hello, this is a application that was made for a sound contest. its purpose it to create soundscapes, ambiances. ive used processing for it and some basic attraction physics to attract generators and keep things moving.

That is actually very cool. I'd love to see some of the code behind it.
One thing though, on the Mac version, the program freezes [requiring a forced quit] when the 'a' button is pressed.

thanks for the warning. ill get a new version online. i'll have to get a mac to test it with.

i have changed the app to use Minim synth and i've added few features.

1. you can interact with any of the generators/samples and the activator.
2. now you are able to change the activation range, which is basically change the distance each generator is triggered.
3. you can change parameters for each generator.

i should be posting a new version online soon.

as for the code, i dont think ill put it all out but if you need any help or explanations of what i used, just ask. i'll be glad to help. if you need a specific piece of code i guess i can give it away aswell. afterall its nothing highly secret. it basically uses things that has been discussed in this forum before.

Wauv.. It looks unbelieveable. Im rather new to Processing, but this wanna make me learn it even more.

If you changed your mind about the code, please do share some. Smiley

v4 out!
new version

fixed exporting problems (something about minim effects and fullscreen, still a mistery).

new features:
you can handle all generators/samples and the activator by click and drag.
you can set activation range as global or individually by a toggle button on the menu, change frequency/amplitude.
the physics got a bit better, not realistic but that wasnt the point anyway.

it was fun to make. enjoy!

haruspex,

i've tested the application in 2 macs with same specs as yours and it worked just fine. i've asked for a new test after reading your post and it works just fine.

are u using built-in sound or audio-interface?
check out for newest drivers.

check if the Global Activation Range is high, otherwise you wont hear anything. make sure you see colors, and then you will hear sound.

keep in touch
