data output fft spectral analysis
Hi,
I'm a newbie - hoping to use Max as a way to get frequency analysis data to then make visual representation. I've looked up some sample patches - but they get extremely complicated, and at least for now, all I want to be able to do is plug in an audio file, get a spectral analysis, and then output that data so I can manipulate it for graphical display. Any suggestions on the simplest way to approach this? Thanks!
Hi Jane,
You might be interested in one of the toolboxes I left on the site:
Spectral Tutorials (with a link to an article if for under-the-hood exploration).
Hope that helps.
Thanks Raja.
There is also a very good old example right in Max, dating back from the first Jitter version, if I recall correctly:
Help->Examples->jitter-examples->audio->jitter_pvoc->jitter_pvoc_2D
There's a 3D version as well. Have fun!
