Is it possible to make GLaDOS like effect?

Hi there
I must admit, that I never use Audition. It comes with the bundle, and I thtough, I would give it a go for a change.
Would any of you happen to know, if it's possible to modify my sound files to make them sound like GLaDOS from Portal?
I genereate my voice files using Mac's text-to-speach feature.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
regards
Mona

I must admit that I had to Google GLaDOS to hear an example--I'd never hear of her before your post.
However, having had a listen, I'd have to say that at least half the effect is the actress speaking in an artificial sounding mechanical rhythm.  You'd think that this would make the text-to-speech idea--but, in fact, Apple are doing their best to make that sound real, NOT artificial.  This, plus the lack of control you'll have (you can't direct a Mac like you can an actress) makes the success of your project luck of the draw.
As MusicConductor says, the electronic part of the effect sounds like it's done with some form of pitch corrector...Autotune or similar.  Audition has a built in pitch corrector but whether it'll give the same sound...and whether the sound will work without an actress speaking in the proper cadence...will be a matter of experimenting.

    Uh, yes? Draw an oval shape, then attach a pointer? Or draw one entirely from sracth using the Pen tool? That's what those drawing tools are for? So, yeah sure, it's "possible", and it's done using the drawing tools (unless you need instructions on How Do I Use Those Drawing Tools, Then -- in that case I gladly refer you to the Online Help).

  • I'm using GarageBand 10.0.1. Do the built-in drum tracks only come in mono format, or is it possible to make them true stereo (i.e. Left and Right channels outputing different signals, to sound like the kit has been panned across the stereo field)?

    I'm using GarageBand 10.0.1. Do the built-in drum tracks only come in mono format, or is it possible to make them true stereo (i.e. Left and Right channels putting out different signals, to sound like the kit has been panned across the stereo field)?

    All the Drum Kits available for GarageBand are mixed in stereo.
    Logic provides the same 18 Drum Kits also as "Producer Kits", which are multi-track outputs,. Each Drum Kit Piece (Kick, Snare, HH, etc) and also room mice and overheads are routed to individual channel strips.
    Here is a screenshot of one Drum Kit in Logic Pro X with individual Channels Strips. Each Channel Strip can be loaded with individual effects (compressor) and adduced with individual sends, etc.
    What that means is that all the Drummers are professionally recorded and sampled with individual mics. The Stereo Drums Kits are just "stereo mix-downs" for easier handling and less CPU demand. I explain all the details about the Drummer ecosystem in my graphically enhanced manual "GarageBand X - How it Works"
    Hope that helps

    Soory, no, it is not possible. You can only combine multiple copies of the same book into one order.

  • Is it possible to make a text box cycle/rotate through text, like a slide show does?

    Is it possible to make a text box cycle through 3 or 4 separate pieces/groups of text, like a slide show does with photos? So that when I open my site a text area says "Statement 1", then 10 seconds later it changes to "Statement 2", then 10 seconds later it chagnes to "Statement 3", etc.
    Its that possible with a text box? My desire is to have 3 or 4 testimonials that change every 10 seconds.
    You can see that right now it's a single testimonial:
    www.kmlstudio.com
    All help is appreciated
    Thanks!
    Kevin

    Right.  Some plugins have zip file downloads while others are just copy & paste.
    In DW, go to File > New > Blank page > JavaScript.
    Copy & paste the Cycle plugin code into your new JS page. 
    SaveAs   cycle.2.9.81.js  in whichever site folder you normally keep scripts.
    Link your HTML page to your new cycle script:
    Insert > Script > Script (browse to folder containing your cycle script). Hit OK.
    Don't forget to add a link to the jQuery core library, too.  Plugins don't work without it.

    Is it possible to make a 2D array (or whatever-dimension) array like this...

    is it possible to make an array like that?
    if it is, please tell me how to do it...
    thanks.
    ... I'm trying to make an emulator to emulate the simplest memory.

    Given your other posts, I'm assuming you mean in C, right?
    If so, the answer is yes, but specifically how will depend on a needed clarification of your question.  What you present doesn't really need to be a 2 dimensional array, just one: that looks like a simple list of memory addresses, right?
    At the simplest you can declare an array with two dimensions `iny myarray[2][3];` but to make the table you put up there you'd only need `int *myarray[3];`
    If you also wanted space allocated somewhere that each element of that list pointed to, you could allocate them separately:
    int *myarray[3];
    myarray[0] = (int *) malloc(sizeof(int));
    myarray[1] = (int *) malloc(sizeof(int));
    myarray[2] = (int *) malloc(sizeof(int));
    Obviously with many entries this should be in a loop.  Perhaps not as obviously, why would you not just malloc a larger block of memory to start with?
    What is the end goal?
    EDIT: actually, upon rereading your question, the mallocs are probably irrelevant.  `int *myarray[3]` will get you the array you are looking for.  Just realize that until you point those pointers to memory you 'own' you shouldn't assign to or read from them.

  • How to make a rubber effect like when you swipe between apps using 4 fingers on iPad ?

