java processing minim

The purpose of this blog is to document the processing programming language which is on top of java, especially what I found out about minim, the sound package.

Projects

• Sounds

- check the use of midi in java to create instruments
- having trouble playing a note for a limited time. I cannot just give one statement to do it. I have to put in a delay, which means I cannot do anything else (unless I fork).
- I have not figured out how to do my own cureve. minim AudioSignal has Ocillator, PinkNoise, PulseWave, SawWave, SignalChain, SineWave, SquareWave, TriangleWave, WhiteNoise

Not included in the wave form are vibratto, tremollo,reverb.
Harmonics, sample rate, and timber are part of the wave form.
Harmonics is the same as overtones.
Peter Sonnek suggested the AudioSource java class (minim uses javaSound). Either I have the name wrong or this is the same thing. Minim has an audioSource class.
