Kyma X - Pacarana

Als muzikale test heb ik hier een kleine zang sample van L. Nono in een Sum of Sine Bank geladen.

SumOfSines
Resynthesizes sounds from the spectral analyses stored in Analysis0 and Analysis1. The dbMorph parameter interpolates between the amplitudes of Analysis0 and Analysis1, and the pchMorph parameter interpolates between the pitches in Analysis0 and Analysis1.

A few tweaks with duration and frequency scale.:

Ik heb een tijd overwogen om mij dit toestel aan te schaffen. Biedt ongemeen veel mogelijkheden. Maar anderzijds moet je toch opletten niet in laboratorium 'gedoe' terecht te komen. Ik wil bruikbare sounds. Nu is 'bruikbaar' een relatief begrip en voor iedereen anders ntuulk...
 
Wat kunnen ook meerdere spectra cross-filteren:

CrossFilter_Long
Cross Filtering Category
Crosses an Input (excitation) with a Response (interpreted as an object’s response to being hit). When you hit an
object, you excite many of its modes of vibration (its resonances). If you record its response to being hit, you can use
that information to create a filter having the same resonances as that object. Then you can use that filter to modify
the spectrum of any Input signal.
Use the "Long" version to capture longer responses (at the expense of adding some delay through the filter).
Pete Johnston invented the algorithm and wrote the assembly language code for the CrossFilters.
Input
The Input is heard through the filter defined by the Response.
Response
Each time the value of Capture becomes 1, the output of Response is captured in internal memory for
ResponseDuration seconds. The captured signal is then interpreted as if it were the response of some object (e.g. a
resonator, a room, a piece of wood or metal) to being struck or hit by an object.

Zoals je kan lezen in de Musicradar link hierboven, is het Kyma systeen prima geschikt om de wat gangbare synthesizer geluiden te produceren.
Speciaal voor jou een JX3P immitatie met een random preset sequencer:

Speciaal voor jou een JX3P immitatie met een random preset sequencer:

Dankjewel. Ik ben vereerd.;)
Niet dat ik zo op zoek was naar JX3P sounds, die kan ik makkelijk de baas met de rest de ik hier heb staan.
Kijk bv eens naar Omnispehere. En volgens mij kan het haast niet anders dat Pacarana daar ook voor gebruikt is geweest, want die toestellen staan bij veel SD's thuis...
Het is geen geheim meer dat Pacarana veel wordt gebruikt bij film scores.

Echter, ik vind 2 dingen die ik hoor niet leuk :
- de galm die ik hoor trekt op niks en verneukt de boel
- steeds weer dat metalige, digitale randje aan al de sounds.
Maar ik laat in het midden waar dat aan ligt.
 
Ik zal hem binnenkort open maken(er klinkt een los schroefje na de laatste keer door de douane). Het is alleen een explosief instrument in sound.

Dit is wat Symbolic Sound schrijft:
The computing power of a Paca is about 5 times greater than that of a Basic Capybara-320 (no expansion cards).
A Pacarana is about 1.5 times more powerful than a fully-loaded Capybara•320 (with 12 expansion cards, 28 processors).
But this does not quite tell the whole story. Since there are fewer, more powerful processors in the Paca and Pacarana than in the Capybara, there is much less overhead. So in practice, Kyma users have reported far greater increases in computing power than the nominal figures quoted here.
 
Over het RAM gebeuren in the Pacarana:

What is the longest sample you can store in RAM?
At 44.1 kHz, the longest individual sample you can capture live or read off the disk is 50 minutes long. The total composite sample duration that you can store on a Pacarana is 200 minutes (more than 3 hours-worth). If you have an individual sample that is longer than 50 minutes, you can trigger it and stream it directly off the hard disk in Kyma.
 
Spectral Mixing:
Hiervoor is de TimeWarp module nodig.

WarpedTimeIndexCan be used as the input to any Sound that requires a time index (e.g. GAOscillators, REResonator, SampleCloud, SpectrumInRAM). Generates a time index with a variable slope so that it can move more quickly through some parts of sound and more slowly through others. You provide a set of current time points that should be adjusted forward or backward in time to match a set of ideal time points, and it generates a time index function that moves from -1 up to 1 but with a varying slope.

Werken met formanten:

TwoFormantVoiceElement

An excitation signal similar to a glottal pulse (with a randomly chosen rate of vibrato) is used as the input to a pair of parallel second-order filter sections that simulate two of the formants of the vocal cavity.

Frequency
The frequency can be specified in units of pitch or frequency. The following are all ways to specify the A above middle C:
440 hz (in hertz or cycles per second)
4 a (as the 4th octave A)
69 nn (as a MIDI notenumber)
4 c + 9 nn (as 9 half steps above middle C)
1.0 / 0.00227273 s (inverse of a period at 44.1 kHz sample rate)
The following are examples of how to control the frequency using MIDI, the virtual control surface, or a third-party program:
!Pitch (key number plus pitch bend)
!KeyNumber nn (MIDI notenumber)
4 c + (!Frequency * 9 nn) (continuous controller from 4 c to 4 a)

Formant1
For an [IY] sound, try a center frequency of 238 hz. This will be the center frequency of the first formant. This is not the fundamental frequency of the TwoFormantVoiceElement but the center of an emphasized region of the spectrum.

Bandwidth1
For an [IY] sound, try a a bandwidth of 70 hz. This is the bandwidth of the lower formant region. The narrower the bandwidth, the more "pitched" the formant will sound--also the more likely the the filter is to overflow.

Scale1
For an [IY] sound, scale this formant to 0.3. This controls the amplitude of the first formant. For the full amplitude use +1.0 or -1.0; any factor whose absolute value is less than 1 will attenuate the output.

Formant2
For an [IY] sound, try a center frequency of 1741 hz. This will be the center frequency of the second formant. This is not the fundamental frequency of the TwoFormantVoiceElement but the center of an emphasized region of the spectrum.
