SuperCollider is a platform for audio synthesis and algorithmic composition, used by musicians, artists, and researchers working with sound. It consists of:
scsynth, a real-time audio server with hundreds of unit generators (“UGens”) for audio analysis, synthesis, and processing
supernova, an alternative server to scsynth with support for parallel DSP on multi-core processors
sclang, an interpreted programming language that controls the servers
scide, an editing environment for sclang with an integrated help system
sclang comes with its own package manager, called Quarks. scsynth and supernova both support third-party plugins via C and C++ APIs.
Playrec is a Matlab and Octave utility (MEX file) that provides simple yet versatile access to soundcards using PortAudio, a free, open-source audio I/O library. It can be used on different platforms (Windows, Macintosh, Unix) and access the soundcard via different host API including ASIO, WMME and DirectSound under Windows.
Vinyl sounds better, looks better, feels better and even smells better. But digital does have its benefits, musical metadata is one of them. Having the key, tempo and other musical metadata for your records at a glance would be useful. Disconest uses The Echonest music database to find information about releases registered on Discogs.
Add an authentic edge to your music with this essential collection of vintage drum sounds captured at one of the few remaining analogue recording studios: KERWAX. Discover two stunning kits — a 1970 Ludwig with 26” bass drum (as made famous by John Bonham of Led Zeppelin) and a 1940s custom kit fitted with original calfskin heads for a warm, rounded tone. Produced and engineered by Christophe Chavanon.
In 1992 Martin Leclerc and Mario Dorion developed a simple text file format to write lead sheets, songs with lyrics and chords, and a tool to create neatly printed lead sheets out of these text files. The tool was called chord, and the text files were called chord files. It soon became a popular way to write lead sheets and many users and tools adopted this format for similar purposes. For still unknown reasons people started calling the files chordpro files.
The ChordPro (also known as Chord) is an ASCII text file format for transcribing songs with chords and lyrics. The format was originally used for guitar, but is used for variety of other string instruments, such as ukulele, bass guitar or mandolin. Although this format is legible as it is, there are many popular programs for displaying, transposing and printing. Files in this format often have extensions such as .crd, .chopro, .pro, .chordpro or .cho.
This software integrates a small specialized synthesizer and vocal processor. It can be used to learn Byzantine Church singing. You can play from the keyboard, mouse or touch screen. MIDI input is also available. Voice functions include: pitch highlighting, synthesizer control by voice, pitch correction and voice-to-ison conversion.
On the screen there are labels with symbols of Byzantine notes. There is a metronome. The program is oriented on the Chrysanthos tuning of the diatonic scale: 9/8 – 12/11 – 88/81. The octave is divided into 17 (or 19) non-equal parts, it allows you to get all the Byzantine modes.
Features:
No installation required
Metronome
Different channels for melos and isokratima
MIDI input
17 (or 19) non-equal steps per octave: same tuning for all scales
Voice functions: highlight key, synthesizer control by voice, pitch correction, voice-to-ison conversion
Record audio
Training mode
Cross-platform: may be compiled on any platform, supported by Qt 4.x or 5.x
This program will convert just two channels to full 7.1 covered surround scene. Real psychoacoustics on the fly. Absolutely new technology by phase interference and partial time shifting. Source channels dividing to fifty virtual channels to make their magic and combine to 7.1
