LFPar | SuperCollider 3.12.2 Help

Description

A sine-like shape made of two parabolas and the integral of a triangular wave. It has audible odd harmonics and is non-band-limited. Output ranges from -1 to +1.

Class Methods

LFPar.ar(freq: 440.0, iphase: 0.0, mul: 1.0, add: 0.0)

From superclass: LFSaw

LFPar.kr(freq: 440.0, iphase: 0.0, mul: 1.0, add: 0.0)

From superclass: LFSaw

Arguments:

freq	Frequency in Hertz.
iphase	Initial phase offset. For efficiency reasons this is a value ranging from 0 to 4.
mul	Output will be multiplied by this value.
add	This value will be added to the output.

Examples

// a plot
{ LFPar.ar(Line.kr(100, 800, 0.1)) }.plot(0.1);

// 440 Hz wave
{ LFPar.ar(440) * 0.1 }.play;

// modulating frequency:
{ LFPar.ar(XLine.kr(100, 2000, 10)) * 0.1 }.play;

// amplitude modulation:
{ LFPar.kr(XLine.kr(1, 200, 10)) * SinOsc.ar(440) * 0.1 }.play;

// used as both Oscillator and LFO:
{ LFPar.ar(LFPar.kr(3, 0.3, 200, 400)) * 0.1 }.play;

// used as phase modulator (behaves like a triangular modulator in FM):
// Compare:
{SinOsc.ar(440, LFPar.ar(1, 2, mul: 8pi))}.play
{SinOsc.ar(440 + LFTri.ar(1, mul: 8pi))}.play
