DESCRIPTION: This is a sample-based live-performance patch designed to generate ambient soundscapes, getting quick meaningful results from any soundfile that is loaded into it. It is arranged in 'chunks' of code, offering control over volume, pan, pitch, amplitude modulation, bit/sample resolution, delay and filters, and has a variety of automated controls to ensure that the performer need not be attempting to control everything at the same time. The interface for the patch was considered carefully to ensure that it was a welcoming environment and to enable easy navigation.
