EarToner 1.1
EarToner is an ear training software more>>
I originally wrote a rough version for myself just for identifying intervals. When I mentioned it to other musical friends they were very interested in using it also. I thought I would just formalize it a little more and release it for free on the internet to whoever wants to use it.
Main features:
General:
- number of items played - currently the scoring only indicates how many correct guesses youve made and how many guesses youve made total.
- playback mode - click on the buttons and have it play the interval/chord (currently only has a testing mode, so clicking on the buttons is considered a guess at the last interval played)
- documentation - info on working with the various modules and what their settings can do.
Intervals:
- all intervals from a minor second up to a perfect 15th (two octaves) in half step increments.
- direction of intervals (only play up or down, or both randomly)
- set tonic - this helps newer ears learning to hear just a few intervals in from a single reference point.
- allowable range - keeps the notes within a certain number of octaves above and below middle C so it doesnt get too ridiculous.
- ability to play the intervals separately or together.
- number of intervals - I found that after awhile I could start hearing intervals pretty close to 100&pct of the time, so I thought Id add an extra twist, in the spirit of most college ear training classes requirement for dictation. This helps to develop an intervallic memory of sorts. EarToner will play a certain number of pitches, and you must identify the interval between them in the proper order.
- note duration
Chords:
- chords able to be tested on Major Triad, Minor Triad, Augmented Triad, Diminished Triad, Major 7th, Dominant 7th, Minor 7th, Minor-Major 7th (1, b3, 5, 7), Half-Diminished 7th (1, b3, b5, b7), Full-Diminished 7th (1, b3, b5, bb7), Augmented-Major 7th (1, 3, #5, 7) and Augmented 7th (1, 3, #5, b7).
- inversions - ability to select which inversions of chords as well as the chords you wanted to be trained on.
- allowable range - keeps the notes within a certain number of octaves above and below middle C so it doesnt get too ridiculous.
- set tonic - probably if someone is going to want it for intervals, theyre going to want it for chords too.
- arppeggiation of chord - seems handy for hearing all of the intervals in the chord when trying to learn new chords.
Scales:
- scales able to be tested on Major (Ionian), Natural Minor (Aeolian), Harmonic Minor, Melodic Minor, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Locrian, Whole Tone, Chromatic, Major Pentatonic, Minor Pentatonic, Blues, Diminished Whole/Half, Diminished Half/Whole.
- allowable range - keeps the notes within a certain number of octaves above and below middle C so it doesnt get too ridiculous.
- set tonic - same as above.
Tuning:
- Playing of two notes to identify whether the second note is sharp, flat or in tune
- Variable length of notes in time.
- Variable offset of the second note from the first note, from being played at the same time to playing immediately after the first note.
- Ability to select different sound (MIDI patch) for the second note
- User selectable maximum detuning, so the second note can be out of tune from the first one as far as a whole step (good for young ears learning to identify lower and higher).
- Changeable granularity for the second note, so the detuning of the second note can be anywhere from 1/64th of a whole step all the way up to a whole step
- set tonic - same as other modules
- interval - separate the two notes by a set interval. Good for string players and others that need to learn to tune in 4ths, 5ths, etc.
- direction - for using an interval other than unison allows the second note to be above, below or randomly selected by EarToner.
Enhancements:
- This release adds new playback functionality of incorrect guesses.
- A simple Windows executable has been created.
HuginOSX 0.7.0
A panorama Tools frontend and photo stitching program. more>> A panorama Tools frontend and photo stitching program.
With HuginOSX you can assemble a mosaic of photographs into a complete immersive panorama, stitch any series of overlapping pictures and much more.
HuginOSX uses the same open source library used by many other software including shareware like PTMac from Kekus Digital. HuginOSX is, however, free and you can start making panoramic photos without buying any expensive software or equipment.
You can use your usual digital camera to take photo, and HuginOSX can stitch number of photos together quite nicely.
For advanced users, HuginOSX also has many features available for making panorama with special equipment including two types of fisheye lenses.
Enhancements:
- Online help
- Hugin now has comprehensive help documentation for the
- entire user interface, the manual now includes glossary
- items explaining many panorama stitching and related
- photography concepts.
- Languages
- New translations include Slovak, Korean, Bulgarian and
- Spanish. This means that hugin is now usable with a total
- of twenty languages.
- New Assistant panel
- Creating simple panoramas is much easier, hugin now starts
- showing an Assistant with a simple 1-2-3 approach for
- loading images, aligning and creating the final output.
- The Assistant will estimate lens and camera parameters,
- then pick a suitable output projection and size, advanced
- options are still available for manual adjustment.
- Photometric model
- Previous versions of hugin and panotools had basic support
- for correcting vignetting and exposure differences between
- photos.
