Helps to create experimental music from a file (or its part) and a Ukrainian text. It can also generate a timbre for the notes. Uses SoX inside.

            ***** Usage *****
            =================

You can use it as a library or as an executable.

Please, check before executing whether there is no "x.wav", "test*.wav", "result*.wav" and "end.wav" files in the current directory, because they can be overwritten. The same can be said about "nx*.wav" files in the directory.

For the executable you enter in the terminal:

dobutokO2 { 0 | 1 | 11 | 2 | 21 | 3 | 31 | 4 | 41 | 5 | 51 | 6 | 7 } {fileName} {Ukrainian text}

OR:

dobutokO2 { 8 | 80 | 9 | 99 | 999 }

OR:

dobutokO2 { 82 | 820 | 92 | 992 | 9992 } {volatile symbols together, e. g. "0"} {quality control, see information below}

OR:

dobutokO2 { 00 | 002 } {beginning symbols for the filenames "fade" effect to be applied to} {quality control, see information below}

where filename is: the full name of the file to be recorded in the current directory or the full absolute path to the sound .wav file (or other one format that is supported by your SoX installation) to obtain sound information from.

If the first command line argument equals to one of the numbers below, then the program behaves as follows:

"1", or "3", or "5" -> then the executable uses the overTones functions, so for the given parameters the overtones are the same for every call.

"2", or "4", or "6" -> then the program uses uniqOverTones functions.

"3", or "4", or "5", or "6" -> the program uses additional String to define signs for the harmonics coefficients for overtones.

"11", or "21", or "31", or "41", or "51", or "61" -> the program works as for the respective inputs with only the first character in the option (e. g. for "51", this is "5"), but uses not octaves, but n-th elements sets of consequential notes consisting of 2, 3, 4, 6, or 9 elements (called 'enky'). The usual octave is from such point of view a 12th elements set of consequential notes. This allows to create more 'condensed' and 'narrower' compositions that being more defined can be at the same time more precise.

"9" -> the program works with existing "result*.wav" files and you can replace some of them by other one(s) or their sequences. This allows to create files, then edit them using this first command line option (possibly for several times) and at last create a resulting melody file with "8" or "80" options.

"99" -> the program takes a filename (it is a first command line argument and it is ignored) and the rest of the command line argument (they are treated as command line arguments to the SoX 'play' command). Then the program prompts you to specify the needed indeces for the "result*.wav" files in the current directory (e. g. they can be obtained by executing the dobutokO2 with the first command line argument less than "8", or produced by some other means). You can specify multiple lists of Int to select the needed files to be played with effects. Afterwards, the program just plays these selected files applying the specified SoX effects to them consequently. For example: dobutokO2 9 reverb -w will play the selected (during execution) files with the SoX "reverb -w" effect. For more information on effects, please, refer to the SoX documentation.

"999" -> similarly to "99", but instead of playing the files, SoX actually applies to them these effects and overwrites the files with the obtained ones. It is convenient way to test the sounding effects with firstly run the dobutokO2 with "99" first command line argument, and then, if suitable, with "999" one. Be aware, that after running with the latter one, the program cannot restore the files that were changed to their previous state, so be careful while running.

In more details:

"0" -> the program just converts multiline Ukrainian text from stdin into a String and prints it to stdout. No other arguments are used.

"00" -> the program applies "fade q 0.01 -0.0" SoX effect to every "zs*.wav" (or instead of them to every "zs*.flac") file in the current directory. The 'zs' here is specified by the second command line argument. This allows to avoid clipping while just simply concatenating the files into one with SoX. The mentioned clipping can be desirable in some circumstances but generally is not necessary or is redundant. For more information, please, refer to the SoX documentation and to that one for 'fadeAllE' function in the DobutokO.Sound.IntermediateF module.

"002" -> the program applies "fade q 0.002 -0.0" SoX effect to every "zs*.wav" (or instead of them to every "zs*.flac") file in the current directory. Works similarly to the option "00" (see above).

"1" -> basic functionality without the possibility to define individual overtones.

"11" -> the same as "1", but works with enky. See general information above.

"2" -> basic functionality with the possibility to define individual overtones. In such a case, another text gives the other overtones.

"21" -> the same as "2", but works with enky. See general information above.

"3" -> adittionally to basic functionality gives an opportunity to specify the signs for the harmonics coefficients for overtones by additional String.

"31" -> the same as "3", but works with enky. See general information above.

"4" -> similarly to "2" gives an opportunity to specify the signs for the harmonics coefficients for overtones by additional String.

"41" -> the same as "4", but works with enky. See general information above.

"5" -> additionally to that one functionality provided by "3" gives an opportunity to specify in how many times the amplitude for the second lower note (if any) is greater, than the amplitude for the main note and specify the intervals to be used for every note.

"51" -> the same as "5", but works with enky. See general information above.

"6" -> the same as "5", but you can define also overtones by an additional String.

"61" -> the same as "6", but works with enky. See general information above.

"7" -> the program behaves like for the "5" option, but generates overtones using additional String and allows maximum control over the parameters. Besides, all the needed information it obtains from the singular formatted input, which can be ended with a keyboard keys combination that means an end of input (e. g. for Unices, that is probably Ctrl + D). '@' are separators for the input parts for their respective parts. For more information about the format of the single input, see: https://drive.google.com/open?id=10Z_GRZR4TKoL5KXfqPm-t-4humuHN0O4 The file is also provided with the package as text.dat.txt. The last two or three inputs (an input just here means a textual input between two '@') can be omitted, the program will work also but with less control for the user possible.

