soundgen (version 1.0.0)

morph: Morph sounds

Description

Takes two formulas for synthesizing two target sounds with soundgen and produces a number of intermediate forms (morphs), attempting to go from one target sound to the other in a specified number of equal steps.

Usage

morph(formula1, formula2, nMorphs, playMorphs = TRUE, savePath = NA,
  samplingRate = 16000)

Arguments

formula1, formula2

lists of parameters for calling soundgen that produce the two target sounds between which morphing will occur. Character strings containing the full call to soundgen are also accepted (see examples)

nMorphs

the length of morphing sequence, including target sounds

playMorphs

if TRUE, the morphing sequence will be played

savePath

if it is the path to an existing directory, morphs will be saved there as individual .wav files (defaults to NA)

samplingRate

sampling rate of output, Hz. NB: must be the same as in formula1 and formula2!

Value

A list of two sublists ($formulas and $sounds), each sublist of length nMorphs. For ex., the formula for the second hybrid is m$formulas[[2]], and the waveform is m$sounds[[2]]

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# write two formulas or copy-paste them from soundgen_app() or presets, for example:
m = morph(formula1 = list(repeatBout = 2),
          # equivalently: formula1 = 'soundgen(repeatBout = 2)',
          formula2 = presets$Misc$Dog_bark,
          nMorphs = 5, playMorphs = FALSE)
 # use $formulas to access formulas for each morph, $sounds for waveforms
 # m$formulas[[4]]
 # playme(m$sounds[[3]])
# }
