Now Splice the Tape: Working with Soundfiles in Pure Data Taught by Derek Holzer
Manipulating recorded soundfiles is one of Pure Data?s most powerful features. However, the process of doing this remains one of the most confusing tasks for newcomers.
During this two day workshop, we will cover the basics of loading soundfiles to tables, live capturing and looping, adjusting tempo and pitch, changing the looping, starting and stopping points of your playback and an introduction to granular synthesis. We will also examine ParticleChamber as an example of a full-fledged soundfile manipulation application built entirely with Pd. Some previous experience with Pd and/or participation in the ?Ich bin ein Objekt? workshop is recommended. This workshop will end in a free public presentation of the instruments you have created, invite your friends!
Participation is limited to 12 participants.
Registration: Pre-registration is required and can be done by sending an email to info@nkprojekt.de
