(wavetable synthesis)

Learning more about pd, wavetables, reading and writing files

Read Chapter 3, section 3.4 of Kreidler
Read the Kreidler Section 3.4, all the way to the end, some great stuff there.

Watch these tutorials again:
  1. Hernandez tutorial Lesson 17 Beginning Audio with [readsf~]
  2. Hernandez Tutorial Lesson 22, Advanced Audio with [tabread4~]
  3. Hernandez tutorial Lesson31, Writing and Recording Audio

  1. Make a new pd file called hw3.pd.
  2. Using readsf~, writesf~, tabplay~, tabosc4~, etc. and the tutorials, generate a six different new effects using tables.
    Document each one with comments so we know what each one does.
  3. Leaving the six separate effects intact, generate a single sound-scape using the six effects and write it to a wav file.
  4. Now use readsf~ to read the wav file in to a table.
  5. Do something fun with the new table, whose contents are read in from the file.
  6. Come to class prepared to play your sound-scape and also place it on your web site as:
    hw3.pd
    hw3.wav
    and Make sure that all original sound files you use are on your web sites,
    This is important. Please keep your web site up to date.