    Hey guys,
    So how to make a rubber effect like when you swipe between apps (first or last app) using 4 fingers on iPad iOS7 ? Any examples ?
    Thanks!
    Ivan

    Please do not double post the same question.
    Just like I said before. Animate X scale and position. Set the anchor point of the left image to the left side. You can then use an expression or just generate keyframes for scale. When you flip to the next screen then animate position. Easy basic animation except for the bounce. Key framing the bounce so that it looks natural takes a lot of experience or an expression.
    Google bounce expression after effects and find this. http://www.motion-graphics-exchange.com/after-effects/Wiggle-rubber-bounce-throw-inertia-e xpressions/4ad0f32a944ad
    There are a bunch of other solutions.
    There is no single click solution to this problem and it is not an effect, it is an animation.

  • Is it possible to make is so that, immediately after I import a new clip into FCP, the file is automatically selected in the Event Library? (Similar to how After Effects and Premiere work).

    Is it possible to make is so that, immediately after I import a new clip into FCPX, the file is automatically selected in the Event Library? (Similar to how After Effects and Premiere work). Right now, after I import a new file, I have to then go searching for it amid all the other files in my project. It would be extremely helpful if the file I just imported was already highlighted and selected after import, making it instantly "locatable" and ready to go.

    in a perfect world, you do know the recording date, and you simply scroll to that date.
    in a very perfect world, all your other imports are already tagged, so just have to create a smart list 'unrated' ...
    (I know those messy Events… a friend of mine constantly ignores my advice to check the time/date on his camera; on every battery swap, the cam creates a very erratic timestamp ... his actual recordings are listed as made in "2004" or in "2020" .... )

  • I am living USA and Mexico for my work and I do have account in USA but is that possible to make Mexican account same time? I like to keep USA account when I'm in USA

    I am living USA and Mexico for my work and I do have account in USA but is that possible to make Mexican account same time? I like to keep USA account when I'm in USA

    If you have a valid payment method in Mexico (e.g. Mexican credit card) billed to a Mexican address then I guess you could.  There are certain disadvantages to having more than one account, but in your case I don't see they apply.  Just make sure you have copies of everything you buy from each country on backup because you will no longer be able to redownload items when you can no longer use that country's store.

    Assuming the pdf is contained in the application folder when the app is then compiled? Is the pdf contained in the app, or does it get installed somewhere?
    Sure, you can create an app that only opens up a PDF. The usual place for that kind of stuff is in the application's bundle, which Xcode will do if you add the PDF to your project.

  • How to make something like this in Edge Animate?

    Hi,
    I'm hoping to make something like this – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJeDppEHI1g – in Edge Animate but I'm not sure where to start.
    I'm new to Edge but am keen to explore.
    Anyone have any feedback on whether:
    1. It's possible, and
    2. What techniques/effects have been used.
    Thanks!

    Hi there and welcome,
      Could you be a little more specific on what it is exactly that you would want to create? Most of what I can see from that website is doable in Edge Animate, but if you specify what it is you'd like to accomplish I could walk you through how to do it.
    Thanks!

  • How to turn the surround-sound-like effect off with headphones?

    When I plug in the headphones into my ipad I notice the sound in the headphones becomes kinda surround-like. For instance I clearly hear keyboard clicks "at a distance" in front of me when using headphones. This "effect" is nice for keyboard clicks but totally ruins any music listening experience because any song gets distorted and is perceived at some distance when played. This becomes extremely annoying when listening to mono content. The special sound processing applied to get this surrround-like sound effect adds artefacts into the sound, please let me know how to turn this off Apple, I couldn't find any option in the settings.
    Overall, I couldn't even imagine I'd get such an annoying and unprofessional effect applied by default without a possibility to turn it off. If I knew that in advance I'd never buy my ipad since currently it's not possible to listen to music with it
    Message was edited by: vvtrus

    vvtrus, did you ever consider that turning off the clicks or other sounds might have an effect? So, before telling people who want to help you that an answer makes no sense to you, you might first try it.
    Since hearing and listening to music is a very subjective matter which also depends on the quality of the headphones you use, it might be the case that you hear on your iPod something that you couldn't hear on your laptop and portable music player (both of non-apple design). Then you should blame those other devices to deliver you such poor sound. On the other hand, you might have a better hearing than other people which might give you the impression of surround-sound-like effects -- in which case we can't help you either.
    Anyway, there are no settings to turn on or off "surround sound effects".

  • The reporting point backflush is not possible for make-to-stock repetitive

    Hi All,
    we are using the assembly backflush in the MTS REM process. we are need to do the reporting point backflush
    if we tick against the RP backflush. what will be the effect in the process while confirmation.
    i read the sap library . it say like
    The reporting point backflush is not possible for make-to-stock repetitive manufacturing.
    is it correct.
    Thanks
    VRaj

    Hi mangal,
    i did all the setting as you said. but when click on the reporting point.
    system thru error
    Error reading reporting point information
    Message no. RM111
    Diagnosis
    The repetitive manufacturing profile is set for the reporting point procedure. However, either no reporting points exist for the material or they are incorrect. Two common reasons for this are:
    The repetitive manufacturing profile has been changed in the current session.
    You have not defined any milestone operations in the routing.
    When creating the product cost collector, no reporting points were created.
    Procedure
    Two alternative solutions are possible:
    Assign a repetitive manufacturing profile with no reporting point procedure to the material in the material master record.
    Recreate the reporting points by recosting the product cost collector. To do this, the following prerequisites must be met:
    In the material master record, in the production version, you must enter a routing under either detailed planning (first priority) or under rate-based planning (second priority).
    Milestone operations must exist in this routing. The system ususally automatically creates the reporting points from these milestones when creating a product cost collector or when creating a production version.
