MultiBandBeatMaker : Multi-band algorithmic beatmaker — Cecilia 5.4.1 documentation

# MultiBandBeatMaker : Multi-band algorithmic beatmaker

## Description

MultiBandBeatMaker uses four algorithmic beat generators to play spectral separated chunks of a sound.

## Sliders

> Frequency Splitter :

>   Split points for multi-band processing

> Num of Taps :

>   Number of taps in a measure

> Tempo :

>   Speed of taps

> Tap Length :

>   Length of taps

> Beat 1 Index :

>   Soundfile index of the first beat

> Beat 2 Index :

>   Soundfile index of the second beat

> Beat 3 Index :

>   Soundfile index of the third beat

> Beat 4 Index :

>   Soundfile index of the fourth beat

> Beat 1 Distribution :

>   Repartition of taps for the first beat (100% weak –> 100% down)

> Beat 2 Distribution :

>   Repartition of taps for the second beat (100% weak –> 100% down)

> Beat 3 Distribution :

>   Repartition of taps for the third beat (100% weak –> 100% down)

> Beat 4 Distribution :

>   Repartition of taps for the fourth beat (100% weak –> 100% down)

> Beat 1 Gain :

>   Gain of the first beat

> Beat 2 Gain :

>   Gain of the second beat

> Beat 3 Gain :

>   Gain of the third beat

> Beat 4 Gain :

>   Gain of the fourth beat

> Global Seed :

>   Seed value for the algorithmic beats, using the same seed with the same distributions will yield the exact same beats

## Graph Only

> Overall Amplitude :

>   The amplitude curve applied on the total duration of the performance

> Beat 1 ADSR :

>   Envelope of taps for the first beat in breakpoint fashion

> Beat 2 ADSR :

>   Envelope of taps for the second beat in breakpoint fashion

> Beat 3 ADSR :

>   Envelope of taps for the third beat in breakpoint fashion

> Beat 4 ADSR :

>   Envelope of taps for the fourth beat in breakpoint fashion

## Popups & Toggles

> Polyphony per Voice :

>   The number of streams used for each voice’s polpyhony. High values allow more overlaps but are more CPU expensive, only available at initialization time.
