sloop.splitter

Sloop.splitter is a powerful real-time sound effect software that allows users to manipulate and generate synthetic sounds from natural sources. The software works by sampling sounds from any source and then dissecting them by searching for waveforms and repeating them from one repetition to thousands, while preserving the natural sound. With Sloop.splitter, users can easily create unique sounds by manipulating natural waveforms in a more or less synthetic way.

One of the key benefits of Sloop.splitter is that it constantly changes the number of repetitions from one to thousands and back, allowing users to see the transition between the synthetic and the natural. To use the software, users need to meet certain requirements, including a Linux OS, a fullduplex capable soundcard (or two halfduplex), a lot of free RAM, and enough free CPU time.

To install Sloop.splitter, users need to unpack the archive with "tar -xvzf sloop.splitter-0.2.1.tar.gz" and then navigate to the folder with "cd sloop.splitter-0.2.1". Once in the folder, users need to compile the software with "gcc sloop.splitter.c -o sloop.splitter -lm -lpthread" and can add "-On (n is 1..6) and -march=i686 or -march=i586" for optimizations. After compiling, users can start the program with "./sloop.splitter".

In the latest release, Sloop.splitter is intended to be used with a microphone and only skips periods of silence. Overall, Sloop.splitter is an excellent software for anyone looking to create unique sounds and manipulate natural waveforms in real-time.
