I am working on a sketch that requires a line in but I would like to use an external microphone rather than my internal mic built into the mac. Using Minim and STT.
I am finding problems selecting a mixer within my own sketch but it will select fine in the minim example.
Through running my external mic through JackPilot, it can pick it up and select it but when applied to my own sketch it doesn't read it.
Is there any simple way to get the mic to register on the mac for processing without defaulting back to the built in mic?
(I have tried almost everything from changing system preferences to using many different audio servers)
I am currently trying to design type that reacts to sound but when looking for sketches they are really complicated visually.
(playing with both minim/geomerative)
But at the moment all I am looking for as a start point is ex. mouseX makes serifs on typeface thicker /mouseY changes the typeface x-height...
I can't seem to find any simples sketches to work from that don't dip into geomerative type stuff. Really just looking for a simple visualiser than can make type thinner/thicker, tall/short and distort the serifs in some way.
Is the only way to do this to call different typefaces to respond to different points? surely one typeface can be manipulated in a subtle way.
