Tonight i have been working on a simple Max/MSP patch which takes an audio file and converts the samples into integers. The bit depth can be set between 1 and 16. The data is then output as a text file. Might be useful for some.
Download this patch here: http://milkcrate.com.au/_other/downloads/max_patches/audio2bits.pat
To use it:
• Press the READ button to load in an audio file
• Select the number of samples to convert (starting at the first sample of the file)
• Select the number of bits in the conversion process
• Select GO to proceed with the conversion
• Press STOP to pause and CLEAR to reset the process
• The INDEX field will indicate the sample index progress of the conversion
• Select WRITE TEXT FILE to output the sample conversion as a text file

Thanks - very cool!
any chance of a standalone version for those without Max/MSP?
hmmm, you should be able to run it in one of the Max/MSP environments, which can be downloaded from the cycling74 website...
let me know if it doesn't work.
yup works in max.
hope the runtime still works after the demo expires
:)
Yep the Max/MSP runtime will still work just fine after the demo has expired.
hi man, really nice work! should be a nice alternative to some sample to text convertions out there... btw, how can you resynthisze text to audio in max? it wouldnt be as simple as using sig~, isnt it?
