All Current Processors

All SFPL Processors As Of 27 November 2012

This is constant work in progress - I am working my way down the list as I get chance - and updating as stuff gets added/updated. Please note that some times the descriptions says 'change the volume...' for example. This is just to make reading easier; SFPL has 'immutable' types so it is not possible to change the volume of a signal or trim white space off a string. What actually happens is that a new one is made and the old one left unchanged.

December 2013 - this is quite out of data, I will work on it over the next few days...

• ConvolveDelay
  Mix a signal with a delayed version of its self where the delayed version is actually mixed with the original via convolution via a second convolving signal.
• ConvolveForward
  Convolve one signal with another. Convolution is forwards only (see Convolve).

• PhasedSinWave
  Create a sin wave of a given length and frequency and starting at a given phase.
• ShapedSinWave

• DirectRelength
  Change the length of an audio signal by a fixed ratio via decimation and / or interpolation resulting in a new sample of different length and changing all the frequencies.
• DirectResample
  The same as DirectRelength except the resulting signal is cut or padded with silence to result in it being the same length as the original.
• FrequencyModulate
  Use an shape signal to continuously resample another signal so as to modulate its frequency. This is different from Resample in that the change in frequency is symmetric about zero for the modulating waveform. A positive value of the modulator will increase the frequency of the modulated and a negative modulator value decreases the frequency of the modulated. This method is centre frequency stable for stable modulation frequencies. The centre frequency of the modulate signal will shift if the frequency of the modulator signal shifts overall throughout the modulation period. For complex waveforms, things are more complex.
