Like any audio synthesis or processing technique, delay networks become much
|
|
|
|
|
more powerful and interesting if their characteristics can be made to change
|
|
|
|
|
over time. The gain parameters (such as <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="11" HEIGHT="29" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img29.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$g$"> in the recirculating comb filter)
|
|
|
|
|
may be controlled by envelope generators, varying them while avoiding clicks or
|
|
|
|
|
other artifacts. The delay times (such as <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="11" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img28.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$d$"> before) are not so easy to vary
|
|
|
|
|
smoothly for two reasons.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
First, we have only defined time shifts for integer values of <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="11" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img28.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$d$">, since for
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$n$">. To make fractional delays
|
|
|
|
|
we will have to introduce some suitable interpolation scheme. And if we
|
|
|
|
|
wish to vary <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="11" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img28.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$d$"> smoothly over time, it will not give good results simply
|
|
|
|
|
to hop from one integer to the next.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Second, even once we have achieved perfectly smoothly changing delay
|
|
|
|
|
times, the artifacts caused by varying delay time become noticeable even at very
|
|
|
|
|
small relative rates of change; while in most cases you may ramp an amplitude
|
|
|
|
|
control between any two values over 30 milliseconds without trouble, changing a
|
|
|
|
|
delay by only one sample out of every hundred makes a very noticeable shift
|
|
|
|
|
in pitch--indeed, one frequently will vary a delay deliberately
|
|
|
|
|
in order to hear the artifacts, only incidentally passing from one specific
|
|
|
|
|
delay time value to another one.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The first matter (fractional delays) can be dealt with using an
|
|
|
|
|
interpolation scheme, in exactly the same way as for wavetable lookup
|
|
|
|
|
(Section <A HREF="node31.html#sect2.interpolation">2.5</A>). For example, suppose we want
|
|
|
|
|
a delay of <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="53" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img782.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$d=1.5$"> samples. For each <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="13" HEIGHT="13" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img75.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$n$"> we must estimate a value for
|
|
|
|
|
<IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="70" HEIGHT="32" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img783.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$x[n-1.5]$">.
|
|
|
|
|
We could do this using standard four-point interpolation, putting a cubic
|
|
|
|
|
polynomial through the four ``known" points (0, x[n]), (1, x[n-1]), (2, x[n-2]),
|
|
|
|
|
(3, x[n-3]), and then evaluating the polynomial at the point 1.5. Doing
|
|
|
|
|
this repeatedly for each value of <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="13" HEIGHT="13" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img75.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$n$"> gives the delayed signal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
This four-point interpolation scheme can be used for any delay of at least one
|
|
|
|
|
sample. Delays of less than one sample can't be calculated this way because we
|
|
|
|
|
need two input points at least as recent as the desired delay. They were
|
|
|
|
|
available in the above example, but for a delay time of 0.5 samples, for
|
|
|
|
|
instance, we would need the value of <IMG
|
|
|
|
|
WIDTH="58" HEIGHT="32" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
|
|
|
|
|
SRC="img784.png"
|
|
|
|
|
ALT="$x[n+1]$">, which is in the future.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The accuracy of the estimate could be further improved by using higher-order
|
|
|
|
|
interpolation schemes. However, there is a trade-off between quality and
|
|
|
|
|
computational efficiency. Furthermore, if we move to higher-order
|
|
|
|
|
interpolation schemes, the minimum possible delay time will increase, causing
|
|
|
|
|
trouble in some situations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The second matter to consider is the artifacts--whether wanted
|
|
|
|
|
or unwanted--that arise from changing delay lines. In
|
|
|
|
|
general, a discontinuous change in delay time will give rise to a
|
|
|
|
|
discontinuous change in the output signal, since it is in effect
|
|
|
|
|
interrupted at one point and made to jump to another. If the input is
|
|
|
|
|
a sinusoid, the result is a discontinuous phase change.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
If it is desired to change the delay line occasionally between fixed delay
|
|
|
|
|
times (for instance, at the beginnings of musical notes), then we can use the
|
|
|
|
|
techniques for managing sporadic discontinuities that were introduced in
|
|
|
|
|
Section <A HREF="node61.html#sect4.declick">4.3</A>. In effect these techniques all work by muting
|
|
|
|
|
the output in one way or another. On the other hand, if it is
|
|
|
|
|
desired that the delay time change continuously--while we are listening
|
|
|
|
|
to the output--then we must take into account the artifacts that
|
|
|
|
|
result from the changes.

This is called the
|
|
|
|
|
<A NAME="8132"></A><I>Doppler effect</I>, and it occurs in nature as well.
|
|
|
|
|
The air that sound travels through can sometimes be thought of as a delay
|
|
|
|
|
line. Changing the length of the delay line corresponds to moving the
|
|
|
|
|
listener toward or away from a stationary sound source; the Doppler effect
|
|
|
|
|
from the changing path length works precisely the same in the delay line as it
|
|
|
|
|
would be in the physical air.

<P>

|
|
|
Returning to Figure <A HREF="#fig07.17">7.17</A>, we can predict that there is no pitch
|
|
|
|
|
shift at the beginning, but then when the slope of the path decreases the
|
|
|
|
|
pitch will drop for an interval of time before going back to the original
|
|
|
|
|
pitch (when the slope returns to one). The delay time can be manipulated
|
|
|
|
|
to give any desired transposition, but the greater the transposition, the
|
|
|
|
|
less long we can maintain it before we run off the bottom or the top of the
|
|
|
|
|
diagonal region.
