// ************************************ // Frequency Modulation (GUI) // Patch 2 - FM with Modulation Index // Bruno Ruviaro, 2013-08-03 // ************************************ /* Another interface to experiment with frequency modulation, now using Modulation Index. The Modulation Index is arguably a more musical way to control FM. This index I is defined as: I = D/M Modulation Index (I) is the ratio of Frequency Deviation (D) to Modulation Frequency (M). Index is zero = no modulation. Index is small = little audible FM. Index gets higher = the more complex the spectrum. Select all (ctrl + A), then evaluate (ctrl + period). Watch the spectrum on the Frequency Analyzer window. */ s.waitForBoot({ var win, carrFreqKnob, carrFreqNumber, carrFreqLabel, modFreqKnob, modFreqNumber, modFreqLabel, freqDevKnob, freqDevNumber, freqDevLabel, modIndexKnob, modIndexNumber, modIndexLabel, volumeSlider, defaultFont, defaultColor, defaultAlpha, defaultStringColor, carrSpec, modSpec, devSpec, indexSpec, synth;
