I always planned to support audio with 24bit values in my Arduino Audio Tools library, but I never actually tested the functionality and so far I did not have a clear understanding of how these values would need to be represented. To be prepared I already provided a draft implementation Read more…
I started to explore the STM32F411 Discovery Kit which comes with the following features: STM32F411VE Arm®(a)-based microcontroller featuring 512 Kbytes of Flash memoryand 128 Kbytes of RAM A (blue) user push-button ST MEMS 3-axis digital gyroscope (L3GD20 or I3G4250D) ST MEMS 3D digital linear accelerometer and magnetic sensor (LSM303DLHC or Read more…
When your Arudino sketch is crashing it produces something as follows 13:45:41.992 -> 13:45:41.992 -> Backtrace: 0x40083585:0x3ffb2690 0x400892ad:0x3ffb26b0 0x4008e2f1:0x3ffb26d0 0x400d1442:0x3ffb2800 0x400d2be1:0x3ffb2820 13:45:41.992 -> 13:45:41.992 -> 13:45:41.992 -> 13:45:41.992 -> 13:45:41.992 -> ELF file SHA256: 9868280367130d7a It is vital to be able to analyse this backtrace and translate it to methods Read more…
I was never quite happy with my old implementation of the AudioEffects class because it was not very intuitive with the required type parameters and I thought it is about time to improve. So I finally managed to provide a proper Stream implementation that works like many other converting Streams, Read more…
So far I have provided some resampling functionality that was working with some integer factors to up- and downsample. After the work on the Pitch Shifting I realized that we can easily resample using a float based step size to achieve any resampling factor and determine the new values with Read more…
So far I never needed to use any of the ESP32 multicore functionality because all the examples are very simple and everything is fitting on a single core. However if you write some more complex scenarios which are e.g. updating a screen, process user input w/o impacting the audio, you Read more…
I had some pitch shifting effect on my to-do list for a long time now and finally managed to provide this in my Arduino Audio Tools Library. Pitch shifting is the functionality to change the pitch of an input signal w/o changing the length. If you use a higher pitch Read more…
MBROLA is a speech synthesizer based on the concatenation of diphones. It takes a list of phonemes as input, together with prosodic information (duration of phonemes and a piecewise linear description of pitch), and produces speech samples on 16 bits (linear), at the sampling frequency of the diphone database. Today Read more…
It was quite a challenge to convert eSpeak NG to an Arduino Library. In the meantime I managed to publish a first round of error corrections. The eSpeak NG is a compact open source software text-to-speech synthesizer for Linux, Windows, Android and other operating systems. It supports more than 100 Read more…
