pmix is a python script that selects a random number of random length segments of audio files randomly selected from a pool, applies a randomly chosen degree of time stretching or compressing, loops the mangled segments and mixes the whole mess down to stereo. The current version runs automatically. A live mode with manual control of mixing and effect parameters is in progress. Other planned modes are listed below. Eventually guitar_mix will be rewritten as a pmix mode. The pool contains sounds collected since 1996 on cassette tape, since summer 2004 on miniDV and previous output of pmix, guitar_mix, *osar, megim and some unpublished projects. Future modes: stt soundfont generator .beef generator sound composition pallet omni i/o effect out to guitar amp w/live guitar -Eric Dantan Rzewnicki
