Weekly Project 001 - Making sounds from pictures ...

[gnome]

Nice work trip. Looking good, hows it sound? What spectrograph are you using?

[Depone]

Ahhhhh i love soundflour/jack

Heres my name in audio (im using izotopes brilliant RX)
Ps i made that reflective bit, i wanted to see how it would sound lol

[tripaddict]

these were made using beepmap ...



the spectral analyzer im using is ...
Spectrogram version 5.0

it sounds messy lol some pictures make nice sounds but they're pretty rare

i found a piece of seen's graffiti made a really nice noise but most pics n images are just blips n beeps

although u can manipulate them slightly ... one theory was to imprint to a frequency that was inaudible but if you go too low the image is distorted .... to high it really screams n tbh drove me mad the other night

im determined to find something pleasing to embed.

@depone ... looks sick dude i was going to embed a wobble tutorial inside a song lol but couldnt be arsed ... may experiment n try painting a picture/vista with sound

[tripaddict]

are u using izotopes to embed ? and which spectral analyzer are u using ? looks sweet pls b on pc he he

@ tripaddict

I made an image in photoshop, loaded it into photosounder, routed the audio output into audacity (recorded it the sound the image made) then i dropped the sound into Izotope RX for the visual feedback.

cool man ... RX looks nice

... let me know if you come across any melodic way of drawing pics lol .... im experimenting with brushes in photoshop with varying results

next up im going to make a really long image but made from a collage of pics see how it sounds

man its so weird talking about nice sounding pictures

[gnome]

@trip. Waht are the settings your using for spectogram? I can't get any image from it?

[tripaddict]

in fl ? ... you need to tune your bmp

use the freq. setting and length to make the bmp square

how long do u have your patterns set ? ... i have them @ 8/4 (system settings > project general settings)

u can use fls default spectroman to preview the wav/picture in fl

then use the spectrograph for analysis out side of fl

by clicking file > analyse file

and the pictures work best if they have a black background

.... if they have a white bg they will just show up as excess noise ;0)

hope this helps bud
any more Q's dont hesitate to ask

[gnome]

Naw I aint using fruityloops. I was under the impression that I could just export from audiopaint and analyze the file in spectrogram?

[tripaddict]

ah shit lol i think audiopaint draws a picture as a sound ... but doesnt imprint the picture im not 100% sure tho

[gnome]

ok I'll give voice a try out later when i get home

safe ... this melodic picture thing was alot more challenging than i first anticipated

[gnome]

I'm assuming voice will work better as it uses black and white? Infact how does it work lol.

theres an audio paint tutorial on the 1st page 2nd post by deadly habit shows how to make a beat from a picture

[tripaddict]

concluding this week dont embed pictures unless you want your tunes to sound like a fax / modem

[freeza]

ive did stuff like this before. so amazing.
