Description: Arpeggiation is a MIDI arpeggiator. It allows you to easily produce rhythmic note patterns according to keys you hold down. Currently it will arpeggiate over one to four octaves. It can produce quarter notes to thirty-second notes, and the tempo is adjustable anywhere from 50 to 200 BPM. Future plans include user-definable arpeggiation patterns, external synchronisation (both as a master and a slave), and CV control of synths via the GeekPort.

their own projects. Other features are: Saveable playlist,
detailed infos about the played files, internal CD-player,
Supported formats in this version are: ImpulseTracker2.xx,
FastTracker, ScreamTracker, Amiga modules, MIDI files
(using an own software midi player, based on TiMidity),
SID tunes, MPEG (the fastest available player in the world
for any platform, handoptimized by me for PPC) and simple
sample files.

Rig is a real-time effects processing system that uses add-ons. Once the system is ready, users will be able to add a number of effects to a "Rig" limited only processor speed.
Currently, there is only one add-on, you guessed it: Echo! is back only now you have to add it to a Rig to hear the awesome sounds of the most basic of digital effects. Needless to say, the next thing I'm going to do is come up with some cooler effects to show off my app, now that it is semi functional.

maplay is not a very efficient MPEG decoder, so the

the reader.
If you have a Be/66, turn off one processor, it
may help it running, for reason related to cache coherency

Description: Version 1.2.1 fixes a bug reported by Jake: I wasn't loading all of the
internal MIDI instruments. It also comes in a zip file so that file
attributes (like the icons) are not lost.
MIDI Through does what it says. It connects your BeOS computer's MIDI
outputs to its MIDI inputs and to the internal MIDI synth. You can turn off
or on the connections between each MIDI input and output. By default, all
inputs are connected to all outputs and to the MIDI synth.
This latest version not only lets you play the internal MIDI synth; you can
also select the program (sound) and adjust the volume for each channel. But
wait, there's more! When you send a program change or volume change from
your MIDI controller, the Internal Synth window updates in realtime! Gasp!
For more help, run MIDI Through and select "Help..." from the application menu
or open the file "index.html" in the documentation folder.

Description: Pulsar is an FFT spectro psychedelic sound analyser.
This is an app that I started after listening Trance Techno music.
It also works with other types of music, if you like !
The main idea is that it runs an FFT on the music and displays
psychedelic stuff in full screen, using your parameters.
The latest version supports add-on programmed in C++. Sample code
for creating add-on is included in the archive.
I encourage anybody to fell free to create and dispatch such
add-on, as well as I expect anybody to criticize the program
architecture, especially the points noted in the todolist or
the readme.
To run this, you need an audio CD device and the datatypes library.
Next version will use JPG instead of TGA and thus will be smaller.

Description: Sound editor featuring as many samples on screen as wanted,
even playing simultaneously, as many views for each sample
as wanted too. Logarithmic zoom going down to the sample
with a constant relative precision all over its range.
No clipboard - everything is on screen. This way, it should
be easier to chose between different sets of effects
parameters (when effects will be here). Nifty marker/region
logic allowing for fast, precise, editing, leading to
nearly non-destructive work.
For the moment, it's really a demo-version - the design
is awful and there's no effect at all. It should change
really quickly - stay tuned.

Description: This was my first project for the BeOS. All it does is play one or more sound files. The reason I wrote it is to be able to play a sound from the terminal without bringing up a window the way PlaySound does. I use it to play a startup sound. I inserted the following line into /boot/system/UserBootscript:
TermSound "/boot/sounds/Beavis&ButtheadBeginning"
It can also be used to play multiple sounds in sequence:
TermSound Sound1 Sound2 etc.
It can play any sound supported by BeOS's play_sound() function, which currently is AIFF, WAVE, and UNIX formats. Anything else will be played, but will be treated as raw data and may not play correctly...

to control and transform data streams. Initially targetted
mostly toward MIDI, it has nevertheless many other potential
applications, and a couple of audio stream and other modules
are included in the package to demonstrate this.
A new pack of MIDI modules added 3 Aug 97 (musicwvrmidi.zip) includes access to the internal Synth. At the moment it is Freeware, but will become Shareware
(probably) when more complete.
