playing with Benjamin @ elektrosmog

09/08/2017

In June I’ve been in Mannheim again, playing a gig with Benjamin Brodbeck @ zeitraumexit. It’s good to see that the same crew (Flo&Volker) is still there and that their concert series “elektrosmog” is still happening.

Core Audio: a quick example using Extended Audio File Services

01/01/2017

This post is more a reminder to myself: every now and then I keep running into Core Audio – and need to start all over again, cause I can hardly remember anything from the last encounter… Yes Core Audio is quite convoluted as it goes very deep, but it opens a lot of possibilities.

MaxMSP: Reduce CPU load by avoiding excessive GUI updates

24/12/2016

In MaxMSP it’s very easy to create relatively good looking graphical user interfaces (GUIs) quickly, which no doubt can be very helpful in a lot of situations (user guidance, performance, teaching etc.).

a 64-bit version of sigmund~

29/06/2015

I’m slowly trying to replace all external objects in my performance system by 64-bit versions, so I can finally run MaxMSP in 64-bit mode. Most of the externals in my setup are from code that I wrote myself – so no big problem updating those. But one of the few externals from other people that i use is the famous sigmund~ object by Miller Puckette.

using vDSP_deq22 correctly

04/04/2015

On a mac the Accelerate framework delivers a lot of very useful DSP functions. Most of them are pretty straight forward to use, some are a little complicated. One of those is vDSP_deq22 / vDSP_deq22D which implements a vectorized 2 pole 2 zero filter (biquad).
