Oscillators based on mathematical functions

Note that there is a numerical problem with several phasor functions built using the internal phasor_imp. The reason is that the incremental step is smaller than ma.EPSILON, which happens with very small frequencies, so it will have no effect when summed to 1, but it will be enough to make the fractional function wrap around when summed to 0. An example of this problem can be observed when running the following code:

process = os.phasor(1.0, -.001);

The output of this program is the sequence 1, 0, 1, 0, 1... This happens because the negative incremental step is greater than -ma.EPSILON, which will have no effect when summed to 1, but it will be significant enough to make the fractional function wrap around when summed to 0.

The incremental step can be clipped to guarantee that the phasor will always run correctly for its full cycle, otherwise, for increments smaller than ma.EPSILON, phasor would initially run but it'd eventually get stuck once the output gets big enough.

All functions using phasor_imp are affected by this problem, but a safer version is implemented, and can be used alternatively by setting SAFE=1 in the environment using explicit sustitution syntax.

For example: process = os[SAFE=1;].phasor(1.0, -.001); will use the safer implementation of phasor_imp.

Low Frequency Sawtooths

Sawtooth waveform oscillators for virtual analog synthesis et al. The 'simple' versions (lf_rawsaw, lf_sawpos and saw1), are mere samplings of the ideal continuous-time ("analog") waveforms. While simple, the aliasing due to sampling is quite audible. The differentiated polynomial waveform family (saw2, sawN, and derived functions) do some extra processing to suppress aliasing (not audible for very low fundamental frequencies). According to Lehtonen et al. (JASA 2012), the aliasing of saw2 should be inaudible at fundamental frequencies below 2 kHz or so, for a 44.1 kHz sampling rate and 60 dB SPL presentation level; fundamentals 415 and below required no aliasing suppression (i.e., saw1 is ok).

Method

Differentiated Polynomial Wave (DPW).

Reference

"Alias-Suppressed Oscillators based on Differentiated Polynomial Waveforms", Vesa Valimaki, Juhan Nam, Julius Smith, and Jonathan Abel, IEEE Tr. Audio, Speech, and Language Processing (IEEE-ASLP), Vol. 18, no. 5, pp 786-798, May 2010. 10.1109/TASL.2009.2026507.

Notes

The polynomial order N is limited to 4 because noise has been observed at very low freq values. (LFO sawtooths should of course be generated using lf_sawpos instead.)

(os.)sawNp

Same as (os.)sawN but with a controllable waveform phase.

Usage

sawNp(N,freq,phase) : _

where

  • N: waveform interpolation polynomial order 1 to 4 (constant integer expression)
  • freq: frequency in Hz
  • phase: waveform phase as a fraction of one period (rounded to nearest sample)

Implementation Notes

The phase offset is implemented by delaying sawN(N,freq) by round(phase*ma.SR/freq) samples, for up to 8191 samples. The minimum sawtooth frequency that can be delayed a whole period is therefore ma.SR/8191, which is well below audibility for normal audio sampling rates.

(os.)saw2, (os.)saw3, (os.)saw4

Alias-Suppressed Sawtooth Audio-Frequency Oscillators of order 2, 3, 4.

Usage

saw2(freq) : _
saw3(freq) : _
saw4(freq) : _

where

  • freq: frequency in Hz
References

See sawN above.

Implementation Notes

Presently, only saw2 uses the PTR method, while saw3 and saw4 use DPW. This is because PTR has been implemented and tested for the 2nd-order case only.

(os.)saw2ptr

Alias-Suppressed Sawtooth Audio-Frequency Oscillator using Polynomial Transition Regions (PTR) for order 2.

Usage

saw2ptr(freq) : _

where

  • freq: frequency in Hz
Implementation

Polynomial Transition Regions (PTR) method for aliasing suppression.

References
Notes

Method PTR may be preferred because it requires less computation and is stateless which means that the frequency freq can be modulated arbitrarily fast over time without filtering artifacts. For this reason, saw2 is presently defined as saw2ptr.

(os.)saw2dpw

Alias-Suppressed Sawtooth Audio-Frequency Oscillator using the Differentiated Polynomial Waveform (DWP) method.

Usage

saw2dpw(freq) : _

where

  • freq: frequency in Hz

This is the original Faust saw2 function using the DPW method. Since saw2 is now defined as saw2ptr, the DPW version is now available as saw2dwp.

(os.)sawtooth

Alias-suppressed aliasing-suppressed sawtooth oscillator, presently defined as saw2. sawtooth is a standard Faust function.

Usage

sawtooth(freq) : _

with

  • freq: frequency in Hz

(os.)saw2f2, (os.)saw2f4

Alias-Suppressed Sawtooth Audio-Frequency Oscillator with Order 2 or 4 Droop Correction Filtering.

Usage

saw2f2(freq) : _
saw2f4(freq) : _

with

  • freq: frequency in Hz

In return for aliasing suppression, there is some attenuation near half the sampling rate. This can be considered as beneficial, or it can be compensated with a high-frequency boost. The boost filter is second-order for saw2f2 and fourth-order for saw2f4, and both are designed for the DWP case and therefore use saw2dpw. See Figure 4(b) in the DPW reference for a plot of the slight droop in the DPW case.

Reference

(os.)sidebands

Adds harmonics to quad oscillator.

Usage

   cos(x),sin(x) : sidebands(vs) : _,_

Where:

  • vs : list of amplitudes

Example test program

   cos(x),sin(x) : sidebands((10,20,30))

outputs:

   10*cos(x) + 20*cos(2*x) + 30*cos(3*x),
   10*sin(x) + 20*sin(2*x) + 30*sin(3*x);

The following:

   process = os.quadosc(F) : sidebands((10,20,30))

is (modulo floating point issues) the same as:

   c = os.quadosc : _,!;
   s = os.quadosc : !,_;
   process =
       10*c(F) + 20*c(2*F) + 30*c(F),
       10*s(F) + 20*s(2*F) + 30*s(F);

but much more efficient.

Implementation Notes

This is based on the trivial trigonometric identities:

   cos((n + 1) x) = 2 cos(x) cos(n x) - cos((n - 1) x)
   sin((n + 1) x) = 2 cos(x) sin(n x) - sin((n - 1) x)

Note that the calculation of the cosine/sine parts do not depend on each other, so if you only need the sine part you can do:

   process = os.quadosc(F) : sidebands(vs) : !,_;

and the compiler will discard the half of the calculations.

(os.)sidebands_list

Creates the list of complex harmonics from quad oscillator.

Similar to sidebands but doesn't sum the harmonics, so it is more generic but less convenient for immediate usage.

Usage

   cos(x),sin(x) : sidebands_list(N) : si.bus(2*N)

Where:

  • N : number of harmonics, compile time constant > 1

Example test program

   cos(x),sin(x) : sidebands_list(3)

outputs:

   cos(x),sin(x), cos(2*x),sin(2*x), cos(3*x),sin(3*x);

The following:

   process = os.quadosc(F) : sidebands_list(3)

is (modulo floating point issues) the same as:

   process = os.quadosc(F), os.quadosc(2*F), os.quadosc(3*F);

but much more efficient.
