- StochGran is an interface to "sgran", a Cmix stochastic granular
- synthesis instrument for music composition.
-
- It was developed under NeXTstep Release 2.1, and has been used
- in the computer music class at Columbia University.
-
- To run StochGran, "sgran" and cmix commands "sfcreate",
- "rescale" and "play" must be installed or linked into the directory
- you will designate in the interface as the cmix directory. Cmix is available
- from princeton.edu. If you don't want to install Cmix you can use the rescale
- included here, and link "sndplay" to "play". Check the man page for sgran
- if needed to find out how to set parameters.
- When you have set the parameters on the main StochGran window, write out
- functions and then write score with the menu items. Then run the job.
- When you see in the output window it has finished
- (it says how many grains were written), you can rescale the float sound file.
- After it says "done", the sound file can be played.
