[PD] updating table is slow
Greetings All I'm trying to update a table every second so I can see phase and frequency changes but it takes about 5 seconds to see the changes. How can I speed this up but still see a 1 second sample of the table? Also is there a way to show two signals on one graphical table?

The best estimator means that it's your best guess when someone asks you to predict pixels picked randomly in the image. It leads to least square error : (predicated - random)² is as low as it can be, on the long term. In statistics, we learn about Average, Median and Mode, usually all 3 at once, as 3 basic approaches, three kinds of «middles» of the data. What Sebastian is looking for is more like Mode, which looks like the easiest of the 3, but is actually the hardest of the 3, especially when doing in multidimension spaces (such as red,green,blue) and on continuous scales (256 values per dimension is continuous enough for what I'm talking about). There are several gotchas about peaks in statistical distributions. I wonder how one should go about this: Let's assume an image consisting of the major parts of pixels that are at most -/+3 values (from 256) apart from each other in every plane (R, G, and B). So this pixels would be spread across 7x7x7 = 343 different colors, but would look still very similar to each other. Now, the rest (minor part) of the image consists of all the exact same color value, which is much different from the colors in the major part. Am I right in thinking, that the Mode would detect the minor part (with all the exact same color values) as the most prevalent color, while the human eye most likely would see a mix of the previously described color variation as the most prevalent color? How would an algorithm work, that would take into account that all the pixels from the major part are very similar and thus would detect a mix of those as the most prevalent color?

Re: [PD] Multitrack recorder
Ok, so there should be no latency linked to writesf~. According to it's page in pdpedia, it seems like sfplay~ is the only playback object that makes it possible to do multitrack recording and overdubbing. I'm wondering why... Thinking about it now, it looks like it should be a problem with the upstream latency before adc~. And i guess the only way i can fix this is by playing track (n-1) with a delay with respect to track n equal to this latency (since time travel doesn't exist yet). Pierre 2011/9/12 hardoff goes bananas hard@gmail.com writesf~ creates a subthread whose task is to write audio streams to disk. You need not provide any disk access time between open and start, but between stop and the next open you must give the object time to flush all the output to disk.

I m faced with a serious issue... There seems to be some latency either when writing to a file or reading from it (i can't tell). This means that i can't record a second track on top of another as an overdub and playback both. Assuming that Pd's diplayed latency in the audio settings is right (???), that is 100ms, i tried triggering the readsf~ after a 100 ms-long delay, to no avail. I thought it would be a piece of cake to program this, but well, apparently it's not...? Needless to say that i can't use table as i plan to use it for possibly long recordings (my goal is to use it on a phone with PdDroidParty).

Re: [PD] Multiplying signal by complex number to create and see phase shift
On Sun, 11 Sep 2011, Rick T wrote: I plan on adding a phase shift to a signal/a wave file I import which is easy enough mathematically example: if the signal is x=sin(2*pi*1*t) to do a phase shift I would just multiply x*e(-i*pi) which would phase shift the signal by 90 degrees. But how does one multiple signals by complex numbers in PD like -i? A complex signal is a pair of signals. One is labelled «real» and the other is labelled «imaginary». A common way to think of it, is in 3 dimensions, with a time axis, a real signal axis, and an imaginary signal axis. Multiplying by a real number means multiplying both signals by the same number. Multiplying by i means the input real becomes the output imaginary, while the input imaginary is negated and becomes the real output. Multiplying by i is multiplying by both -1 and i, and you can see that you end up with three [*~ -1], of which two cancel each other, so, you can do it with just one [*~ -1]. [*~ -1] can also be replaced with a [-~] because x*-1 = 0-x. But the phase shift you are talking about is not the same thing. Multiplying by i only does a phase shift in the frequency domain, because it turns sin into cos, cos into -sin, -sin into -cos and -cos into sin (it's the same sign business as what i wrote about above). The Fourier cos components are labelled «real» and the Fourier sin components are labelled «imaginary», as in Euler's identity : exp(a+i*b) = exp(a) * (cos(b)+i*sin(b)) The meaning of real vs imaginary, in the time domain, mostly just means you can process two signals at once. Multiplying a realimaginary signal by an imaginary gain is a form of stereo mixing thought of in a different way. Generally speaking, complex numbers are a way to unify math concepts so that some things become easier to think about in the long run. ___ | Mathieu Bouchard tél: +1.514.383.3801 Villeray, Montréal, QC___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

The Hilbert transform accomplishes one type of complex signal decomposition that applies to phase shifts by complex number multiple: the complex signal c(t)=x(t) + i * Hx(t) can be written as magnitude(t) and phase(t) c(t)=magnitude(t) * e^( i * phase(t)) Then, applying multiple of e^( i * (phase shift) ) just adds the phase shift into this decomposition of the signal. As you said, it applies to not just one frequency, and it also doesn't just shift every phase by the same amount. Now, notice the hilbert~.pd abstraction---This is a pair of all-pass filters that shifts the signal by approximately 90 degrees at each frequency. You'll have to open it up and analyze it yourself to see if it really does what you want--but it's been shown to be a very practical and reliable way to accomplish phase shifts.

This means that the sound will be highly entropic, as an efficient form of compression tends to make all combination of bits equally likely. This makes compressed files become undistinguishable from white noise. you get a lot more interesting textures by playing noncompressed files, even though their «sampling» scale does not match presumed samples of sound : samples of sound are assumed to be 8, 16, 24 or 32 bits each, uniformly. Pentium-compatible executables can have such multiples and other multiples of 8 bits up to about 120 bits in the same opcode, but it's happening in an irregular fashion... each file has a mix of elements of various sizes. However, those executables are still a lot more regular than a gzip or zip2 file, which are made by reading pieces of 8 bits and rewriting them as a variable number of bits, 3, 4, 5, ..., 9, 10, 11, whatever is most efficient.

There isn't a very universal line between languages that are for programming and those that are not, but usually, being Turing-complete is thought of as the tipping-point. This means that anything with a while-statement or a if...goto statement in it is a programming language, but there are also turing-complete languages that have neither (which means that they can emulate while-loops with something else). From ML to C via Modula-3: an approach to teaching programming which seems like a torturous path to put students through. I thought you had written «tortuous» but I just realised that «torturous» also exists. Well, I agree, for introductory courses. Later in the curriculum, for a course about the diversity of programming languages, weird combinations are quite welcome, but Modula-3 is quite redundant nowadays, except when trying to teach what programming languages used to look like... Anyway, Tate wants to urge this empirical pluralism, that learning languages is good for you whether you use them or not, for purely self-developmental reasons. Yeah, and probably more so for programming languages than natural languages, because the former potentially differ a lot more from each other (unless you pick a bunch of similar ones...). ___ | Mathieu Bouchard tél: +1.514.383.3801 Villeray, Montréal, QC___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
[PD] Transposing samples using MIDI numbers
Hi, Is there a way to transpose the sound of a sample [stored in a table] to match a pitch/midi note number? In my project, when a sample is played back [using tabplay~] I would like something to tune that sample to say, midi note 69 or A 440. I would like to be able to send this number to the transposing function via a number box. I am SOO close to realizing an idea, I just need this one crucial part. Thank you for your time, Sebastian ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] Transposing samples using MIDI numbers
You need to use [mtof] to convert the midi note number to the frequency first. [tabread4~] allows variable readout speed to play back transposed samples. Check the docs for some examples of [tabread4~] and samplers (3.audio.examples/B...). Ingo Is there a way to transpose the sound of a sample [stored in a table] to match a pitch/midi note number?
