Hey William,<br><br>Appreciate the involvement...<br><br>Unfortunately I'm on W7 atm. My main patch uses the MSD lib and after what I thought was a trivial problem with using it in Puredyne (my regular distro), last Nov, MSD is still not working for me. Fortunately I bought a 2nd hand lappy with W7 on it early Dec, so have been working in that since. The instrumentalist is a Mac guy but that doesn't help me prepare the piece.<br>
<br>So yeah, a long way round of asking do you have a windows version?<br><br>Funnily enough I was nosy'ing around your site a couple of months ago and d/l'd the timbre ID lib for further research. Looks well good:)<br>
<br>Best wishes,<br><br>Julian<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 16 February 2011 19:02, William Brent <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:william.brent@gmail.com">william.brent@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
Good to know about the reason for the 1Mhz maxfreq...<br>

</div>I think if you can settle for fewer harmonics and work out the flag<br>
logic there's hope yet. Another thing that occurred to me is that<br>
since the scratchy noise part of the viol sound is likely what's<br>
making the tracking jumpy, you could try to remove the noise. I've<br>
been working on an external that lets you rescale the amplitudes of<br>
harmonics in a pitched signal. There's an early draft on my website -<br>
it's called [pitchEnv~]. Using that, I scaled all the harmonics of<br>
your sample to 0, so that all the pitch related components are erased<br>
from the signal. The attached wav file is what's left...basically all<br>
the scratchy noise.<br>
<br>
Then I tried subtracting that noise from the original signal (delayed<br>
slightly based on the time it takes to do this analysis), and it did<br>
clean up the noise some. It wasn't perfect, but with some work this<br>
could produce a signal you send to [sigmund~] that would be more<br>
easily tracked out. I might have time to fiddle with that later, but<br>
if you download [pitchEnv~] you can give it a shot too.<br>
