Description

Plugin opcode in scugens.

Exponential lag with 60dB lag time. Port of Supercollider's Lag. This is essentially a one pole filter except that instead of supplying the coefficient directly, it is calculated from a 60 dB lag time. This is the time required for the filter to converge to within 0.01% of a value. This is useful for smoothing out control signals.

Syntax

aout lag ain, klagtime [, initialvalue]

kout lag kin, klagtime [, initialvalue]

Initialization

initialvalue If given, sets the internal state. It defaults to the first value passed

Performance

ain -- input signal

klagtime -- 60 dB lag time in seconds.

kladown -- 60 dB lag time in seconds for the downgoing signal.

Examples

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

  ; smooth an audio signal
  kmidi = floor(line(60, p3, 72)/2)*2

  afreqsmooth = lag(afreq, 1)
  a1 = oscili(1, afreq)
  a2 = oscili(1, afreqsmooth)
