NOTAM releases Mammut version 0.59 free sound processing software.
Oslo, Norway
May 30, 2007.
NOTAM, the Norwegian production centre for work with sound, has
released a new version (0.59) of NOTAMs Mammut software for Mac OSX,
Windows and Linux.
The new version of this unique frequency-based sound processing
software brings performance improvements and major user interaction
enhancements.
For composers, sound designers, experimental musicians or producers
looking for a new approach to sound creation and manipulation, Mammut
delivers a unique way of working with sound in the frequency domain.
Mammut will do a frequency analysis of your sound in one single
gigantic FFT analysis (no windows). These spectral data, where the
development in time is incorporated in mysterious ways, may then be
transformed by different algorithms. An interesting aspect of Mammut is
its completely non-intuitive sound transformation approach. Different
transforms can be applied to the spectrum, such as nonlinear
stretching, spectrum shift, convolution, filtering and permutation.
Mammut is a somewhat unpredictable program, and the user must get used
to the idea of loosing control over the time axis. The sonic result is
often surprising. However, Mammut is also ideal for standard operations
like filtering, spectrum shift and convolution. The no-window approach
gives ultimate sound quality.
Mammut version 0.59 features:
- A new approach to sound creation and manipulation in the frequency
domain
- Unique single gigantic FFT analysis method.
- Stretch: Non-linear stretching of the frequency axis.
- Wobble: Alternately stretch and contract the frequency axis
- Multiply phase: Multiply all phases with the value you specify
- Derivate amp: Replaces the amplitude spectrum with its derivative
(slope).
- Filter: Optimal bandstop filter. The ultimate in cut-off performance!
- Invert: Splits the spectrum into regions with specified size, and
turn backward.
- Threshold: Removes all partials below a given amplitude threshold.
- Spectrum Shift: Optimal spectrum shift, with no window artifacts.
- Block Swap: Selects randomly positioned regions of the spectrum, and
interchange.
- Mirror: Reflects the whole spectrum around the frequency you specify.
