Two free audio tools for Windows

Two free Windows tools to perform useful processings on sound files:

sr-convert: “a sample-rate conversion utility for WAV files” (I use this one, excellent!);
SoundStretch from the SoundTouch Audio Processing Library (this one found while reading a blog about free software on Windows, dealing with Audacity among others): I will use this software for pitch shifting.

Quickly two interesting websites about digital audio:

the Linux Audio Blog;
hydrogenaudio: “the audio technology enthusiast's resource”.

Musical blogging!

Yeah! that's a good idea.
When I will have re-installed all my music software and plugged mics and MIDI cables, I might try to do some musical patterns blogging: read, watch and hear the creative process step after step.
At the end, is this *really* a so good idea?...

Some things for your hearing

Last year, when talking drums with Emmanuel, I said him I did some percussions in my childhood and that with time I discovered in me small aptitudes to write scores for percussions. As a small example, I released a remix (well, a sort of “proof of concepts” lol) of SouvImage Part 6: And into Paradise....
The MP3 file is very big (11.7 Mo for 5:07 min – 320 kbps, stereo, 44.1kHz). The mix was done with Digital Sound Planet's Quartz AudioMaster Freeware (it was my first try with this tools). I am so sorry for the crappy sound when there are too many instruments (grand piano wide range chords). :-(
As I said before, I will make new versions on these songs and all will be remixed (and many parts also rescored). Same story for the name of the song, the scoring, strange chords and instruments: I will explain all of that later.
Keep watching!

Le son sur La Sirène Rouge

Désolé, mais pour avoir le son sur mon montage, il vous faut le codec audio DivX. Plus d'informations sur la page "DivX Codec" du site "DivX Digest" :

The DivX Audio Compressor is a re-packaged version of the DivX ;-) Audio codec that comes with the DivX 3.11 Alpha codec - this re-pack has a standalone install/uninstall packagem, and is compatible with all versions of Windows.

Je vous conseille aussi d'utiliser un gestionnaire de téléchargement comme l'excellent et gratuit Download Express de Metaproducts Software Corporation, car mon site Free.fr (celui sur lequel j'ai déposé la vidéo, pas celui-ci, il est entendu...) a parfois des problèmes... la faute à Free.
