Patch presentation

The concert patch main window is structured this way:

  • on the left side : Interface for checking and modifying parameters of live treatments.
  • detect_&_harmo : detect, count and harmonize attacks.
  • syllabes_soprano : yin detection to separate voiced and unvoiced parts.
  • psychoirtrist : make choir with 1, 2, 4, 7, or 11 voices.
  • IO_tuba : detect attacks, and apply 2 resonators to make “I” and “O”.
  • footsteps : sound files of foot steps.
  • fichiers_son : sound files.
  • reverb_A and reverb_B : 2 different reverbs.
  • panning_edit and panning_matrice : panning.
  • on the right side : Step by step initialisation.

A Midi mixing desk (like BCF2000 from Behringer) is used to control volume output from all treatments.
