Subject: LD collaborative cantaloupe
So I was working with a looped version of cantaloup island the other day, and it occured to me that it would be really easy to send out the loop (as one or several .wav files) to other loopers and get each of them to add a solo ......
I was thinking we could do this with five or six of us and each person could generate a solo that is one or two times through the progression ......
Then send your work back to me and I'll edit it all together. Sort of a quick way to get a collaborative work together.
Anyone up to it?
You can hear what I put together yesterday at www.aaronleese.com ..... just click on cantaloup island in the player. Naturally, I won't keep that much of my own soloing in the collaborative work ... probably just once through the progression for me. The melody is in F minor, but feel free to take the solos where-ever you like.
----- Original Message -----I don't do random ...... I don't need a computer to make a mess for me, I can do that myself. Decimal point, yes ..... you can tweek the playback speed from 0 to 16x ..... and any amount in between. The semitone buttons and tonal shifting options are for convenience in case you want to shift ONLY to notes that are tonally related.
In the case of building a chord for example .... you can record the same tone to three tracks, then shift one of them by +4 semitones(a major third) and another by +7 semitones(the fifth).
You can also stack while tweeking the playback speed up and down .... the stacked audio will be smeared across the audio (meaning you alter the record speed when you are recording and frequency shifting) ..... you can do this with decay and have a smeared, decaying, stacking, pitch shifted mess if you want .....
and yes, multiple tracks can be shifted by different amounts at the same time. You can map it all to midi controls and tweek on up and another down at the same time .....
flypaper is the stuff we had in the barn when I was a kid that hung down from the ceiling and caught all the flys.
any other questions?

But can you randomly change pitch, control the speed and range of randomness (or make that random), pitch change down to the decimal point (semi tones and smaller or linear change), and do this with multiple pitch changes simultaneously? :) Ever heard of Fly Paper? :)Kris----- Original Message -----
Flyloops can do pitch shifting too ..... there are little +1 SEMITONE, -! SEMITONE buttons on the "tweek speed" panel. You click that button a few times til you get it up to where you want to shift (4 semitones, say, for a major third) and then click the loop track you want to shift by that amount.
You can also click the "tonal shifting" checkbox and then turn a midi control knob to shift the pitch only by semitones.
I should note that this is a frequency shifter, not a pitch shiftier though ... so it speeds up playback. If the loops are set to sync (default), they will repeat early to stay in time with the master.
See the screenshot and interactive demo at: http://www.flyloops.com/demo/
If you have a PC, download here: http://www.flyloops.com/download.htm
wait about a week and there should be a video on semitonal frequency shifting on the webpage too .... I'm a bit overdue for that one.

thanks, Kris, anxiously await!
please just make sure I can understand your ins and outs, being the non max expert that I am, as you know... !

Todd - I know you talked to Jeff (we just talked as well), but I'll send you a few of my pitch patches, including one that stacks 6 pitch shifters, and a few patches that sound very Evantidish.KrisHey all,
I'm throwing this out there for our max mavens...
My Eventide will not arrive in time for a piece I need it for... TOMORROW...
damn.
so here is my predicament... Last time I tried to use gizmo~ to make a pitch shifter which sounded good, I was entirely unsuccessful.
is there any one of you out there who has a max patch which will harmonize with two additional pitches above or below the root pitch which sounds great which you'd be willing to send me? I have to play single notes and have it track well enough to sound like a chord in real time.
thanks in advance for any support you might give.
and best to all.
Todd
