Corpus-Based Sound Modelling for Computer-aided Composition. Overview OM-Pursuit is a library for dictionary-based sound analysis/synthesis methods in OpenMusic. Parametric sound representations have since long served as conceptual models in composition contexts (see e.g. the French spectralist school). Today there are a number of software tools allowing composers to derive symbolic data from continuous sound phenomena, such […]
What is the word … was created in 2008 during my program in music theory/computer music as a study for purely deterministic, rule-based algorithmic composition. Driven by a fascination of dialectic processes, this acousmatic work is characterized by an extreme reduction of sound materials, being composed exclusively from synthesized pure tones and algorithmically-transformed speech […]
Spatial Sound Synthesis Framework for Computer-aided Composition. Overview OMPrisma is a library for spatial sound synthesis in the computer-aided composition environment OpenMusic. In addition to working with pre-existing sound sources (i.e. sound files) it permits the synthesis of sounds with complex spatial morphologies controlled by processes developed in OpenMusic in relation to other sound […]

Today we reviewed some of the most popular signal processing techniques used in live-electronics music repertoire. These included: delays (tap/feedback delays) flanger, chorus, phaser reverberation filtering (IIR/FIR also sometimes referred to as resonant vs fft) modulation (AM, FM, Ringmodulation) pitch shifting and harmonization Convolution, Cross-synthesis phase vocoding (time-stretching and freezing of sounds) We also listened […]
This week we started working with audio signals in MSP. We started the class reviewing some principles of digital audio (discrete time and audio in digital systems) and discussed some basic concepts, such as the Nyquist-Shannon theorem, the meaning of word size (or bit depth), vector sizes (audio buffer sizes), and looked at the path a […]
Symbolic Audio Manipulation and Functional Batch Processing. OM-SoX is a free, cross-platform (Windows, MacOS, Linux), open source library for symbolic audio manipulation, analysis and batch processing, integrated in the computer-aided composition (CAC) environment OpenMusic. OM-SoX implements a structured framework of classes and functions comprising > 50 audio processors. Using visual programming tools, dsp-topologies can be constructed and related to […]
