Figure <A HREF="#fig06.08">6.8</A> shows

|
|

|
the PAF as a block diagram, separated into a phase
|
|
|
|
|
generation step, a carrier, and a modulator. The phase generation step
|
|
|
|
|
outputs a sawtooth signal at the fundamental frequency.
|
|
|
|
|
The modulator is done by standard waveshaping, with a slight twist added.
|
|
|
|
|
The formula for the modulator signals in the PAF call for an incoming
|
|
|
|
|
sinusoid at half the fundamental frequency, i.e., <!-- MATH

$\sin({\omega \over 2})$

we may substitute the absolute value of the sinusoid:

Although the wavetable function is pictured over both negative and positive

If the index of modulation exceeds the input range of the table (here set

|
|
|
|
|
clipped. The table should extend far enough into the tail of the waveshaping

|

function so that the effect of clipping is inaudible.

|
|

|
|
When processing digital audio signals at a fixed sample rate (as we're doing),

it is never possible to have the process's <I>current</I> output as an input,
|
|
|
|
|
since at the time we would need it we haven't yet calculated it. The best
|
|
|
|
|
we can hope for is to use the previous sample of output--in effect, adding
|
|
|
|
|
one sample of delay. In block environments (such as Max, Pd, and Csound) the
|
|
|
|
|
situation becomes more complicated, but we will delay discussing that until

the next chapter (and simply wish away the problem in the examples at the

end of this one).

Since the expansion of the waveshaping (modulator) signal consists of all
|
|
|
|
|
cosine terms (i.e., since they all have initial phase zero), as do the two
|
|
|
|
|
components of the carrier, it follows from the cosine product formula that the
|
|
|
|
|
components of the result are all cosines as well. This means that any number of
|
|
|
|
|
PAF generators, if they are made to share the same oscillator for phase
|
|
|
|
|
generation, will all be in phase and combining them gives the sum of the
|
|
|
|
|
individual spectra. So we can make a multiple-formant version as shown in

Figure <A HREF="#fig06.11">6.12</A> shows a possible output of a pair of formants generated
|
|
|
|
|
this way; the first formant is centered halfway between partials 3 and 4, and
|
|
|
|
|
the second at partial 12, with lower amplitude and bandwidth. The Cauchy
|
|
|
|
|
waveshaping function was used, which makes linearly sloped spectra (viewed
|
|
|
|
|
in dB). The two superpose additively, so that the spectral envelope curves
|
|
|
|
|
smoothly from one formant to the other. The lower formant also adds to its
|
|
|
|
|
own reflection about the vertical axis, so that it appears slightly curved

|
upward there.

The PAF generator can be altered if desired to make inharmonic spectra by
|
|
|
|
|
sliding the partials upward or downward in frequency. To do this, add a second
|
|
|
|
|
oscillator to the phase of both carrier cosines, but not to the phase of the
|
|
|
|
|
modulation portion of the diagram, nor to the controlling phase of the
|
|
|
|
|
sample-and-hold units. It turns out that the sample-and-hold strategy for
|
|
|
|
|
smooth parameter updates still works; and furthermore, multiple PAF generators
|
|
|
|
|
sharing the same phase generation portion will still be in phase with each
|
|
|
|
|
other.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
This technique for superposing spectra does not work as predictably for phase
|
|
|
|
|
modulation as it does for the PAF generator; the partials of the phase
|
|
|
|
|
modulation output have complicated phase relationships and they seem difficult
|
|
|
|
|
to combine coherently. In general, phase modulation will give more complicated
|
|
|
|
|
patterns of spectral evolution, whereas the PAF is easier to predict and turn to
|
|
|
|
|
specific desired effects.
