Adding a Source Control to a Track
Each Source Type supported by the Sound Composer has its own Source Control. The Source Control is a required input which is used to generate the sound appropriately.
Choose a Source Control based on the Source Type:
- For a source of type Audio, no source control is required. The sound loaded from the file in the Source tab is used as is.
- For a source of type Harmonics - 1 parameter, the source control is an RPM profile. The RPM profile is the evolution of the RPM in time which will be used for the sound generation, using the dataset already loaded as the Source.
-
For a source of type Harmonics - 2
parameters, a series of source files is used to describe the harmonic
source for the model, with one parameter evolving in the file, and the other
considered to be fixed for a given file.
To set an RPM profile for a harmonics source, follow the steps indicated in Creating a Track with a Harmonics Source.
-
For a source of type Spectrum,
the source control is made of two elements. The first element is the duration of
the sound which will be generated from the spectrum set in the Source. The
second element is the choice of the sound generation method (see Methods for Sound
Creation).
To set a Source Control profile for a Spectrum source, follow the steps indicated in Creating a Track from a Spectrum.
- For a source of type Broadband noise - 1 parameter, the source control is a Control Profile. This profile is the evolution over time of the parameter that is defined by the dataset already loaded as the Source. This profile is then used to generate a sound that follows its evolution in time.
-
For a source of type Broadband noise - 2
parameters, a series of source files is used to describe the broadband
noise source for the model, with one parameter evolving in the file, and the
other considered to be fixed for a given file.
To set a Source Control profile for a Broadband Noise source, follow the steps indicated in Creating a Track from a Broadband Noise Source.
