New Max/Jitter abstractions

February 29, 2004

New Max/Jitter abstractions:

  • tl.jit.lin2dB – convert jitter matrix values from linear to decibel
  • tl.jit.dB2lin – convert jitter matrix values from decibel to linear
  • tl.pbap – position-based amplitude panning. This algorithm was first develloped for the Living room project 2003.000 Most algorithms for audio panning in a multi-speaker setup is based on the notion of a “sweet spot” or ideal listening position e.g Spat and VBAP. For the Living room project we used 16 loudspeakers positioned in a gallery space made up from three semiclosed rooms. The algorithm offered a simple CPU-effective and convincing method for letting sounds walk around the gallery space.

These will eventually become publicly available as part of tl.objects.