"8" -> the program just creates from input "result*" files the "end.wav" by concatenating them into one. It is mostly useful after some processment on the "result*" files after previous execution with other lesser first command line arguments to get the test final sound file. It can be then listened to and probably remade again by editing the "result*" files and running the program with this option again. In such a case, none from the other command line arguments is important for the program running, so they all can be simply omitted.

"80" -> the same as "8" but with one important difference that the program if succeeded in creation of the "end.wav" file, then removes all other "result*" files from the current directory, so you cannot reverse the successful action back and try again with just the same files. In such a case, you need to repeat all the process of creation of "result*" files. Be aware and use with care!

"82" -> the same as "8", but you can specify the sound quality parameters for the resulted file and choose whether it will be in WAV or FLAC format. To specify this additional processing information, use as a third command line argument (after the first "82" and the volatile second one) 4 consequent symbols: 3 digits and 1 letter ('f' -- for FLAC one and 'w' for WAV one). The first two digits are a code for rate and the third one -- a code for bit depth ('1' -- for 16 bit and '2' -- for 24 bit). The list of possible first two digits and their corresponding frequency rate in Hz:

                 "11" -> 11025

                 "16" -> 16000

                 "17" -> 176400

                 "19" -> 192000

                 "32" -> 32000

                 "44" -> 44100

                 "48" -> 48000

                 "80" -> 8000

                 "96" -> 96000

                 The default one behaviour is equivalent to "221w".

"820" -> the same as "80", but similarly to "82" it gives you the opportunity to specify sound quality parameters in just the same way.

"9", "99", or "999" -> see the information above.

"92", "992", or "9992" -> similar to the above line, but with the opportunity to specify sound quality parameters in just the same way as for "82" option. These are considered still highly experimental and not well tested, so use them not for production.

_ -> the program behaves like for the "5" option, but generates overtones using additional String and allows maximum control over the parameters.

After the program executing (it takes some time) with the first command line options except "80" there are files "result*.wav" in the directory. These are the resulting melody generated in their order preserved.

The program now lifts the frequencies to the octave or to the enka with the number, which you can specify during its execution.

You can use the default values (backward compatible with the 0.2.0.0 version if the first command line option does not consist of two digits and the last one is not a '0' or '1') by simply pressing 'Enter' while being prompted and the informational message contains the line about the default value.

Since the 0.21.0.0 version the package extends its library functions with the possibility to create not only single notes or intervals of sounds playing simultaneously but also sets of three, four, five, six, seven or more sounds played simultaneously with their overtones. For more information, please, refer to the documentation for the DobutokO.Sound.Functional module.

Since the 0.22.1.0 version the library functions are extended also with the possibility to adjust volume for the overtones using generalized functions '1G' with adjustment being represented in dB. For more information, please, refer to the documentation for the DobutokO.Sound.Functional module.

Since the 0.23.0.0 version the library includes functions '2G': generalized ones in the DobutokO.Sound.Functional, and DobutokO.Sound.IntermediateF, and DobutokO.Sound.Executable modules. They allow to specify sound quality of the resulting files using additional parameter.

Since the 0.24.0.0 version the library includes functions to work more explicitly with f function in the DobutokO.Sound.Functional module. They are based on the simplest (but still meaningful) multiplicative data fitting.

Since the 0.31.0.0 version the library includes functions to split the sound into several simultaneously sounding similar ones. For more information, please, refer to the DobutokO.Sound.Functional module.

Since the 0.36.0.0 version the library includes functions to provide your own variants of durations, intervals and volume adjustments and the possibilities to generate speech-like music with most of parameters obtained from the Ukrainian language texts.

Since the 0.38.0.0 version the library includes new datatype Params in the DobutokO.Sound.Functional module and various functions to work with it. It allows to use tonalities or something close to them. For more information, please, refer to DobutokO.Sound.Functional and DobutokO.Sound modules.

Since the 0.39.0.0 version there are some additional effects and opportunities in the DobutokO.Sound.Functional and DobutokO.Sound.IntermediateF modules. Some functions in the library were moved from the DobutokO.Sound.Executable module to the DobutokO.Sound.Functional module because of logics of the module structure and semantics.

** Note:

  • Better to execute in the RAM. Need rather a lot of space on the disk for the resulting file "end.wav" and auxiliary files (MBs) for a short sound in the second command line arguments.

              ***** Examples *****
              ====================
    

Starting from the 0.24.0.0 version, you can refer to examples in the GitHub special repository (https://github.com/OleksandrZhabenko/dobutokO2-examples/). You can also see some of the generated sounds on the YouTube list: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuG3zSZWV7yollV9nMPcRtm3udVuYVlFS

            ***** Support for not Sound File Variativity Sources *****
            ==========================================================

Since 0.28.0.0 version the library supports not only the sound file as a variativity source but also other types of files. They are used through a special reencoding using lazy bytestrings. For more information, please, refer to DobutokO.Sound.Keyboard module.

Since 0.41.0.0 version the module structure is completely changed: there were added new ones and rearranged the existing, module DobutokO.Sound splitted into three different modules: DobutokO.Sound.Overtones, DobutokO.Sound.Uniq and DobutokO.Sound.Octaves. This was done to simplify compilation and to produce more logical and semantic structure. The most complicated functions from DobutokO.Sound.Functional module are moved to a new package dobutokO3. Some code improvements.

Since 0.42.0.0 version it uses Float instead of Double where possible. Double precision is redundant. The shift is inspired by: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYTZkE5BZ-0
