I had to reupload because I completely forgot the 'processing audio' part. To avoid the video for becoming too long I cut all the excess footage and made some room for the missing part.
Wow, the DPO chimes in challenge 2... always good to have a reminder that I haven't even scratched the surface yet in exploring sounds. Well done, sir.
@@CinematicLaboratory 💯 Hells Yeah. I sadly sold my DPO, but it was only because I tried Brenso and that wave shaper is insanity and the FM has a timbre that's either a chefs kiss 🤌 or the bane of the uninitiated 👿.
Well sir, .. this video being quite timely for me (AKA, a modular babe in the woods) & your mention of the "80/20 rule" .. I was just recently feeding Mordax Data's waves out to Rings, and so on .. & ooo, there's more to experience, in just doing this .. let alone, something such as what you've demonstrated. Thanks, much .. :)
13:00 So good to see Clouds' pitch-shifting and lower quality modes get a shout out! I've been playing with Monsoon doing exactly that for a while and it is a beautiful nightmare on tap. And what are low sample rates if not a nice cheap digital LPF...?
I love the sound of the DPO, chewy and meaty. I’m struggling a bit with the Spectraphon - there’s something about it that reminds me of a dentist’s drill.
Noticed two errors right at the start: The Make Noise Spectrafon captures (up to) 1.024 samples for each one of up to 16 spectra, but the sound generation uses a DAC to construct a continuous analog output. And of course all possible waveforms can be constructed using only sine waves. Duh 😝
After just receiving a comment (and yes, I did RTFM ;-) here are some additions: Spectrafon does not care if the source is polyphonic. No mention in the manual, but I assume the analog waveform, be it mono- or polyphonic is sampled as it enters the ADC for further digital processing down the line. #1 Spectrafon samples the audio stream up to 1024 times generating a set of spectra. This takes about one second if not clocked externally. But the playback of audio happens at the sample rate of the DAC, which is up to 192khz. And in the process it of course generates an analog waveform that is continuous-within the restraints of Shannon’s sampling theorem. #2 According to Fourier all waveforms can be decomposed into (a possibly huge) number of sine waves of varying frequency and amplitude.
