Audio analyser not working anymore

{img src = “http://s18.postimage.org/d5egb0bxz/Capture.jpg”}

i havent worked on this project in a while, apparently audio analysis doesnt work anymore, nothing changed though, what can i do?

you should realize this is quite a vague question.
give us some details:

  • which version of vvvv did the patch work with
  • which version of vvvv does it fail with
  • any hardware/driver changes for your soundcard
  • what does tty report
  • and possibly a patch
    see?

i creatd the project on 45.27 and am still using that. i havent changed anything on my system sincei created it. i dont know what tty is, and as from the picture its saying the problem is the input device “stereomix”. once again nothing changed so i dont know what to do about that, it doesnt give me any other options besides that. ive attached the problem node.

AudioAnalysis (DShow9).v4p (5.4 kB)

I think you will find that it’s working fine. Note that most modern sound cards won’t let you use stereomix. That’s why it’s red but it still works- if you have a mike input it’s probably listening to that.

also the tty joreg mentions is like a debug console sort of thing. Type in “renderer (tty)” and you will get one. Actually a good idea to have in general.

it wasnt red when it was working and its not working now cause when i had it working all i had to do was play some music and it would react. I created the tty renderer node but i have no way of connecting it to anything.

Note that if you create a TTY renderer, save the patch, close vvvv and reopen the patch, TTY would show what’s happening. Then you can select text inside it, copy it with CTRL+C and post it here.

Ciao

right click the speaker in the taskbar notification area. Pick recording devices. Unless you see stereo mix as an option here, vvvv won’t be able to access it.

you can:

  • plug a physical loopback (plug an actual audio cable out>in)
  • use a software loopback (eg. virtual audio cable)
  • play your music from within vvvv

I dont see stereomix in the recording device list, how do i use a software loopback?

edit: when i create a new io box and connect it that FFT pin it just shows null, so it doesnt appear to be reading any devices at all.

edit2: i also tried to use the io box for the audio driver that has the ‘aux in’ setting to connect it to the audioindevice pin (since thats the right setting in my recording devices) but it still wont read it.

Heres the tty report:

i updated my drivers and it made the stereomix appear, but it still gave errors like it wasnt there, odd.
