Continuous and discontinuous control changes
|
||||
</H1>
|
||||
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Synthesis algorithms vary widely in their ability to deal with discontinuously
|
||||
changing controls. Until now in this chapter we have assumed that controls
|
||||
must change continuously, and the ADSR envelope generator turns out
|
||||
to be ideally suited for such controls. It may even happen that
|
||||
the maximum amplitude of a note is less than the current value of the amplitude
|
||||
of its predecessor (using the same generator) and the ADSR envelope will simply
|
||||
ramp down (instead of up) to the new value for an attack.
|
||||
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
This isn't necessarily desirable, however, in situations where an envelope
|
||||
generator is in charge of some aspect of timbre: perhaps, for example, we don't
|
||||
want the sharpness of a note to decrease during the attack to a milder one, but
|
||||
rather to jump to a much lower value so as always to be able to rise during the
|
||||
attack.
|
||||
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
This situation also can arise with pitch envelopes: it may be desirable to
|
||||
slide pitch from one note to the next, or it may be desirable that the pitch
|
||||
trajectory of each note start anew at a point independent of the previous
|
||||
sound.
|
||||
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Two situations arise when we wish to make discontinuous changes to synthesis
|
||||
parameters: either we can simply make them without disruption (for instance,
|
||||
making a discontinuous change in pitch); or else we can't, such as a change in
|
||||
a wavetable index (which makes a discontinuous change in the output). There
|
||||
are even parameters that can't <I>possibly</I> be changed continuously; for
|
||||
example, a selection among a collection of wavetables. In general,
|
||||
discontinuously changing the phase of an oscillator or the amplitude of a
|
||||
signal will cause an audible artifact, but phase increments (such as pitches)
|
||||
may jump without bad results.
|
||||
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
In those cases where a parameter change can't be made continuously for one
|
||||
reason or another, there are at least two strategies for making the change
|
||||
cleanly:
|
||||
<I>muting</I> and <I>switch-and-ramp</I>.
