TAPESTREA 0.1.0.4

TAPESTREA is a complete set of tools and techniques for sound design. Please download the source (GPL) and binaries below. TAPESTREA is our ongoing research project investigating new ways and tools to analyze, transform, and synthesize sound.
This is a very experimental audio software, so anticipate glorious disasters and please let us know if you run into issues.
The best way to start working with and learning about taps is to try the software, join the taps mailing list, check out the wiki, ask questions, and help shape the design.
So, whether you are a sound designer, audio researcher, composer, developer, or none/all of the above, take a spin on the TAPESTREA loom and uh, make a musical tapestry.
Main features:
- identify points of interest in the sound and extract them into reusable templates
- transform sound components independently of the background and/or other events
- continually resynthesize the background texture in a perceptually convincing manner
- controllably place event templates over backgrounds, using a novel graphical user interface and/or scripts written in the ChucK audio programming language
- leverage similarity based retrieval to locate other interesting sound components
Enhancements:
- (fixed) no more high CPU usage on reverb tails on Intel processors
- (fixed) can now have ".ck" in path names
- (added) 8-channel output
- number of real-time audio output channels can be set to N by command line: --channels N
- 8 audio buses within taps, can write to 8-channel wav file while playing in stereo
- template can be played on specific bus from chuck script
- (added) chui: chuck gui
- add user interface elements from chuck scripts
- (added) sample rate conversion
- works by default in windows
- install libsamplerate and recompile for Mac OS X, Linux
- (added) new command line option: --nogui
- instead of running gui, synthesis can be controlled from
- the command line using two or more terminals. the first
- acts as a server that receives messages from the rest on which
- templates to add, remove, play or stop.
