REALTIME Audio To Midi Converter INPUT

  Question:
  Would you have any recommendations as to how to smooth the amplitude data coming to the device's fader? i.e. make the fader less "jumpy" and a bit more smooth?
  Why:
  I've been looking for a device that would allow me to convert an audio track's amplitude to some kind of midi-capable fader. This is exactly what I needed!
  I've mapped the device's fader to a dummy fader on my TouchOSC iPad template, resulting in a sort-of VU meter display.
  I'd love for the fader's movement to be a tad more smooth / less erratic.
  Any help would be much appreciated. And thank you for this device!

  Hi Veckatimest,
  try experimenting with the "line" object. I updated the Audio_To_Midi OUTPUT just now.

  Smooth up everything now :)
  Sorry for the late response, this forum doesn't send me any updates somehow.
  Cheers

  Hey diego,
  I tried following your instructions (put the INPUT patch on the audio channel, and the OUTPUT patch on the midi channel then a synth), but I can't get the synth to work.
  On the audio channel I do see the audio signal arriving to the INPUT plugin, but I don't see anything happening on the MIDI channel.
  Are the two patches need to be connected somehow?
  Thanks for the help. I'm really new to MAX.

  I think I found the issue but I can't solve it. The Max window shows the following message: "sigmund~: No such object"
  However, I did transfer the sigmund files to a separate directory and added this directory to the Search Path (When I go to File Preferences --> List Paths I see it there...)
  Any idea how to solve this?

  @diego19187 why don't you freeze this device so users do not have issues with the external?

  I tried installing but can't seem to get it to work.
  1. I d/l sigmund~ and put it in the Max patches lib which is part of the search dir.
  2. I put the input on an audio channel and set it to mono.
  3. I put the output on a midi channel
  4. I toggled the "Touch to control in ableton" switch.
  Nothing seems to happen...I don't even see the audio signal reaching to the Audio input device.
  help? :)

  Hello Diego,
  Your device is fantastic !!!
  Do you think there is a way to use more than one instance per set ?
  I would like to have at least 3 channels of audio to make 3 channels of Midi synths.. Is ther any way to achieve that ?
  Thank you !
  And many thank's for your work !!!

  Hi there, i seem to be only able to control ctrl message with this and not velocity. What could i be doing wrong? I can get an incoming audio signal to control for example modulation wheel on CC1 but not velocity, can anyone help? I'd like to have a piezomic control velocity on a vst and have a non velocity sensitive midipiano do the notes so i need to have the vst midi channel receive input from two sources at the same time.. thanx for any help

  Supernice device !
  I made a set of 4 devices (input and output) so I can use 4 instances of Sigmund in my set, it's crazy, doesn't consume more cpu ! works far better than the expensive "widi" plug !!!
  Thank's so much !