- This has been completely overhauled, hugin now internally
- uses the EMoR model for representing exposure
- photometrically. This means that the camera response curve,
- vignetting, colour balance and exposure can now be
- optimised in much the same way as geometrical properties
- such as position and lens distortion.
- The result is that blending between photos is better than
- ever before.
- HDR
- Previously hugin supported High Dynamic Range imaging
- solely by allowing stitching of HDR floating-point TIFF
- photos - These images themselves had to be created in
- another tool.
- Now, thanks to the internal photometric model, hugin can
- now create HDR output from normal exposure bracketed
- photos. The photos dont have to be perfectly-aligned,
- they dont even need to be nearly-aligned or have
- consistent exposure differences - The hugin optimiser will
- sort all this stuff out, and the stitcher will create
- OpenEXR or TIFF HDR output files for later tonemapping or
- use as lightprobes.
- Exposure blending
- HDR and tonemapping isnt for everybody, enfuse introduced
- exposure blending to the world, and hugin supports aligning
- and fusing bracketed stacks of photos, perfectly, all as
- part of the stitching process.
- So now with hugin-0.7.0 and enblend-3.2 you can create
- realistic, photographic panoramas that have no over-exposed
- or under-exposed areas.
- Makefile stitching
- hugin-0.7.0 introduces a new stitching back-end: previously
- the various stitching tools were executed directly by the
- GUI, now all the commands required to generate the output
- are written to a Makefile which is then processed
- independently of hugin itself.
- Aside from easier debugging and customisation; this
- background stitching allows you to get on with creating a
- new project while waiting for the previous job to finish -
- Stitching can also be deferred or shifted to another
- machine, even headless servers can now be used.
- Projections
- Hugin has always had the ability to save panoramas using
- simulated normal and fisheye lenses, or 360 degree
- cylindrical and spherical projections.
- Now a whole series of alternative cartographic mappings are
- available, of particular interest are the conformal
- stereographic and Mercator projections which can be used to
- show extremely large angles of view with no local
- distortion.
- Project templates
- Hugin project files can now be used as templates for new
- panorama projects. This is useful if you take a lot of
- panoramas with exactly the same camera positions.
- Other improvements
Theres a whole lot of other new stuff in this release:
- numbering in the control-point editor, straight-line
- control-points, numeric transform, clicking to rotate the
- preview, a straighten button, cropping of the output and
- probably more.
- Command-line tools
This release provides new command-line tools:
- align_image_stack: align a nearly-aligned stack of photos
- pto2mk: create a stitching Makefile from a pto project
- vig_optimise: optimise photometric parameters
- tca_correct: calculate lens chromatic aberration
- hugin_hdrmerge: assemble a bracketed stack to HDR
- matchpoint: classify control point features
- Control point generators
- Hugin doesnt yet ship with a Patent Free control point
- generator. So you either need to pick control points
- manually - Not as difficult as it sounds - or install and
- configure one of the following control-point generators as
plug-ins, in no particular order:
- autopano-sift-C
- panomatic
- Autopano-SIFT
- Autopano freeware version
- Upgrading
- Upgrading from previous versions of hugin should be
- seamless. If you do have problems with old settings, these
- can be reset in the Preferences by clicking Load defaults.

ZeusDraw 1.3.4
ZeusDraw is a convenient program for vector drawing with a graceful interface, a more intuitive approach to paths and great brushes. more>> <<less
Strandz 0.1.1109
API for connecting users with their data more>> For most common pitch problems, Auto-Tune Evos Automatic Mode instantaneously detects the pitch of the input, identifies the closest pitch in a user-specified scale (including minor, major, chromatic and 26 historical and microtonal scales), and corrects the input pitch to match the scale pitch. A Retune Speed control lets you match the retune rate to virtually any performance style.
Automatic Mode Features:
* Real-time pitch shifting (Native versions only): Auto-Tune Evo s new Transpose control provides extremely high-quality real-time pitch shifting over a two-octave range (+/- one octave in semi-tone increments).
* Formant correction (Native versions only): While Auto-Tune s classic pitch adjustment technology still provides the optimum results for the very small intervals typical of conventional pitch correction, for larger intervals or outright pitch-shifting, engaging Auto-Tune Evo s Formant Correction function preserves vocal character over a much wider pitch-shift range.
* Throat modeling (Native versions only): Utilizing the latest incarnation of Antares unique throat modeling technology, the new Throat Length control actually allows you to modify vocal character by passing it through a variable-length physical model of the human vocal tract.
Note: AU - For Logic Audio, Garage Band, Digital Performer, Ableton Live, Soundtrack Pro, Bias Peak and some other AU compatible hosts.<<less
