DT1 Flocking Orchestra 1.8b1
DT1 Flocking Orchestra is a useful tool designed with the ability to play music by visually conducting flocking agents in the 3D virtual space. more>>
DT1 Flocking Orchestra 1.8b1 is a useful tool designed with the ability to play music by visually conducting flocking agents in the 3D virtual space. It employs flocking algorithms to produce music and visuals. The users motions are captured by a video camera and influence the flocks behaviour. Each agent moving in a virtual 3D space controls a MIDI instrument whose playing style depends on the agents state. In this system, the user acts as a conductor influencing the flocks musical activity. In addition to gestural interaction, the acoustic properties of the system can be modified on the fly by using an intuitive GUI.
The acoustical and visual output of the system results from the combination of the flocks and users behaviour. It therefore creates on the behavioural level a mixing of natural and artificial reality. The system has been designed to run an a variety of different computational configuration ranging from small laptops to exhibition scale installations.
- The rendering process got running in an independent thread separated from the main thread.
- It runs smoothly even in case the camera is slow.
- A bug of full-screen mode for a wide display was fixed.
- Mac OS X 10.4 or later, iSight.

The Adventures of Blork 2 - The Return of Xork 1.0.2
After Blork defeated Xork and reacquired his blog, things were pretty normal, or as normal as they could be for a small green blob living in Blorkville more>> After Blork defeated Xork and reacquired his blog, things were pretty normal, or as normal as they could be for a small green blob living in Blorkville. But Xork, fleeing Blorkville, has been secretly training and raising an army of demons to quash Blorkville and his arch-enemy, Blork.
But Blork himself, thinking Xork had vanished from its life, let its powers wane and spent most of its time in a boat drinking beer. Now Xork has returned, more vengeful than ever, and has cast a dark shadow over the world and thrown Blork into prison. Is there any hope for Blork, will all your base belong to Xork?

Sound of an Image 1.1
Sound of an Image converts images into music more>>
Sound of an Image will magically transform into real music the pictures you load into it.
Enhancements:
- MIDI Export
- This was by far the top user request: SoundOfAnImage can now export MIDI files. Note that it always exports with the tempo set to 120 beats per minute; you can Change that in whatever scoring/MIDI editing app youre using.
- Bug Fixes
- I fixed a couple of the most commonly-reported bugs. They were pretty weird and minor so I wont list them here.
- Open Source
- You can download the source code to SoundOfAnImage here. SoundOfAnImage is written in Objective-C using both Cocoa (AppKit) and Carbon (QuickTime). I wouldnt exactly call this high-quality code; SoundOfAnImage is more of an art project to me than a serious piece of engineering.
Smart Label Software 1.6

Calcium Supplements 1.0
Free Dashboard health widget for your Mac more>> All in one: SAMPLIT is the ultimate solution for sampling your midi and real instruments. Everything is here: automated recording, naming, truncating, compression, normalization, looping, resampling and even playing. Samplit sends the midi notes to the midi hardware, records all the individual sounds and create ready-to-play Sampler instruments with a few mouse clicks.
Formats: SAMPLIT currently supports 9 sampler formats:
Halion (Steinberg)
EXS24 (Apple)
Kontakt (Native Instruments)
Sampletank (IK Multimedia)
Reason (Propellerheads)
VSampler (MAZ Sound Tools)
Soundfont (EMU)
Gigasampler (Tascam)
Structure (Digidesign)
Quality: SAMPLIT uses the ASIO driver on PC and the CoreAudio driver on MAC.
Supported sampling rates: 44.1, 48, 96 kHz (depending on your audio card)
Supported bit resolutions: 16, 24, 32 bits (depending on your audio card)
You can always convert to a lower sample rate and bit resolution. For example you can record a piano in 96/24 and create a nice 96/24 piano in Kontakt format and a lighter 44/16 piano in soundfont format. All the operations on samples are non destructives.
Interface: The main window gives you a clear view of your current project. Anything that you do has an immediate visual impact. You can add or remove a velocity, select or deselect a note, listen to any sample, erase a sample that you dont like...
Recording: With SAMPLIT, you are in control. The recording window allows you adjust all the recording parameters in real time: thresholds, pre-recording, post-recording, recording limit, recording pause... You can also decide if you want to record by velocity or by note.
Midi: Every program inside a project records the bank change program change and control change. When you select that program, all these midi parameters are sent back to your midi synth like a total recall. But you dont need a midi interface to use SAMPLIT, you can also record any kind of non-midified sounds.<<less
