Music 171 homework 1
This assignment is to make a Pd patch that produces two sine waves. They
should be tuned a musical fourth apart (tempered or perfect fourths are OK),
for instance at 220 and 293-1/3 Hz. Use another low-frequency sinusoid to
control their amplitudes so that, together, the two pitches fade in and out
once every second.
Your successful patch should sound like
this. It should not sound like
this .
For extra credit, see if you can make the two sinusoids fade in and out in
turns, so that the second one is loudest just when the first one is faded out,
and vice versa, so that it sounds like
this.
