I need to find a way to capture sound waves and create drawings

Hi dhien,

Have a look at the Audio Tools within the new Firefly:

http://fireflyexperiments.com/resources/

There is the Frequency Spectrum tool:

The Note to Frequency tool

The Sound Capture tool

The Tone Generator tool

Download the plugin, try the tool with some help from the manual and example files and ask all your questions in the Firefly group.

best,

Arthur

i installed it but its not coming up in grasshopper. They are there in the special folders / components folder. I also tried to put them in the grasshopper plugin components folder.

Are you using Rhino 5.0 64-bit? If so, the components wont work because they rely on the C_Sawapan_media.dll which is only compiled for 32-bit applications. Try using either Rhino 4.0 or Rhino 5.0 32-bit version. We're working on correcting this issue.

Thanks,

Andy

Hello, I am trying to input sound capture recordings from my computer into the Sound Capture component to output the corresponding frequencies/sine waves. I am having difficulty finding information on these Audio Tools in depth, as the primer hardly scratches the surface of these components. If anyone has any information regarding the information, please let me know!
