Description

ATSpartialtap takes a partial number and returns a frequency, amplitude pair. The frequency and amplitude data comes from an ATSbufread opcode.

Syntax

kfrq, kamp ATSpartialtap ipartialnum

Initialization

ipartialnum - indicates the partial that the ATSpartialtap opcode should read from an ATSbufread.

Performance

kfrq - returns the frequency value for the requested partial.

kamp - returns the amplitude value for the requested partial.

ATSpartialtap takes a partial number and returns a frequency, amplitude pair. The frequency and amplitude data comes from an ATSbufread opcode. This is more restricted version of ATSread, since each ATSread opcode has its own independent time pointer, and ATSpartialtap is restricted to the data given by an ATSbufread. Its simplicity is its attractive feature.

Examples

Here is an example of the ATSpartialtap opcode. It uses the file ATSpartialtap.csd.

This example here uses an ATSpartialtap, and an ATSbufread to read partials 5, 20 and 30 from 'beats.ats'. These amplitudes and frequencies could be used to re-synthesize those partials, or something all together different.
