pvsftr — Reads amplitude and/or frequency data from function tables.
ifna -- A table, at least inbins in size, that stores amplitude data. Ignored if ifna = 0
ifnf (optional) -- A table, at least inbins in size, that stores frequency data. Ignored if ifnf = 0
fsrc -- a PVOC-EX formatted source.
Enables the contents of fsrc to be exchanged with function tables for custom processing. Except when the frame overlap equals ksmps (which will generally not be the case), the frame data is not updated each control period. The data in ifna, ifnf should only be processed when kflag is set to 1. To process only frequency data, set ifna to zero.
As the function tables are required only to store data from fsrc, there is no advantage in defining then in the score, and they should generally be created in the instrument, using ftgen.
By exporting amplitude data, say, from one fsig and importing it into another, basic cross-synthesis (as in pvscross) can be performed, with the option to modify the data beforehand using the table manipulation opodes.
Note that the format data in the source fsig is not written to the tables. This therefore offers a means of transferring amplitude and frequency data between non-identical fsigs. Used this way, these opcodes become potentially pathological, and can be relied upon to produce unexpected results. In such cases, resynthesis using pvsadsyn would almost certainly be required.
To perform a straight copy from one fsig to another one of identical format, the conventional assignment syntax can be used:
fsig1 = fsig2
It is not necessary to use function tables in this case.
Here is an example of the pvsftr opcode. It uses the file pvsftr.csd.
