In fairly close succession I did a project that assembled audio clips into sentences, and I built a tool that reads in an AIFF file of say a vocabulary list being read and writes out the individual words to individual AIFF files. In the process of learning to write AIFF files at all, I was generating samples by formula (mostly sine waves), saving them to external files and playing them back to make sure they worked. With those two concepts floating in my head I started to think about stringing phonemes together, trying to find formulae for phoneme waveforms, and maybe, just maybe, synthesizing speech (or music). All idle thoughts really, pie-in-the-sky stuff. A slightly more down to earth use might be the ability to produce sound effects as needed and appropriate to changing situations. Yeah, it would be a lot like imaging lingo, but for sound. -- Carl West [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://eisen.home.attbi.com I have no superfluous leisure; my stay must be stolen out of other affairs; but I will attend you awhile. - Isabella, Measure for Measure, Act 3 Scene 1 [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
