alternative program for the Voice (video to tone)

i'm asking for help in finding a processing patch that has a similar way of generating the sound from video camera. in this "the Voice" program there a function that reads a vertical "stripe" from the center of the picture (few pixels width across the source video) and turns it into tone. it works like those programs that generates audio clips from picture

so i'm needing a patch that would be editable and simple. because i'm needing it for art school project

things i need from this patch

- black and white, exact way of generating tones like "the Voice"
 in Manual scan mode (Options -> Video rate -> Manual scan)
- decide the position and diameters of that stripe
- range of generated frequencies
- controlling sensitivity, brightness etc
- ability to send sound to Ableton Live

i'm a beginner in Processing so please be patient
also sorry for my English skills

Adam
