Softwares
ADMix Tools
free
The ADMix tool suite can be used for recording (ADMix Recorder) and reproduction (ADMix Renderer) of objectbased audio contents. The object-based format follows the audio definition model (ADM) defined by international standardization bodies (European Broadcast Union and International Telecommunication Union).
Angus
free
Highly realistic simulation of vocal arousal with amplitude modulation. ANGUS is a real-time voice transformation tool able to simulate cues of arousal/roughness on arbitrary voice signals with a high degree of realism. Vocal roughness is generated by highly unstable modes of vibration in the vocal folds and tract.
Antescofo
free
Antescofo is a modular score following system as well as a synchronous programming language for musical composition. The module allows for automatic recognition of the player’s position and tempo in a musical score from a realtime audio stream coming from a performer, thus making it possible to synchronize an instrumental performance with comput...
AudioSculpt
included in your membership
AudioSculpt uses a graphical approach to “sculpt” (to modify) a sound file. After a phase of analysis, the user modifies the analysis’ result directly, using only a mouse to apply the desired changes to the sound. Several types of analysis of the spectral content are shown and the user can modify the sound several different ways.
CataRT Standalone
included in your membership
Concatenative corpus-based synthesis makes use of a database of recorded sounds and an algorithm for the selection of units that makes it possible to choose the segments of the database in order to synthesize by concatenation a musical sequence. The selection is based on the characteristics of the recording that are obtained by an analysis of th...
CLEESE
free
CLEESE (Combinatorial Expressive Speech Engine) is a tool designed to generate an infinite number of natural-sounding, expressive variations around an original speech recording. More precisely, CLEESE creates random fluctuations around the file’s original contour of pitch, loudness, timbre and speed (i.e. roughly defined, its prosody).
CoMo Elements
free
Mobile webapp to create collectively sound-movement interaction. CoMo can be seen as a distributed and interactive machine learning system, using web technologies. The client side allows for recording gestures, recognition, and plays related sounds. The server side performs the training and stores the statistical models.
DAVID
free
Real-time emotional voices with DAVID (Da Amazing Voice Inflection Device) DAVID is a free, real-time voice transformation tool able to “colour” any voice recording with an emotion that wasn’t intended by it’s speaker. DAVID has been fully tested with Max8, Max7, and also supports Max6.
Forum Max Apps
free
The Forum Max Apps are collections of Max6 applications that allows rapid use of audio technologies in Max. Technologies addressed in the package include: Spat, Modalys for Max, SuperVP for Max, Max Sound Box and Omax
Gesture & Sound
free
Two max objects that let you follow temporal morphologies based on Markov models. Software modules for gesture-sound interactions The VoiceFollower allows synchronisation of sound and visual processes with pre-recorded voice. The MotionFollower allows synchronisation of sound and visual processes with pre-recorded movement.
IRCAMAX Collection
free
The two Chord Seq and Multi Fx patches in this collection offers a variety of devices for sound processing and manipulation. ChordSeq offers a simple way to create MIDI rhythms and riffs and MultiFX embeds 4 effects in one. It was designed as a simple solution to add effects to a synth (as a GeissEnveloper) like in most hardware devices.
ISiS
free
The ISiS software is a command line application for singing synthesis that can be used to generate singing signals by means of synthesizing them from melody and lyrics. The ISiS software is the result of the French national project ChaNTeR.
Max Sound Box
free
A collection of Max externals with help files and examples for real-time interactions including tools for real-time analysis, transformations and synthesis of sound. Max Sound Box technologies are completed by Forum Max Apps providing tutorials and ready-to-use modules.
Modalys
free
Modalys is an environment that lets users create unheard of virtual instruments based on simple physical objects such as strings, plates, tubes, membranes, plectrum, bows, or hammers, and making them interact. It is possible to construct objects with complex forms using a threedimensional mesh or resulting from measurements.
MuBu for Max
free
MuBu (for “multi-buffer) is a set of modules for real-time multimodal signal processing (audio and movement), automatic learning, and sound synthesis via descriptors. Using the multimodal MuBu container users can store, edit, and visualize different types of temporally synchronized channels.
Panoramix
included in your membership
Panoramix is a post-production workstation for 3D-audio contents. This tool offers a comprehensive environment for mixing, reverberating, and spatializing sound materials from different microphone systems: main tree, spot microphones, Higher Order Ambisonics capture.
OM-Chant
free
OM-Chant is an OpenMusic library for the control primitives for Chant sound synthesis module using FOFs and vocal simulations.. The Chant synthesiser allows to simulate and reproduce sung voice sounds, but also to create more abstract sounds using the FOF synthesis technique.
OM-pm2
free
The OM-pm2 library allows to perform additive analysis and extract the partials from audio files using the pm2 sound processing kernel. It also performs the "chord-seq" analysis, which extracts the main partial as chords with given time intervals.
Orchids
included in your membership
