Sorry if not the right place to post, this
is my first.
I record bands in my home studio
and mix and master CDs for them and write
apps in Cocoa every now an then and
want to write an app that will allow you to
choose multiple audio tracks/files and view the
frequency spectrum for each track/file in the same view
but with different colors for each track so I can
see how the different tracks overlap frequency wise
and then EQ each track independently so all tracks
can have a spectrum that comes thru in the total mix.
Like bass guitar, electric guitar, vocals etc.
I have thought about this for a while about creating a tool
to aid in mixing audio and also seeing and hearing
that each instrument comes thru in its own
instruments natural frequency spectrum with no
other instruments trumping on another tracks natural freq
spectrum.
Does anybody have any pointers anyplace on something
like this with maybe some generic sample code to start with?
Has this already been done?
I wouldn't see this as a real time tool yet though.
Picture a view with a graph with X axis the frequency from 20-20kHz,
and the Y axis the signal in dbs, -80 or whatever to 0 dB.
I am pretty competent on the basic cocoa/interface programming
but not with anything in the audio realm. Never programed with
audio before.
Once I learn the foundation of the "audio portion" so I can
get the data from FFT to graph it, the possibilities are limit less. ;o)
A great open-source learning tool for others to start from
like I am starting with a post to this site.
I picture a great audio tool with an easy to understand user interface
in which you could see up to 8 or more audio tracks frequency
spectrum layered at once, or could
turn off waveforms and just compare 2 tracks, like say how much the
electric guitar is fighting with the vocal freq range, or 5 or all
max tracks
with either a plotted line, or a plotted line with transparency under
the wave.
More easy to see.
Thanks for any advice or direction. And yes I have search and still
am searching
but need to develop an audio foundation. Maybe a book?
Thanks again.
