Detailed Description

This is a struct containing all the parameters needed to describe a ring modulation effect.

The ring modulator multiplies an input signal by a carrier signal in the time domain, resulting in tremolo or inharmonic effects.

Member Enumeration Documentation

The shape of the wave if it were viewed on an oscillator.

Enumerator
EMW_Sinusoid	A curved oscillation with smoother transitions at peak frequencies.
EMW_Saw	A curved upward oscillation with a rapid drop at it's peak frequency.
EMW_Square	A digital waveform that only expresses the highest and lowest frequencies. Effectively "on" or "off".

Struct constructor.

Parameters

frequency	This is the frequency of the carrier signal.
highPassCutoff	This controls the cutoff frequency at which the input signal is high-pass filtered before being ring modulated.
waveform	This controls which waveform is used as the carrier signal.

Real Mezzanine::Audio::RingModulatorParameters::Frequency

This is the frequency of the carrier signal.

Remarks: If the carrier signal is slowly varying (less than 20 Hz), the result is a tremolo (slow amplitude variation) effect. If the carrier signal is in the audio range, audible upper and lower sidebands begin to appear, causing an inharmonic effect. The carrier signal itself is not heard in the output.

Range: 0.0 to 8000.0

Definition at line 703 of file effectparameters.h.

Real Mezzanine::Audio::RingModulatorParameters::HighPassCutoff

This controls the cutoff frequency at which the input signal is high-pass filtered before being ring modulated.

Remarks: If the cutoff frequency is 0, the entire signal will be ring modulated. If the cutoff frequency is high, very little of the signal (only those parts above the cutoff) will be ring modulated.

Range: 0.0 to 24000.0

Definition at line 707 of file effectparameters.h.

ModulatorWaveform Mezzanine::Audio::RingModulatorParameters::Waveform

This controls which waveform is used as the carrier signal.

Remarks: Traditional ring modulator and tremolo effects generally use a sinusoidal carrier. Sawtooth and square waveforms are may cause unpleasant aliasing.
