Hi Everyone:

Thanks for your replies regarding my need for help. Really impressive stuff that people have sent me. However, it does seem to be all about Midi. I really need help with audio files (AIFF, Wave, etc.) For example, I would like to be able to slow down music without changing pitch, and to string two soundfiles together to get one long sound file.

Here is the most recent project that I am having trouble with: I am trying to record precisely the point in time that all of the notes begin in a sound file. Here is how I am doing it (without success:)

I set a global gNoteTimeList to empty, then start a player and tap the mouse in time with the notes in the music using a simple command:

on mousedown
        put the currentTime of player 1 after gNoteTimeList
end mousedown

I then set the callbacks of player 1 using this script:

repeat for each line L in gNoteTimeList
        put L & ",PlayTick" & cr after theCallBacks
end repeat
set the callbacks of player 1 to theCallBacks

Then I import into my stack an extremely short sound file called "tick" that is the sound of one tick of a clock and use the following script

On PlayTick
        Play audioclip "tick"
end PlayTick

to play it. When I run the player, it's pretty good, every time I run the player, "tick" plays in slightly different places. After lots of testing, it seems that the computer is inexact in both recording the mouseclicks and in playback of "Tick". I think I am probably just using the wrong tools for this project.

I would really like to stay inside Revolution to complete it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
Fred Moyer

Hello Fred,
I am also working on musical projects (like Exagofon : see > http:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9zRXi7D_lE) with RunRev. I use QuickTime Synthesizer to create sounds and notes with PlayCommand Agent X (on Macintosh OS X) of Jon Bettencourt (see Shakobox > Jacque LandMan Gay) I work also with Midi Files (work in progress... slowly...) and the principal sources or examples are : - pmd Keyboard (makeSmfLib library) > UDI 2002 > good stuffs here > http://homepage.mac.com/udi/stack/tool.html
- http://www.kenjikojima.com/

I made a little utilitary (stack named "SonMinimalMidi") to experiment sound directly in Midi by SMF (Standard Midi File), I can send it to you...
Bons souvenirs de Paris

Dear friends:

I am looking for a Revolution programmer with experience at manipulating sound files -- -- for a several projects that I am working on. Also desired: knowledge of Quicktime and Midi.

Any recommendations would be most welcome! Thanks.
