Dr Oswaldo Antonio Gonzalez Lizausaba is the creator of the Escalador and the Escalador Audio
On may 2017, Oswaldo Gonzalez by thinking about how to construct sonic spaces related by elements other than tones or semitones, he began to implement some research ideas using conventional applications as a spreadsheet program. Little by little he was able to integrate some basic functions as for example, relating frequencies with their respective musical note names and calibrating the cents constants factors.
Then Oswaldo Gonzalez realised that the spreadsheet program was too limited for the purpose of reaching more complex tasks. So, he decided to develop a more appropriate platform to continue the research. At that point, Oswaldo Gonzalez turned his research into an object-based computer language, offering the possibility to use many different types of objects as buttons, windows, fields, graphics, etc. In doing so, he created the application Escalador. The Escalador is the application for constructing scales, frequencies spaces etc.
The Escalador Audio is the audio player by which scales made with Escalador (calculator) can be heard. Of course the Escalador Audio is a sound complex platform (DSP) by itself that can be used also as a sophisticated sound instrument.
