Example C06.signal.to.control.pd (not pictured) demonstrates conversion from audio signals back to numeric
|
|
control streams, via a new tilde object introduced here.

<A ID="3849"></A>convert audio signal to control messages. This always gives the most recently

computed audio sample (fast-as-possible conversion), so the exact sampling
|
|
time varies by up to one audio block.
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
It is frequently desirable to sense the audio signal's amplitude rather than
|
|
peek at a single sample; Example C07.envelope.follower.pd (also not pictured) introduces another
|

object which does this:

<A ID="3850"></A>RMS envelope follower. Outputs control messages giving the short-term RMS
|
|
amplitude (in decibels) of the incoming audio signal. A creation argument allows
|
|
you to select the number of samples used in the RMS computation; smaller numbers
|
|
give faster (and possibly less stable) output.
