Timestretching/Pitchshifting

Christoph Hart

@d-healey yes I swapped the fft with the juce wrapper which uses IPP / vdsp / FFTW. However the performance on my Windows system was already pretty good (about 2% per voice).

I‘m curious how the sound quality holds up against the alternatives - in my tests it‘s pretty good.

I'm getting some errors, I'll post some below. They are all in the same file, pixman-arm-neon-asm.h.

~~Huh actually it's really weird because that file hasn't changed since you added it...~~

Oh I get it, it's something to do with the include in SamplerSettings, but I don't know what...

Meh I commented out the line and it compiled just fine.

I'm using FFTW, the time stretching sounds really good. With a guitar loop I'm getting a little bit of what I'd call a bassy humming sound when it's stretched but with a percussive loop there are no issues.

Here's some of the loops I'm testing with - https://e.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=XZji1BZ3qTkeAWhYWkoVhYP2yNmVpaFRtIy

The bug where HISE's internal BPM is off by 10 is still there. When the project is compiled though it's fine.

Is it possible to go down to 25%? I know it won't be as "pleasant" but can be useful for more sound design stuff.

Christoph Hart

@d-healey haha, I'm using a new tool within VisualStudio (Resharper C++) and I think I've pressed a wrong shortcut and it inserted this completely idiotic include statement. I also got the compilation errors but I thought it was a glitch so I removed the file locally...

I can't reproduce the BPM issue - is this Linux only?

And yes the timestretching algorithm can cope with extreme ratios (and it even starts to randomize the phase outside of the 0.5...2.0 range to get a PaulStretch-like sound. I've just added this limitation arbitrarily so I don't have to deal with buffers that get too big...

d.healey

@Christoph-Hart Yeah it could be a Linux thing, I haven't tested on other systems.

@Christoph-Hart Very cool! Where can we poke around to lower the limit? And is there a way to reach the stretch ratio of the Sampler module via scripting ?

Christoph Hart

And is there a way to reach the stretch ratio of the Sampler module via scripting ?

Sure:

Sampler.setTimestretchRatio(newRatio);

I've updated the docs to include a chapter about how it works:

d.healey

@Lindon Need to update your VI thread :)

ulrik

@Christoph-Hart Much appreciated Christoph!

audiolyf

@Christoph-Hart Nice! Is getTimestretchOptions() not implemented yet?

d.healey

@audiolyf I can see it in the repo - https://github.com/christophhart/HISE/commit/3c8711f0713f445d197fa6b7d8f9e4819de114f6#diff-92b4316aaf5f04995603daa0550fbbb9156f53dbb5061d9608eacb18fb356d73

Thank you Christoph Hart for this feature. My project was stuck, but now the problem is solved! Don't you think @d-healey that it would be interesting to offer a tutorial on your YouTube channel to explain how to properly implement time stretching? It could help more than one person.
Thanks,
Remi Dufeu

@d-healey Pulled the branch yesterday and everything else is there but I'm getting function not found both with getSampler and getChildSynth

d.healey

@audiolyf Maybe you pulled before Christoph added it?

Done!

Definitely, once it's a little more mature.

Christoph Hart

@d-healey there‘s not much to show in a tutorial - just turn on timestretching and set the ratio…

d.healey

@Christoph-Hart I think they'll want to know how to use the scripting functions and implement a UI.

audiolyf

@Christoph-Hart Sample start mod is not possible, right?
