Hi Agustin,

Did you see these tutorials in the wiki?
http://clam.iua.upf.edu/wikis/clam/index.php/Main_Page#Development

For example, to build your own filter, give a look at:
http://clam.iua.upf.edu/wikis/clam/index.php/Creating_a_minimal_processing_object

Also there a lot of examples at 'CLAM/examples/' directory

If you're a bit lost i'd recommend you start with something simpler
(like connecting a source to a sink) and then start adding complexity
step by step (sometimes, for a particular problem, is better ask
showing some code)

For new processes, I also recommend you a plugin approach
(http://clam.iua.upf.edu/wikis/clam/index.php/Building_a_processing_library)

Remember, with clam, you can take different approaches to solve the
problem, i.e. and standalone command line application, coding all by
hand (of course with the help of the framework) or solve it building a
network of processings (a lot already available) with the
NetworkEditor (and possibly creating new processings needed like
plugins) and then play it inside the editor or also you're able to run
it from a standalone command-line app (indeed you can associate it to
a GUI, mapping controls and monitors)

cheers,
