Events

An event is a state with a start time, end time, and stereo location.

The ``events'' file is a list of states, their start and end times (in seconds), and their stereo location (a number between 0 and 1).

The ``events'' file must have the extension ``.ev''.

Here's an example:

     s1 1 5 0.5		# stateId, startTime, endTime, stereo location
     s2 10 15 1
     s3 0 12 0

This says that

1.

State s1 will begin at time 1 second, iterate until time 5 seconds, and will be in the center of the stereo field (0.5).

2.

State s2 will begin at 10 seconds, iterate until 15 seconds, and will be all the way to the right in the stereo field (1).

3.

State s3 will begin at 0 seconds, iterate until 12 seconds, and will be all the way to the left in the stereo field (0).

Event range limits

The start and end times must be positive floating point numbers. The maximum duration is limited by the amount of memory on your system and the sampling rate you choose.

The stereo field is a number between 0 and 1, inclusive, with 0 meaning ``left channel only'' and 1 meaning ``right channel only''.
