This has been done for ages in the audio production space, it's called "convolution reverb". It's quite nice, but it doesn't allow you to tune it very much, besides basic filtering and stretching/cutting.
- aeturnum 6y agoYah, they said "convolution reverb," so I think they expected audience to know what it was. Often it's not about creating new technology, but making existing technology accessible to new audiences and new creators.
- neotriple 6y agoHonestly, convolution reverb is already highly accessible. It’s a feature in $50 (and probably free) reverb plug-ins for anybody that does audio. They’re relatively easy to implement and have probably been around for a decade+. As the OP said, the audio things they mentioned aren’t new or adding any accessibility imo
- thewebcount 6y agoThey were doing it in the 80s for music when samplers first became big.
- neotriple 6y agoYeah I figured so, but didn’t want to look up examples since I was on mobile and thus stuck with my more conservative value of decade+.
