<A NAME="8426"></A>Read from a delay line, with a time-varying delay time. As with the
|
|
|
|
|
<TT>delread~</TT> object, this reads from a delay line whose name is specified
|
|
|
|
|
as a creation argument. Instead of using a second argument and/or
|
|
|
|
|
control messages to specify the delay time, for the <TT>vd~</TT> object the delay in milliseconds is specified by an incoming audio signal.
|
|
|
|
|
The delay line is read using four-point (cubic) interpolation; the minimum
|
|
|
|
|
achievable delay is one sample.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Here the objects on the left side, from the top down to the
|
|
|
|
|
<TT>clip -0.2 0.2</TT> object,
|
|
|
|
|
form a waveshaping network; the index is set by the
|
2022-04-12 23:17:03 -03:00
|
|
|
"timbre" control, and the waveshaping output varies between a near sinusoid
|
2022-04-12 21:54:18 -03:00
|
|
|
and a bright, buzzy sound. The output is added to the output of the
|
|
|
|
|
<TT>vd~</TT> object. The sum is then high pass filtered (the <TT>hip~</TT> object
|
|
|
|
|
at lower left), multiplied by a
|
|
|
|
|
feedback gain, clipped, and written into the delay line at bottom right. There
|
|
|
|
|
is a control at right to set the feedback gain; here, in contrast with the
|
|
|
|
|
previous example, it is possible to specify a gain greater than one in order
|
|
|
|
|
to get unstable feedback. For this reason the second <TT>clip~</TT> object is
|
|
|
|
|
inserted within the delay loop (just above the <TT>delwrite~</TT> object) so
|
|
|
|
|
that the signal cannot exceed 1 in absolute value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The length of the delay is controlled by the signal input to the
|
|
|
|
|
<TT>vd~</TT> object. An oscillator with variable frequency and gain, in the
|
|
|
|
|
center of the figure, provides the delay time. The oscillator is added to
|
2022-04-12 23:17:03 -03:00
|
|
|
one to make it nonnegative before multiplying it by the "cycle depth" control,
|
2022-04-12 21:54:18 -03:00
|
|
|
which effectively sets the range of delay times. The minimum possible
|
|
|
|
|
delay time of 1.46 milliseconds is added so that the true range of delay times
|
2022-04-12 23:17:03 -03:00
|
|
|
is between the minimum and the same plus twice the "depth". The reason for this
|
2022-04-12 21:54:18 -03:00
|
|
|
minimum delay time is taken up in the discussion of the next example.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Comb filters with variable delay times are sometimes called <I>flangers</I>.
|
|
|
|
|
As the delay time changes the peaks in the frequency response move up and down
|
|
|
|
|
in frequency, so that the timbre of the output changes constantly in a
|
|
|
|
|
characteristic way.
