CC2 Major Assignment

A microphone is placed against a wall facing towards a speaker placed against an opposite wall. The feedback is controlled via a filter and the volume raised sufficiently until resonance occurs in the room. An audio file “CCfreddie2008” (included in zip file) was recorded and played through the audio illusion part of the patch in the two separate playback patches that can be seen in the bottom right. The resonance unfortunately was too loud to hear it properly in the recording although sounded quite cool live in the room where I was sitting as I was closer to the speaker than the mic was. The audio illusion uses the resonant wave length to determine speed and delay time so as to create an overlap in the playing of the two files. I made some manual adjustments on the fly near the end of the recording to add some variety.

it makes noise? What more do you want? lol.

Have a read of the documentation. It's not a musical instrument. That should make it clearer.
