Hey everyone,
Thanks for the direction with the sndbuf question Inventor.
I have been putting in the hours and worked the problem out trial and error.
Recently I have been trying to get the ADSR or Envelope to function as a modulation source for lfo amt but despite reading the manual and looking on the web am still having no luck.
Is there a way to access the env level in a similar way to using lfo.last()
when reading a lfo level?

Hi Frank,

Theoretically you can use .last() function for all UGen.
I use ADSR to control filters frequency. So it should work for modulation too.

If you want your ADSR to output values don't forget put an input into it.
Like this:

Code:

Step target_freq =>ADSR vcf_adsr => vcf.freq_ctrl;
target_freq.next(59.0);
vcf_adsr.set(50::ms, 0::ms, 1, 100::ms);


Don't hesitate to send the piece of code that doesn't work on your side.

Ju

Appreciate the guidance, I think I was omitting the ADSR input as you suggested.I am painfully aware that my training wheels will be on for a while with ChucK but am putting in serious hours and making some headway.
Thanks again frankie_d.

I can't find a UGen that has a freq_ctrl property. How do you do frequency modulation on a filter? (am noob.)

Hi flies,

I didn't find it too. But I think there is no way to perform it directly.
I created a class using the freq() function of the filter and udating it each sample to change cutoff frequency.

Code:


public class lpf_vcf_light {
    Gain in;
    Gain out;

    LPF lpf_filter_u;
    lpf_filter_u.freq(300);

    fun UGen connect(UGen @ u)
    {
        int i;
       
        u => in => lpf_filter_u => out;
       
        return out;
    }

   fun void update_freq(UGen @ freq_in) {
   
      while (1) {
         Std.mtof(freq_in.last()) => lpf_filter_u.freq;

           if (lpf_filter_u.freq() <1> now;
      }
   }
   
   fun void update_Q(UGen @ Q_in) {
   
      while (1) {
         Q_in.last()/24 => lpf_filter_u.Q;
         
         1::samp => now;
      }
   }
   
   fun void freq_ctrl (UGen @ freq_in) {
      freq_in => blackhole;
      spork ~ update_freq(freq_in);
   }
   
   fun void Q_ctrl (UGen @ Q_in) {
      Q_in => blackhole;
      spork ~ update_Q(Q_in);
   }
   
   
}

/* Examlpe, please comment when used as public class */
lpf_vcf_light vcf;

SqrOsc s => vcf.connect => dac;
s.gain(0.3);

Phasor p => vcf.freq_ctrl;
p.gain(127);
p.freq(0.5);


Phasor p2 => vcf.Q_ctrl;
p2.gain(127);
p2.freq(0.1);

while(1) {1::ms => now; <<<vcf>>>;}
