SpectMorph: spectral audio morphing
SpectMorph is a free software project which allows to analyze samples of musical instruments, and to combine them (morphing). It can be used to construct hybrid sounds, for instance a sound between a trumpet and a flute; or smooth transitions, for instance a sound that starts as a trumpet and then gradually changes to a flute. In its current version, SpectMorph ships with many ready-to-use instruments which can be combined using morphing.
Plugins:
SpectMorph supports three different plugin formats,
CLAP plugin
VST plugin
LV2 plugin
for Linux, macOS (x86_64 and Apple Silicon) and 64-bit Windows, so it works in many different hosts, such as Ardour, Qtractor, Anklang, Bitwig, Renoise, Cubase, Ableton Live and others. For hosts that support CLAP, using the SpectMorph CLAP plugin is the preferred way of integration.
Controlling Morphing with Automation:
The plugin has four properties that can be automated by the host, called Control #1 … Control #4. To use these, for instance for linear morphing, the Control Input can be set to „Control Signal #1“ (or #2) in the UI. After that the host can change the morphing from left source to right source and back.
Controlling Morphing with CCs:
The control inputs (Control Signal #1 … Control Signal #4) are mapped to the midi CC controls (General Purpose Controller 1..4).
