Emulating the compressor in Adobe Audition
hey guys, so I’d like to build something that works along those lines.
( here’s a video walkthrough of how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RWAjfLr6qiI#t=263s )
Basically it’s like a [function] where the x is your input and y is your output. I figured there’s bound to be a way to do something like this easily in max, but I just can’t grok it.
Do any of you have a good idea where to start? Should I use it to do like a wave transform thing? *gulp*.
thanks heaps.
basically I’m looking for a [function~]
The zigzag~ can be used as a very basic signal domain function. Look at the modes tab of the help file.
brilliant, zigzag~ takes functions line~-style messages just fine from the looks of it. A little [abs~]+[*~] and I’m cookin’ :)
Now on to emulate compressor curves. :)
Thanks a ton!
huh… I spoke too soon. Turns out I can’t seem to work this properly. Dearest JVKR, can you help me dig just a tad bit further into this? I think I’m having problems formatting function line strings properly for zigzag~.
Hmmm… I spoke too soon as well. True, zigzag does not take into account the horizontal spacing.
This calls for a feature request :)
The only thing I could up with is a lookup~.
yeah, that’s one awesome feature request, but it would be a lovely one.
