Overview

Micromontage technique allows the composer to work a musical figure point by point, shaping each sound particle with microscopic precision. Irin combines graphic and script editing with algorithmic generation and manipulation of sound sequences. It provides several tools to enhance both creation and organic development of the musical material under this compositional paradigm using a user-friendy visual environment.

IRIN in a glance

- Load up to 16 mono sound files of any size depending on the available RAM.

- From each sound Buffer, select a fragment and edit it in several ways to obtain a sample

- Place this sample on any one of the 4 available tracks, knowing that tracks are polyphonic

and sound parameters are a track independent feature.

- Store samples in a sample library.

- Encapsulate sample sequences into a Figure and submit it to several variation operations.

Store all produced Figures into a library.

- Merge and combine several Figures into a “Meso-structure” and submit it to several

variation operations. Store the Meso-structures into a library.

- Add customisable shapes and colours to every edited sample.

- Control all operations graphically through several editing and a 4 track Timeline.

- Render the final result into a multichannel audio file.
