Surround sound project - Script guru needed
Posted: 06 Feb 2012 15:04
Hi all.
Just to give you guys an idea of what im doing, here is a brief explanation. We have built an ambisonic surround mixer in plogue bidule.
Here is a link for those of you that dont know about ambisonics and are interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambisonics
We have been using touchosc to control bidule up untill now. Then I stumbled across lemur, lets just say im pretty blown away with the platform so far!
What Ive found so far is that in order to really harness the power of Lemur, a good knowledge of scripting is essential, and for a noob like myself there is a fairly steep learning curve.
Im using the multi ball object to position mono sound sources into the sound field, with an additional fader to control the height position.
What I really want to do is somehow rotate the balls position so that it stays the same distance from the centre. Ideally I'd like to have a forward and reverse button for the rotation direction and a fader to control rotation speed. Then another fader which controls the distance of the ball from the centre of the panner (multiball object).
This way I can pan the sound source around the listeners head whilst moving the source either away or towards him/her at the same time.
Another thing I'd like to do is somehow link each ball of a 10 ball multiball object independently to 10 single ball multiball objects on different pages. is this even posible?
If any of you Lemur gurus can help me achieve this I would be extremely grateful.
All the best
Dan
