Read and write audio from a dsp plug-in

mAlo · Oct 24, 2003, 01:48 PM

Do you think is it possible to have a plug-in that reads audio data(wav) from the hd and a one that can writes the audio stream on a file?

P.S.: sorry for my confusional english

theoretically, yes -- but it is rather complicated since the data cannot be read/written directly

then a sequencer plug-in is theoretically possible!

for a plug-in that writes the audio stream, isn't it possible to adapt the peak meter?

>> isn't it possible to adapt the peak meter

no, since the peak meter is not executed on the host processor, but in the DSP space

that is, the DSP calculates the levels and host-based code simply resets the values based on timer

>> then a sequencer plug-in is theoretically possible

anyway, the sequencer-like plug-in is possible: for instance, upload WaveGenerator and tweak its controls -- you will get the sound modulated the way you like
if similar modulation is performed based on the incoming midi data...

that is, I don't believe that reading/writing audio from/to DSP is a good idea (since this is difficult), but you can use the DSP to generate any audio signal you wish

More than a pure sequencer I meant simple a multi-track-recording & mixing plug-in with a basic midi sync.

hmm... 'simple'...

I'm afraid this would be -too- difficult (especially with 'basic midi sync')

anyway, thanks for your ideas
