For the second part of your question I guess Miller's book would be a good place to start, given that it also provides examples in pd. <br><br><a href="http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques/latest/book-html/">http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques/latest/book-html/</a><br>
<br>For a more advanced source, though not an online resource, the Musimathics books look thorough and come highly recommended. <br><br>-m<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2011/9/30 Benoît Fortier <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:benoitfortier@yahoo.ca">benoitfortier@yahoo.ca</a>></span><br>

<div>Hello all,</div><div><br></div><div>I'm using the sigmund~ object to get amplitude and pitch information for the loudest peaks of a signal (see the sinusoid-tracking help patch, which can be found in the sigmund~ help patch). Out of that information, I want to create, let's say, 5 midi notes corresponding to the 5 loudest peaks of the
signal. How would you transform the peak amplitude outputs of sigmund,
which are linear, into midi velocities in order to make those 5 notes
sound with the same relative amplitude that they have in the analysed signal?</div><div><br></div><div>It might be a stupid question but what are those linear peak amplitude values exactly? Do they have any unit?<br></div>
<div><br></div><div></div><div>More generally, can you give me any good reference, preferably online, that explain in details the physic and mathematic behind sound amplitude? I manage to work many things out by myself but i have to admit that my actual understanding of it is a little bit superficial. By the way, I have a good background in physic and mathematic so don't hesitate to suggest me more advanced readings.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thank you! I've learned a lot from you already just by reading the list.<br></div><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div>Benoît<br></div></font></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
