Re: Interpolating scanners and barberpoles?

2004-03-30 by youdono2001

As I understand it, yes to the interpolating scanner and quadrature 
function generator.  I suppose if one had a couple of PSIM's, one 
could do a Shepard Function Generator and get a barberpole response 
out of them.

The interpolating scanner idea's a particularly good one - that 
hadn't crossed my mind.  An extension of the idea would be an 'ideal 
diode' function, with shapable center, width and height, controlled 
by the CV in's.

Another useful idea would be to program three mixed tri-phase outputs 
(three outputs where each output is the product of two mixed phases 
from two separate tri-phase generators) - this would be very handy in 
patching ensemble choruses from three separate delay units, or for 
just giving a very nice shimmer to three VCO's - movement with no 
perceivable pattern to the movement.


Cheers,
Scot
