Thread: My 3 axis skull...in progress

PM me so I can email you the WAV.

I wasn't able to upload it to the forum.

Here is the file.

Right click on the link and choose "Save Target As" from the menu. Save it to your hard drive.

The original has been processed heavily, with an echo added. It has also been run through some kind of noise filter which has caused those odd frequency squeals called audio artifacts.

I have cleaned up the file as best I can and boosted some of the deficient bass frequencies.

I also muted all the dead spaces inbetween speaking. The background noise in the file will get programmed in as speech when you run waveform analysis.

Be sure your files are clean with no background noise before you do that.

Good luck.

I was trying to get rid of a hum that was in the background. I'm still learning about Goldwave.

Thank you for fixing it HB.

Then you can click on the red stop sign and record movements for the other servos.

Make sure to wear a helmet, you might hit yourself like you should have had a V8 like I did.

So, did you do wave analysis over and over for each of the servos? Once each for jaw, nod, tilt, and rotate? Interesting idea...

Just the Jaw. Then I recorded events for the rest.

Aye, wav analysis only be werkin' fer th' jaw, voices don' do much fer 'ead movements, 'less they be th' voices in yer 'ead.. mine keep sayin' "Stab th' 'eart, live ferever"

So, what power supplies are people using for their servos? Anyone find a good and cheap place to get them?

If ya has any power cubes from old routers (DLink be wot I use) they provide 5DVC at 2amps, enugh ta run 4-5 servos, or 4 an' th' comtroller. Be many computer PS's tha' work too, as they 'ave 5VDC taps..

This be a shameless plug fer me Pirate an' Spooky Font an' VSA page, 'tis over 1100 hits fer fonts, music, sounds, an' pirate clips..
