Hi all,
Question: Has anyone attempted to generate sound along with the a MegaPov
animation, based on events during the animation?
Explanation:
I am happily exploring Christoph Hormann's excellent Mechsim facility.
While my PC is busy rendering a bouncing cube, I thought how nice it would
be if sound were generated with the frames. Something like a bang or so
whenever a mass hits the environment.
Since simulation time is known on every such occasion, one could store the
information in a MIDI file, and generate a .wav file from that.
Now I am not an expert in sound, and only barely capable of sensible
programming, an I hesitate to embark on this, possibly only to find that
someone else has done this before, and far better than I could ever dream to
do it.

Have a look at this and see if it is what you are after.

Hey, thanks,
This looks good, it is surely fun, but it does exactly the opposite if what
I look for.
This program generates (pov code for) frames of a movie from a given line of
notes.
I want to generate a line of notes (in Midi format) based on events in an
animation.

Oh, sorry. There's some stuff from U&I software on the Mac that can read in
a video file and output audio - maybe just digital audio
http://www.uisoftware.com/ . It's commercial stuff, however.
And I can tell you about a few algorithmic composition tools that will scan
a bitmap and extract data that can be used to generate MIDI notes - but not
an animation.
Let me know what you come up with.
Best,
Dennis

Nothing to be sorry for. Your link was really worth visiting. I kept the
program in my toolbox, since it may be of use one day.
For my original probelm, I am afraid I have to go down the programming track
myself, one way or the other, and report here if and when something
materializes.
Thanks again.

Because I do both music and animation, I would love to hear about your
results. I don't use any mapping of one data set to another - I either
compose music to the animation or compose an animation to the music
(www.dennismiller.neu.edu/animation.html warning: long load times and
serious compression artifacts ahead) but I am always interested in new
options.
Best,
D.

Yes, that is the common way to solve this. If you take Adobe Premiere you
can view
movies frame by frame. Then it's a tweaking task to adjust the audio tracks
to
the frames. Can't see why you should generate that in the graphics program.

Hi Stefan. You can see some of my work at
www.dennismiller.neu.edu/animation.html
Indeed, I do use Premiere. But the previous thread was about using MIDI to
generate graphics and I mentioned that I don't use one medium to control the
other, which is what Frans is trying to do.
Best,
D.
