GLOOO

GLOOO is a software system for statistical spectral modeling, including an analysis framework, a real time synthesis software and a dedicated haptic interface with a mapping tool:

Parts of the algorithm and the application in spatial sound synthesis have been published in conference proceedings:

GLOOO Synth

The GLOOO synthesizer implements statistical spectral modeling for spatial sound synthesis. Sinusoidal and residual parameter trajectories are encoded as Markov processes with transition probability matrices:

Realized as a Jack client, GLOOO is intended to be used with the BinBong, a dedicated haptic interface for expressive control. However, using the OSC protocol, any software can be used to operate the synthesizer. The synthesis software is programmed in C++ as a Jack client on Linux systems. Like this it can be connected to any spatial rendering software which is implemented as a Jack client. View the source code documentation for details on the implementation.
