time stretching and
pitch shifting library
DIRAC (formerly
ClearScale) is now
online in the Technology
category on

April
19, 2005 -- Here are
the latest (and last)
news regarding my
ClearScale project that
was aimed at bringing an
open source high end
time stretching and
pitch shifting to the
market, to be published
under the GPL.
Unfortunately, as it
happens frequently in
this educational
business, the company
who agreed on sponsoring
the development never
paid for it and the
money from donations (a
whopping 120 USD) wasn't
even enough to pay for
the costs of keeping the
site alive. However,
since I have the project
half finished already I
decided for a
compromise: ClearScale
will soon be available
as a free object library
for various platforms
called "Dirac". I will
not publish the source
code, but the basic
library is still free to
be used in commercial
and non-commercial
projects without
restriction. I plan on
making a professional
version available for a
licensing fee to finally
cover the development
costs, but the basic
library is free for the
time being. I think this
is fair enough,
considering the many
months development time
that went into creating
it. More on the Dirac
library will soon be
posted on the
DSPdimension at
http://www.dspdimension.com
when I'm finished
cleaning up and
redesigning the site.
ClearScale.org will
eventually be
closed.
