Although if you know of any good way to time-stretch your sample then you can use that to help with the resolution problem. But it's still doable, just harder to see what's going on. There's a bit of a problem with low frequency sounds, they're more blurry, there are solutions to that and I will implement something satisfactory, but I'd be nicely surprised if I had anything like that implemented in Photosounder before next year. Also it's one of my favourite test sounds to work with.Ī bass line would be easy to separate from any drum sound, even with a low pass filter, except the kick drum, if your bass line is really low. I chose it because I wanted something that would seem relevant to people interested in sampling, I mean, the result I obtained is something that people would have actually paid to have. Oh no Funky Worm is anything but an easy choice. You'd think I'd know better but it's actually only the second time I've done such a thing (and the first time wasn't very well executed, and that was when Photosounder didn't even exist). I mean separating a bass line from drums would that be different/harder?How long it takes really depends on what you're working with and what you want, some things can probably be done in 15-20 minutes, but I think it will frequently take a few hours. How time consuming will this be in general?ĭid you pick funky worm cause there's already a lot of separation between the individual instruments? It's fairly easy to spot when you play the sound in Photosounder and see the bar representing where what you're listening to is in the image. Although it can get a bit confusing when it's being buried under other sounds. The lead sound is very easy to spot, it's a vertical stack of parallel and identical lines/curves. So yeah you can get a quick result but if you want to obtain something very clean it'll take a few hours, in the hardest cases, I didn't make things easy by choosing this example.

It took me several hours to process the Funky Worm sound, that was precise surgery hehe, although the first sound you hear in the blog post (the one with only the drums and vocals) was obtained as it is after probably half an hour of clone tooling, keeping in mind that we're talking about a sample almost 30 seconds long, which is a lot. How long did it take you to do, was it easy to identify the lead sound?If you want me to email you when the Mac version comes out PM me your e-mail address I'll add you to the mailing list. Hope 2 see a mac version also, maybe i might have to install VMfusion heh just to have a play with photosounder. It keeps you wondering what every photo from your computer sounds like.Yo thats crazy, am well impressed thumbsup Careful adjustment of colors and frequencies let you get just the right pitch. Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Photosounder gives you the possibility to create sound effects in a clever way. However, several tools are available to customize each layer so that you can work with the existing image. To further enhance creating possibilities, you are able to add multiple layers, but cannot include a different image in each one. Unfortunately, no implemented selector lets you carefully choose and place custom colors to make the sound even more interesting. Most of the workspace is fitted with knobs that let you modify the minimum and maximum frequency to be included in the transformation, volume, gamma for the given image, as well as several other audio related options.Īdditionally, you find several color related tools that give you the possibility to lighten or darker areas, paint white and black, as well as inverting colors. The more colorful the image the more diverse sounds Your photo is displayed in a center preview section for you to better understand what each color sounds like. Some of the most common image file types can be inserted with no restriction to size or quality. It's not quite the sound you would expect, each color tone being transformed into frequencies, so if your ears wanted a more musical approach, you better turn on the radio. In case your active project requires audio effects that are either hard to obtain or create, you might have stumbled upon a suitable alternative. You are able to record using specific devices, create with a specialized application or even transform your favorite picture into colorful notes, easily accomplished with Photosounder. There are several ways in which sound can be generated and saved to the computer.
