chubby - Chebychev Polynomial function generator for cmusic gen 0 chubby fN DC A1 A2 A3... AN chubby is a gen function for cmusic(1carl). It is useful in generating functions for "waveshaping", or nonlinear distor- tion techniques. The arguments specify the amplitude of each of the partials of the Chebychev polynomial function according to: Tn+1(x) = 2xTn(x) - Tn-1(x) where Tn(0) = 0 Hz component, Tn(1) = fundamental, Tn(2) = first harmonic, etc. Here is an example that produces 50% fundamental and 50% third harmonic: gen 0 chubby f0 0 .5 0 .5; For more information say % man chubby Author: Gareth Loy Note: Whether the function returned by chubby is normalized to the signed unit interval depends on the sum of its arguments being 1.0. It is customary to renormalize chubby functions with gen0.
