PartialTable

class PartialTable(list=[(1, 1), (1.33, 0.5), (1.67, 0.3)], size=65536)[source]

Inharmonic waveform generator.

Generates waveforms made of inharmonic components. Partials are given as a list of 2-values tuple, where the first one is the partial number (can be float) and the second one is the strength of the partial.

The object uses the first two decimal values of each partial to compute a higher harmonic at a multiple of 100 (so each component is in reality truly harmonic). If the oscillator has a frequency divided by 100, the real desired partials will be restituted.

The list:

[(1, 1), (1.1, 0.7), (1.15, 0.5)] will draw a table with:

harmonic 100: amplitude = 1 harmonic 110: amplitude = 0.7 harmonic 115: amplitude = 0.5

To listen to a signal composed of 200, 220 and 230 Hz, one should declared an oscillator like this (frequency of 200Hz divided by 100):

a = Osc(t, freq=2, mul=0.5).out()

Parent

PyoTableObject

Args
list: list of tuple, optional

List of 2-values tuples. First value is the partial number (float up to two decimal values) and second value is its amplitude (relative to the other harmonics). Defaults to [(1,1), (1.33,0.5),(1.67,0.3)].

size: int, optional

Table size in samples. Because computed harmonics are very high in frequency, the table size must be bigger than a classic HarmTable. Defaults to 65536.

>>> s = Server().boot()
>>> s.start()
>>> t = PartialTable([(1,1), (2.37, 0.5), (4.55, 0.3)]).normalize()
>>> # Play with fundamentals 199 and 200 Hz

PadSynthTable

class PadSynthTable(basefreq=440, spread=1, bw=50, bwscl=1, nharms=64, damp=0.7, size=262144)[source]

Generates wavetable with the PadSynth algorithm from Nasca Octavian Paul.

This object generates a wavetable with the PadSynth algorithm describe here:

http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net/doc/PADsynth/PADsynth.htm

This algorithm generates some large wavetables that can be played at different speeds to get the desired sound. This algorithm describes only how these wavetables are generated. The result is a perfectly looped wavetable.

To get the desired pitch from the table, the playback speed must be sr / table size. This speed can be transposed to obtain different pitches from a single wavetable.

Parent

PyoTableObject

Args
basefreq: float, optional

The base frequency of the algorithm in Hz. If the spreading factor is near 1.0, this frequency is the fundamental of the spectrum. Defaults to 440.

spread: float, optional

The spreading factor for the harmonics. Each harmonic real frequency is computed as basefreq * pow(n, spread) where n is the harmonic order. Defaults to 1.

bw: float, optional

The bandwidth of the first harmonic in cents. The bandwidth allows to control the harmonic profile using a gaussian distribution (bell shape). Defaults to 50.

bwscl: float, optional

The bandswidth scale specifies how much the bandwidth of the harmonic increase according to its frequency. Defaults to 1.

nharms: int, optional

The number of harmonics in the generated wavetable. Higher numbers of harmonics take more time to generate the wavetable. Defaults to 64.

damp: float, optional

The amplitude damping factor specifies how much the amplitude of the harmonic decrease according to its order. It uses a simple power serie, amp = pow(damp, n) where n is the harmonic order. Defaults to 0.7.

size: int, optional

Table size in samples. Must be a power-of-two, usually a big one! Defaults to 262144.

Note

Many thanks to Nasca Octavian Paul for making this beautiful algorithm and releasing it under Public Domain.
