App Turns Pictures Into Sound

US FlexibeatzII releases Paint2Sound for Windows      16/04/12

Paint2Sound is a neat little free application for converting any .jpg or .bmp image or any picture you care to draw/paint, into a soundscape. Paint2Sound's developer believes that that it can bring a new dimension to your music making, or at the very least give you a unique way of coming up with interesting sounding samples.
Each pixel row represents a frequency band. The application synthesizes sine waves for each pixel row with an instantaneous amplitude determined by the brightness of each pixel in the pixel row, and then sums together all the sine waves. There is user control over various parameters like sample rate, sound duration, how frequencies are distributed across the pixel rows and the overall level in the mix of each sine wave.
