nick's week
- feb 9
- I fiddled around with the noise~ rfft~ assignment and I have something that resembles what was explained? but I'm not sure if I've really done it correctly. Had to get some help from here (maybe this page will help with your attempt, Lysha?)

- I uploaded my version (noise fourier.pd). feel free to check it out (y)

- started playing around with modulation (specifically frequency modulation because the math behind it is something I can understand, ha!)
- also played around with shaping noise using multiple bandpass filters, getting a shaped wave similar to a sine wave. Neat!
- I hooked up graphs to each, one for the wave shape and one for FFT.
- just for kicks

- playing around with amplitude modulation: fun stuff! experimenting with stereo audio as well
lysha's week
- I was not nearly as productive this week as I had high hopes for. To be honest, the fourier bit had me spinning for a good while, but I think, in conjunction with the chapter in the physics book, and the link Nick posted here, I finally wrapped my head around with it. I have something close ("FFT_test") to what I think was the assignment. Unfortunately I learned my first real lesson about saving often as I had a crash a couple hours in and had to recreate it...that said, it went faster and in some ways reinforced what I was tinkering with.
- I started (just started reading and tinkering with examples online mostly) working on a granular synth model, which is pretty deep it seems and I'll upload the teeny-weeny bit (essentially loading + seeing the sample file) that I have so far ("granular"), but I want to continue it this week. I also plan to spend some time finally implementing a MIDI keyboard/control surface.
