Sound Design Toolkit

SOUND DESIGN TOOLKIT: INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Note

This fork adds the C implementation of the SeamCarvingAudio algorithm. This is still WIP and it may not be integrated in the future. Please check the SDT repository of this project and the commit changes.

Diffs

I wrote 4 new files:

Pd/seamcarving~-help.pd
src/Pd/seamcarving~.c
src/SDT/SDTSeamCarving.c
src/SDT/SDTSeamCarving.h

I also updated these:

src/Pd/SDT.c
build/macosx/Makefile

The first one simply introduced the seam carving setup in purrdata. The second one has new flags to compile and link GSL library I used to work with matrices.

Todo

• Update the documentation in SDTSeamCarving.h and SDTSeamCarving.c 📝;
• Fix all build files (rethink the GSL integration) 💥;
• Use the same method of erasing a seam (same as here) 🔨;
• Verify and validate the algorithm ✔️;
• Max?
• Make a coffee ☕.

PRECOMPILED BINARIES

Precompiled binaries are available for Max and PureData, running on Mac OS X and Windows. Simply download the universal SDT package for from the official website:

http://www.soundobject.org/SDT

then unpack it and copy the branch for your operating system and platform into the desired destination folder.

COMPILING FROM SOURCE

MAC OS X

1. In a terminal, type the following commands to compile the software in all its flavors (Max package, Pd library, Apple framework):

    cd build/macosx
    make
   

2. Install one or more products. The script will install the desired product in the given , creating a SDT subfolder:

    make install_max DSTDIR=<path>
    make install_pd DSTDIR=<path>
    make install_core DSTDIR=<path>
   

3. To clean the source directories after compilation:

    make clean
   

WINDOWS

To compile the Sound Design Toolkit under Windows, you need a distribution of the GNU C Compiler and a UNIX style shell, as provided in MinGW + MSYS (http://www.mingw.org, recommended) or Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com).

1. Once the compilation environment is installed, open its shell and issue the following commands to compile the software in all its flavors (Max package, Pd library, Shared DLL):

    cd build/win32 (or cd build/win64 for the x64 version)
    make
   

2. Install the desired products. The script will install the desired product in the given , creating a SDT subfolder:

    make install_max DSTDIR=<path>
    make install_pd DSTDIR=<path> (only for 32 bit)
    make install_core DSTDIR=<path>
   

3. To clean the source directories after compilation:

    make clean
   

LINUX

1. In a terminal, type the following commands to build the SDT:

    cd build/linux
    make
   

2. Install the SDT. By default, the building environment will install a shared library in /usr/lib and a collection of PureData externals and patches in /usr/lib/pd/extras/SDT. Root privileges may be required to access the default install path. If you want to change the install path, provide a PREFIX argument:

    make install
    make install PREFIX=<path>
   

3. To clean the source directories after compilation:

    make clean
