oscil

oscil — A simple oscillator.

Description

Table ifn is incrementally sampled modulo the table length and the value obtained is multiplied by amp.

Syntax

ares oscil xamp, xcps, ifn [, iphs]
kres oscil kamp, kcps, ifn [, iphs]

Initialization

ifn -- function table number. Requires a wrap-around guard point.

iphs (optional, default=0) -- initial phase of sampling, expressed as a fraction of a cycle (0 to 1). A negative value will cause phase initialization to be skipped. The default value is 0.

Performance

kamp, xamp -- amplitude

kcps, xcps -- frequency in cycles per second.

The oscil opcode generates periodic control (or audio) signals consisting of the value of kamp (xamp) times the value returned from control rate (audio rate) sampling of a stored function table. The internal phase is simultaneously advanced in accordance with the kcps or xcps input value.

Examples

Here is an example of the oscil opcode. It uses the file oscil.csd.
