partikkelget

Get mask index for a specific mask parameter of a running partikkel instance.

partikkelget is an opcode for outputting partikkel mask index for a specific parameter. Used together with partikkelset, it can be used to synchronize partikkel masking between several running instances of the _ partikkel_ opcode. It can also be used to control other processes based on the internal mask index, for example to create more complex masking patterns than is available with the regular grain masking system.

Syntax

kindex partikkelget kparameterindex, iopcode_id

Initialization

iopcode_id -- the opcode id, linking an instance of partikkel to an instance of partikkelsync.

Performance

kmaskindex -- mask index output. Outputs the current mask index for the parameter specified with kparameterindex in the partikkel instance identified with iopcode_id.

kparameterindex -- mask parameter. Selection of the masking parameter for which to output the current mask index. The different parameters are identified as:

  • 0: gain mask
  • 1: pitch sweep start mask
  • 2: pitch sweep end mask
  • 3: fm modulation index mask
  • 4: channel mask
  • 5: waveform mix mask

Examples

Here is an example of the partikkelget and partikkelset opcodes. It uses the file partikkelgetset.csd.

Example of manipulating the internal mask index of partikkel, based on the value of other mask indices in the same partikkel instance.
