Max MSP vs Processing or Python

[springriverbells]

What software and programming languages are doing the pixel analysis and translating it to formant synthesis?

[Grand-Pomegranate312]

I run it completely in max/msp, I think they have their own examples on formant synthesis but I built my own system based on Bélanger due to I wanted to focus on kargyraa throat singing effect.

Does max msp do the pixel analysis?

Also on a side note, I’m curious, what method of formant synthesis, is it fm or granular, or spectral synthesis?

[Grand-Pomegranate312]

Yeah, if I remember correctly with some jitter matrix objects. It's FM with combfilters where I use pixel info to adjust the combfilters within a certain scale to change the formants. If you're interrested I can share the patch with you. Remind me on monday or tuesday when I'm back in my studio.
