FM madness with TONE


YouTube via JCRUDESS | Feb 24, 2011 |

"This is Tone, a tone generator for the iPad. It's not really meant to be a musical instrument, but it is pretty cool for generating cool sounds.
It's sonic madness so if you are faint of heart please go listen to a mellow piano improv of mine!"

Tone is currently free:
TONE: The Ultimate Tone Generator - Zombies & Robots
iPads on eBay
iPod Touch on eBay

"TONE plays sine waves with frequencies from 7 Hz to 10,000 Hz. TONE also plays sawtooth, triangle and square waves based on additive formulas. These formulas only generate the lower harmonics of the real waves. The last waveform is called FM and involves a carrier and a modulator.

Using the waveform marked "FM", some new controls and displays will appear. The slider below FM Index will adjust the amount that the modulator modulates the sine wave carrier. A higher index will produce a brighter or harsher tone."
