Can chramp shape be animated / controlled by a audio (spectrum chop)

[crispr_boi]

How can we control the shape of a chramp (created in a point wrangle) with a spectrum chop and therefore animate the shape?

I already posted a question related to this, but maybe it was worded confusingly or seemed difficult..as no one answered.

So I am asking generally, alternative solutions are welcome.

@crispr_boi here you have 3 ex ..for one of them you must have HMT..Have fun and post your final result.

 

RampattributsChop.hiplc

and you get some answer elsewhere

with spare parm
 

import random 

node = hou.node("../pointwrangle1") # has a ramp spare parameter called "r" on it
geo = node.geometry()

random.seed(hou.frame() + 123)
a = random.uniform(0, 1) # get your chop value here somehow

r0 = node.parmTuple("r1value")
r0.set([a])

random.seed(hou.frame() + 456)
b = random.uniform(0, 1)

r1 = node.parmTuple("r2value")
r1.set([b])

Thank you! I wlil take a look at it!

So, I installed the HMT toolset, it seems like I can create the HMT nodes without issues.

But when opening your file, everything on the left in "do operation with standard point attributes" does not cook, because of errors.

So the example on the left doesn't work for me.

 

And the examples on the right seem to work well, but I am not good enough to understand it and combine it my setup, I'm afraid.

I appreciate your help Tesan, but your setup is too advanced or confusing for me to combine with my setup, sorry.

One day..

 

Is this VEX code in your post somewhere in the file? I couldn't find it..

Would you tell me where it is, or where you find it and what it does?

I would like to know, how to animate the chramp's shape (in the linked post), with the spectrum chop.

Like how do I get the spectrum chop's value there?

@crispr_boi this its your question or LINK
its python

Oh! I didn't see that yet.  That was my post indeed.

Thank you!

@Librarian I am not good enough to use their advice in my setup. I don't know how to modify the Python code to use it in my setup.

I tried it, but failed.

I also don't understand how to feed the chopnet  data into the setup.

@Librarian someone posted a solution to my original post on OdForce, if you want to have a look.
