and now after all this years I finally discovered the Mobmuplat and PdParty-apps and the possibility to not only play the old RjDj-scenes but also to modify them …so I decided to learn some PD! ..which is really not easy at the very beginning, but it literally opens worlds and my brain is working hard to understand all this amazing scenes and different patches out there…
First I really want to thank you from my heart for all this amazing and inspiring works - especially for sharing it! This makes me so very happy and I feel this is really the way it should be (well, a little easier maybe)!
2nd I want to apologize for my questions - i feel still so stupid PD-wise…but:
I am trying to learn how to port a PD-patch to MobMuPlat or PdParty.
Mainly I try to trigger recordings, playbacks and live-effects by a clock.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2643812/AlicePD.pdAlicePD.pd
Today I managed to write a patch that records two samples (A and and to plays them back later in a different order (BA).
I found a way to let the sec counter trigger a bang to the recordings/playbacks but I still don´t know how I could add the minutes into that trigger (iE record at 3m14s for 10s)?
In one of the tutorials I´ve heard that there are different ways to record sound: one to memory and one to disk and that a disk recording might stop audio playbacks?
How could I timetrigger live-effects - iE at 4m33s the reverb for the mic-in slowly gets bigger for 1min and then fades back to normal // or the same with a delay // or with a voicepitch rising or falling // or with the volume of the unfiltered live-monitoring (adc~ -> day~) or the volume of the audiofile that plays back simultaneously ->
Is there any way to play back an mp3/or Ogg-file with PdParty or MobMuPlat? I found some unofficial patches that seem to be able to let PD stream shoutcast/or icecast mp3-streams and also sth related to ogg(unofficial), but I don´t really understand if it is possible - and HOW? And on MubMuPlat/PdParty?? It´s just that I can´t put an 1hr wav-file onto peoples iThing.
I found a LANdini tutorial patch and an Ableton-link-patch and now I am wondering if i could somehow synch multiple phones at the same time to play back different audio files at each device while applying 1. /2. and 3. …and if it is maybe even somehow possible to do that via web?!
I am a bit confused about using PD-extended or unofficial or 0.47xyz(vanilla?) …Which one is better to use for the MobMuplat/PdParty development? PdParty seems to name several objects differently, which doesn’t´t allow me to run/test the scenes on my Mac - is there any editor or sth like->
I found an old app from the RjDj development: RJC-1000, but I can´t make it work. Anyone managed to use this app? It seems so much easier then MobMuPlat-editor(+PDwrapper) to connect the patches with a user interface. Did anyone managed to create a working MobMuPlat-interface? I couldn’t´t find any tutorials on that. Would be so great to understand that part.
I also found several scenes and patches that make use of the GPS-data and I would love to learn more about that and understand those patches to use GPS as triggers for my Audiotours. Is there anyone who could help me or maybe even make a tutorial on that?
Last but not least: when switching between apps (macSierra) with cmd+tab to PD (extended and 0.47, too) I have to do it everytime twice …drives me really mad - anyone has the same problem or any idea how to solve this ?!
Is there anyone in Berlin who I could meet to learn sth?
Thank you all for your help and if you come to Berlin one day, please let me guide you to Wonderland!

Mp3 playback on osx?
I'm developing an app that contains a 4.80 second musical groove that loops. When played in Pd with au or aiff files the groove accurately loops. When I convert au or aiff files to mp3"s, the length varies by .05 seconds and the loops are glitchy. The mp3's played back using quicktime are not exactly the same length as the au or aiff files from which they were compressed. How do I get the mp3's to be exactly the same length as the au/aiff files? Thanks
MP3 degrade plugin
Pd people,
I'm looking to make an audio degrader plugin. Is there some way to degrade a signal in realtime so it sounds like a low quality MP3? Thanks.

Mp3play~ lag?
I'm using [mp3play~] to trigger short samples. I've noticed that sending a stop message to kill the playback isn't too snappy. Noticeable delay.
So I was playing around with the pause message, because it's more immediate. But when I send a pause, then a stop, then re-open the mp3 file I'm trying to play and then re-start... it doesn't start at the beginning. It picks up where it left off.
I was thinking I could cut off the volume as an immediate stop, then sending the stop message to actually stop the thing. Or something of that nature.
Does anyone have any experience with [mp3play~] and it's quirks? Is there a message flow that works the best for rapidly playing and stopping mp3 clips? I'm currently sequencing small mp3 clips, so trigger lag isn't too much of an issue. But would it be feasible to have a live sampler that used mp3 files instead of wav?
Any help, thoughts, discussion appreciated.
Some of my PD tunes
These are some of my most recent tunes. These are purley PD.
I'm making some sort of microtonal/Xenharmonic synth or sound generator. haha!
These 3 have drum sounds I shamelessly borrowed from OBIWANNABE he done such a noce job at programming the drum sounds. Of course I came up with my own random trigger and delay pattern though. The synth sounds are from a homemade chaos fm feedback with sample and hold thing that I call the fmbrot.

This one has some distortion in it from alindx. I had the same idea for distortion when I was in college. clipping with diodes and averaging with the original signal via opamp. you can also briefly hear my karplus strong 12 string from about 2:00 to 2:38.
http://sites.google.com/site/pollypulsarsvisitingvertexes/justbpfmbrot.2.mp3
if you go to my http://sites.google.com/site/billystiltner you can hear more of my PD stuff. Most of the recent stuff was done with the assistance of PD acting as a pitchbend microtuner into Reason. My favorite of these is PHihr16.6 that you can only find on my youtube channel at this point. If you see a song that has draw in the name then it was done using the table draw thing from PD then there's my mandelbrot tunes which were done using only PD.
Then there's this one http://sites.google.com/site/pollypulsarsvisitingvertexes/PhimenGabbaFraca.PhiHr16.7.mp3 which was done using my mandelbrot melody generator (based on Elaine Walker's Chaos Melody Maker http://ziaspace.com read her thesis it's interesting) in PD synced / or started at the same time and BPM with drums I done in Reason. I thouroughly enjoyed this one it was good to hear that old amen drumbeat after a long break from the amen. hahaha!
Well have a good day and enjoy.
