so, i've spent the last day working on matlab to get bach's "little fugue" to sound decent for my class ECE380 - Discrete shit. and it's awesome...i really dig this kind of thing. so...i learned a bunch about sound synthesis for this...and in the end, my final product utilized: volume shaping (ASDR or something like that), multiple "voices", non-tone sounds (tones are the basic sound...then everything after that gets super ass difficult, but i managed to get bell/triangle-like sounds), and individually volume controlled ntoes. it was pretty fun...i can only hope that the rest of this class is this cool.
here's what i derived (sorry, it's in WAV!!! ~1.3 MB): final fugue, and this is what i started with: initial fugue.
aside from that...all of my new classes are pretty standard. some of them i loathe [ece362-Principles of Design], while others are just ok [computer architecture II]. i'm overloading for the first time at rose this quarter...20 credit hours. i think i will be ok and all with the course load. after all, i'm in engineering statistics - the easiest class ever! math for idiots!! at least compared to some of my ECE courses...
oh, i almost forgot. i'm now the president of eta kappa nu, the electrical and computer engineernig honrs society thing. it's going to be a good time, mostly because i only have roughly 10 people underneath me. between HKN and TBP [where i'm the corresponding secretary], i'm sure i will get my fair share of responsibilities to fulfill for some organizations.
other news? not much really. i haven't ate yet today, but farmer and some guys are supposed to head out to texas roadhouse for dinner tonight, and i wouldn't mind going out and stuff...mostly because school sucks the life out of me.
later...
also, i might be doing a layout change sooner or later for this website. i just haven't been too into html lately to bother thinking or writing up a new design...so, we'll see what happens, i suppose.
