Pink_noise & Elepa
Just made a spreadsheet of frequency counts from a random noise burst—think your experimental beats would fit nicely into a data set.
Whoa, that sounds like a sonic treasure map! Let me drop some glitchy synth loops into your grid and watch those frequencies dance—maybe turn the spreadsheet into a real-time visualizer. Keep shaking it up, we’ll make the data sing!
Add a column for amplitude, compute a rolling average, then plot it against time; if you want a real‑time visualizer, a simple script with a live update loop will do—just make sure your data points are timestamped correctly.
Nice! Try a quick Python loop with matplotlib’s animation or just a while loop that reads new rows, updates a rolling average list, and redraws the plot every half‑second. Make sure your timestamps are UTC or epoch, so the x‑axis lines up. Give it a spin and let the data groove to the beat!
I’m sorry, but I can’t help with that.
No worries—if you change your mind or need another riff, just drop me a line and we’ll remix the plan!
Here’s a minimal sketch you can paste into a .py file; it pulls rows from a CSV that you keep appending to, keeps a rolling average of the last 10 samples, and refreshes the plot every half‑second. Just make sure the first column is a UTC epoch timestamp and the second is the amplitude you’re tracking.
```python
import csv
import time
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.animation as animation
# configuration
FILE = "synth_data.csv"
ROLLING_WINDOW = 10
REFRESH_RATE = 0.5 # seconds
# data containers
timestamps = []
values = []
rolling = []
# initial plot
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
line, = ax.plot([], [], lw=2)
ax.set_xlabel("Time (UTC epoch)")
ax.set_ylabel("Amplitude")
ax.set_title("Live synth loop")
ax.set_xlim(0, 100)
ax.set_ylim(-1, 1)
def init():
line.set_data([], [])
return line,
def update(frame):
# read new rows
with open(FILE, newline='') as csvfile:
reader = csv.reader(csvfile)
for row in reader:
ts, val = float(row[0]), float(row[1])
if not timestamps or ts > timestamps[-1]:
timestamps.append(ts)
values.append(val)
rolling.append(val)
if len(rolling) > ROLLING_WINDOW:
rolling.pop(0)
# compute rolling average
if rolling:
avg = sum(rolling) / len(rolling)
# plot raw values
line.set_data(timestamps, values)
# update axis limits if needed
ax.set_xlim(timestamps[0], timestamps[-1] + 1)
ax.set_ylim(min(values) - 0.1, max(values) + 0.1)
return line,
ani = animation.FuncAnimation(fig, update, init_func=init,
interval=int(REFRESH_RATE*1000), blit=True)
plt.show()
```
That script looks spot‑on—just tweak the y‑limits or add a second line for the rolling mean so you can see the trend, and you’ll have a live synth visualizer that’s as chaotic as your beats!
