ACorEx is a visualised corpus browser for corpus-based concatenative synthesis, similar to existing software such as AudioStellar and CataRT. It was created to investigate ideas of three-dimensional visualisation within CBCS, as well as find novel approaches to concatenative synthesis, utilising chronological segment information within the synthesis engine. The tool provides an interface for musical synthesis, as well as analysing and browsing collections of audio samples.
ACorEx was developed by Elowyn Fearne at the University of Huddersfield in England as part of her Master's by Research degree, utilising OpenFrameworks and FluCoMa-Core. The tool is open-source and free to use. It is available for Windows and MacOS, with a Linux version in development.
While development has slowed down, some updates are still planned — for queries and suggestions, please see the contact links.
