What is pd-lyonpotpourri

pd-lyonpotpourri is:

This Pd library is a potpourri of objects for working with audio created by Eric Lyon. Here is a listing of all the included objects:

• adsr~ a simple ADSR envelope that can be click triggered
• bashfest~ a click driven buffer player with randomized DSP
• buffet~ provides operations on a stored buffer
• bvplay~ selective playback from a stored buffer with enveloping and increment control
• channel~ access to a precise address in the signal vector
• chopper~ munging loop playback from a buffer
• clean_selector~ like selector~ but crossfades when switching channels
• click2float~ translates a signal click to a float message
• clickhold~ sample and hold a click
• distortion~ lookup function distortion
• dmach~ pattern based sample accurate drum machine prototype
• expflam~ converts a click to an exponential flam click pattern
• flanjah~ simple flanger
• granola~ granular pitch scaling
• granulesf~ granular synthesis module reading from a soundfile in a buffer
• granule~ granular synthesis module reading from a stored waveform in a buffer
• impulse~ converts a bang to a click
• kbuffer~ low sampling rate buffer to capture gestures
• killdc~ DC block filter
• magfreq_analysis~ transforms a time domain signal to a magnitude/frequency spectrum
• markov~ implements a first order Markov chain
• mask~ a click driven pattern sequencer
• oscil~ oscillator with flexible waveform specification
• player~ click driven buffer player that can sustain multiple iterations
• phasemod~ phase modulated waveform
• pulser~ pulse wave generated by additive synthesis
• rtrig~ generates random click triggers
• samm~ sample accurate multiple metronomes, with click signal articulation
• sigseq~ signal level numerical sequencer
• stutter~ a basic buffer stuttering player
• vdb~ a delay line using an MSP buffer for storage (no vector limit on feedback delaytime)
• vdel~ a delay line with built in feedback and oscillator
• vdp~ a more efficient pointer version of vd~
• vd~ a simple, self -contained delay unit
• waveshape~ a Chebychev function lookup waveshaper
