Prefabricated time-varying band-pass filter< / A >
< / H2 >
< P >
Time-varying band-pass filtering, as often used in classical
subtractive synthesis (Section < A HREF = "node152.html#sect08.subtractive" > 8.4.1< / A > ), can be done
using the < TT > vcf~< / TT > object, introduced here:

2022-04-12 21:54:18 -03:00
similar to < TT > bp~< / TT > , but with a signal inlet to control center frequency.
Both < TT > bp~< / TT > and < TT > vcf~< / TT > are one-pole resonant filters as
developed in Section < A HREF = "node143.html#sect8.twopolebandpass" > 8.3.4< / A > ; < TT > bp~< / TT > outputs only
the real part of the resulting signal, while < TT > vcf~< / TT > outputs the
real and imaginary parts separately.

Example H04.filter.sweep.pd (Figure < A HREF = "#fig08.29" > 8.29< / A > ) demonstrates using the < TT > vcf~< / TT > object for a simple and characteristic subtractive synthesis task. A
< TT > phasor~< / TT > object (at top) creates a sawtooth wave to filter. (This is
not especially good practice as we are not controlling the possibility of
foldover; a better sawtooth generator for this purpose will be developed in
2022-04-12 23:17:03 -03:00
Chapter 10.) The second < TT > phasor~< / TT > object (labeled "LFO for sweep")
2022-04-12 21:54:18 -03:00
controls the time-varying center frequency. After adjusting to set the depth
and a base center frequency (given in MIDI units), the result is converted into
Hertz (using the < TT > tabread4~< / TT > object) and passed to < TT > vcf~< / TT > to set
its center frequency. Another example of using a < TT > vcf~< / TT > object for
subtractive synthesis is demonstrated in example H05.filter.floyd.pd.
