Sine oscillator

ATMOSYNTH built-in module

A sine wave, pitched by the note played. The simplest sound source there is. What is patched into Detune can move the pitch by up to four octaves, which is what a kick drum is: an envelope that drops a sine from a click to a boom in the first moments of the note. The Detune knob sets the pitch up to four octaves either side of the note, so a sub-bass or a whistle is a setting rather than something to patch.

Four notes played on it, from a Keyboard, as a patch plays it.

What it is made of

Ports: note input ‘Note’, audio input ‘Detune’, audio output ‘Out’.

  • ‘note’: note input · port midi
  • ‘osc’: Oscillator · wave sine · into ‘out’ · detune turned by ‘Detune (cents)’
  • ‘out’: audio output · port out
  • ‘detunein’: audio input · port detune · into ‘detunedepth’
  • ‘detunedepth’: Gain · modulates the detune of ‘osc’ · level turned by ‘Detune amount (cents)’
  • ‘Detune (cents)’: knob, -4800 to 4800 cents
  • ‘Detune amount (cents)’: knob, 0 to 4800
