La mia tesi tratta il cammino storico dell'evoluzione della musica e in che modo l'informatica ha contribuito all'evoluzione e al cambiamento della musica.

Implementación de efectos de audio en la tarjeta Raspberry Pi B+

Este proyecto consiste en el diseño e implementación de un procesador digital de efectos de audio en tiempo real orientado a instrumentos eléctricos tales como guitarras, bajos, teclados, etc. El procesador está basado en la tarjeta Raspberry Pi B+, ordenador de placa reducida de bajo coste, desarrollado en Reino unido y cuyo lanzamiento tuvo lugar en el año 2012. En primer lugar, ha sido necesario lograr que la tarjeta asuma la funcionalidad de un procesador de audio en tiempo real. Para ello se ha instalado un sistema operativo Linux orientado a Raspberry (Raspbian) y se ha hecho uso de Pure Data (Pd): lenguaje de programación gráfico que fue desarrollado en los años 90 por Miller Puckette con intención de ser enfocado a la creación de eventos multimedia y de música por computador. El papel que desempeña Pd es de capa intermedia entre el hardware y el software ya que se encarga de tomar bloques de N muestras del convertidor analógico/digital y encaminarlas a través del flujo de señal diseñado gráficamente. En segundo lugar, se han implementado diferentes efectos de audio de distintas características. Así pues, se encuentran efectos basados en retardos, filtros digitales y procesadores de dinámica. Concretamente, los efectos implementados son los siguientes: delay, flanger, vibrato, reverberador de Schroeder, filtros (paso bajo, paso alto y paso banda), ecualizador paramétrico y compresor y expansor de dinámica. Estos efectos han sido implementados en lenguaje C de acuerdo con la API de Pd. Con esto se ha conseguido obtener un objeto por cada efecto, el cual es “instanciado” en Pd pudiendo ejecutarlo en tiempo real. En este proyecto se expone la problemática que supone cada paso del diseño proponiendo soluciones válidas. Además se incluye una guía paso a paso para configurar la tarjeta y lograr realizar un bypass de señal y un efecto simple partiendo desde cero. ABSTRACT. This project involves the design and implementation of a digital real-time audio processor for electrical instruments (guitars, basses, keyboards, etc.). The processor is based on the Raspberry Pi B + card: low cost computer, developed in UK in 2012. First, it was necessary to make the cards assume the functionality of a real time audio processor. A Linux operating system called Raspberry (Raspbian) was installed. In this Project is used Pure Data (Pd): a graphical programming language developed in the 90s by Miller Puckette intending to be focused on creating multimedia and computer music events. The role of Pd is an intermediate layer between the hardware and the software. It is responsible for taking blocks of N samples of the analog/digital converter and route it through the signal flow. Secondly, it is necessary to implemented the different audio effects. There are delays based effects, digital filter and dynamics effects. Specifically, the implemented effects are: delay, flanger, vibrato, Schroeder reverb, filters (lowpass, highpass and bandpass), parametric equalizer and compressor and expander dynamics. These effects have been implemented in C language according to the Pd API. As a result, it has been obtained an object for each effect, which is instantiated in Pd. In this Project, the problems of every step are exposed with his corresponding solution. It is inlcuded a step-by-step guide to configure the card and achieve perform a bypass signal process and a simple effect.

A novel continuous pitch electronic wind instrument controller

We present a design for an electronic continuous pitch wind controller for musical performance. It uses a combination of linear position, magnetic reed, and air pressure sensors to generate three fully continuous control dimensions. Each control dimension is encoded and transmitted using the industry standard MIDI protocol to allow the instrument to interface with a large variety of synthesizers to control different parameters of the synthesis algorithm in real time, allowing for a high degree of expressiveness not possible with existing electronic wind instrument controllers. The first part of the thesis will provide a justification for the design of a novel instrument, and present some of the theory behind pitch representation, encoding, and transmission with respect to digital systems. The remainder of the thesis will present the particular design and explain the workings of its various subsystems.

An evaluation of a sketching interface for interaction with concatenative sound synthesis.

This paper presents the evaluation of morpheme a sketching interface for the control of sound synthesis. We explain the task that was designed in order to assess the effectiveness of the interface, detect usability issues and gather participants’ responses regarding cognitive, experiential and expressive aspects of the interaction. The evaluation comprises a design task, where partici-pants were asked to design two soundscapes using the morpheme interface for two video footages. Responses were gathered using a series of likert type and open-ended questions. The analysis of the data gathered revealed a number of usability issues, however the performance of morpheme was satisfactory and participants recognised the creative potential of the interface and the synthesis methods for sound design applications.
