PV_RecordBuf | SuperCollider 3.13.0 Help

Description

PV_RecordBuf stores FFT data to a buffer for use by a number of PV UGens.

Class Methods

.new

Arguments:

buffer	The FFT buffer.
recbuf	The buffer to save frames of FFT data to.
offset	An integer number of frames to offset into the recbuf file. Defaults to 0.
run	If > 0.0, store data to the recbuf.
loop	If > 0.0, when the end of the databuf is reached, new data will begint o overwrite old data.
hop	The hop size used in the FFT analysis UGen (this allows the PV_Player UGens to check for consistency).
wintype	The windowing type used in the FFT analysis UGen (this allows the PV_Player UGens to check for consistency).

Examples

// anazlyze a soundfile and store its data to a buffer

s.boot;

(
var sf;
// path to a sound file here
p = Platform.resourceDir +/+ "sounds/a11wlk01.wav";
// the frame size for the analysis - experiment with other sizes (powers of 2)
f = 2048;
// the hop size
h = 0.5;
// get some info about the file
sf = SoundFile.new( p );
sf.openRead;
sf.close;
// allocate memory to store FFT data to... SimpleNumber.calcPVRecSize(frameSize, hop) will return
// the appropriate number of samples needed for the buffer
y = Buffer.alloc(s, sf.duration.calcPVRecSize(f, h));
// allocate the soundfile you want to analyze
z = Buffer.read(s, p);
)

// this does the analysis and saves it to 'y'... frees itself when done
(
SynthDef("pvrec", { arg recBuf=1, soundBufnum=2;
    var in, chain, bufnum;
    bufnum = LocalBuf.new(2048, 1);
    Line.kr(1, 1, BufDur.kr(soundBufnum), doneAction: 2);
    in = PlayBuf.ar(1, soundBufnum, BufRateScale.kr(soundBufnum), loop: 0);
    // note the window type and overlaps... this is important for resynth parameters
    chain = FFT(bufnum, in, 0.25, 1);
    chain = PV_RecordBuf(chain, recBuf, 0, 1, 0, 0.5, 1);
    // no ouput ... simply save the analysis to recBuf
    }).add;

a = Synth("pvrec", [\recBuf, y, \soundBufnum, z]);
)

// you can save your 'analysis' file to disk! I suggest using float32 for the format
// These can be read back in using Buffer.read

y.write(p++".scpv", "wav", "float32");

// play your analysis back ... see the playback UGens listed above for more examples.
(
SynthDef("pvplay", { arg out=0, recBuf=1;
    var in, chain, bufnum;
    bufnum = LocalBuf.new(2048);
    chain = PV_PlayBuf(bufnum, recBuf, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0.25, 1);
    Out.ar(out, IFFT(chain, 1).dup);
    }).add;
);
b = Synth("pvplay", [\out, 0, \recBuf, y]);

// stop the synth
b.free;

// free the buffers
[y, z].do({arg me; me.free});
