Hey, Luca. I work as a developer
for noise related applications (in particular we manage aircraft noise and in general noise pollution).
Very interesting!
1. Do you think that ChucK could be a profitable choice to have this job done?
Let me get this straight; you would like to analyse a signal for things like amplitude, RMS power and spectral distribution, possibly compensating for the sensitivity of hearing so you can determine whether you need sound-proofing and if so of what kind? If so then yes; I would say that could be done. One big issue for applications like yours, where there will be regulations, will be calibrating the whole system (mic, pre-amp, analysis, analysis display) but that is a issue that is quite universal in that field. I think ChucK would be a better choice for this than PD, I'm not sure how it would compare to Faust. Yours, Kas.
