final case class AmpComp(rate: Rate, freq: GE = 261.626f, root: GE = 261.626f, expon: GE = 0.3333f) extends SingleOut with Product with Serializable
A UGen that produces a psychoacoustic amplitude compensation factor for a given frequency.
A UGen that produces a psychoacoustic amplitude compensation factor for a given frequency.
Implements the formula: (root / freq).pow(exp)
Higher frequencies are normally perceived as louder, therefore AmpComp outputs lower values for them. For example, with default parameters, the pitch C4 (frequency 262 Hz) produces the base factor of 1.0, whereas a pitch one octave up, C5 (or 523 Hz) produces a factor of 0.793719 (an attenuation of -2 dB).
An alternative is AmpCompA that better models the bell-shaped equal loudness contours of the hearing system. Especially note that the output of this UGen can become very high for frequencies much lower than the root parameter.
freq
the frequency in Hertz for which to determine the compensation factor
root
the base frequency corresponding to a compensation factor of 1.0
expon
the exponent determines how steep the compensation curve decreases for increasing frequencies. In general, the louder a signal is played, the shallower the equal loudness contours become.

final case class BeatTrack(chain: GE, lock: GE = 0.0f) extends SingleOut with ControlRated with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
An autocorrelation based beat tracker UGen.
An autocorrelation based beat tracker UGen.
The underlying model assumes 4/4, but it should work on any isochronous beat structure, though there are biases to 100-120 bpm; a fast 7/8 may not be tracked in that sense. There are four control-rate outputs, being ticks at quarter, eighth and sixteenth level from the determined beat, and the current detected tempo. Note that the sixteenth note output won't necessarily make much sense if the music being tracked has swing; it is provided just as a convenience.
This beat tracker determines the beat, biased to the mid-tempo range by weighting functions. It does not determine the measure level, only a tactus. It is also slow reacting, using a 6 second temporal window for its autocorrelation maneuvres. Don't expect human musician level predictive tracking.
On the other hand, it is tireless, relatively general (though obviously best at transient 4/4 heavy material without much expressive tempo variation), and can form the basis of computer processing that is decidedly faster than human.
Warning: This UGen only works properly at 44.1 or 48.0 kHz.
chain
the output (buffer) of an FFT UGen which transforms the audio input to track. The expected size of FFT is 1024 for 44100 and 48000 sampling rate, and 2048 for double those. No other sampling rates are supported.
lock
If this argument is greater than 0.5, the tracker will lock at its current periodicity and continue from the current phase. Whilst it updates the model's phase and period, this is not reflected in the output until lock goes back below 0.5. Can be control-rate modulated.
final case class BeatTrack2(bus: GE, numChannels: GE, winSize: GE = 2, phaseSpacing: GE = 0.02f, lock: GE = 0, weighting: GE = -2.1f) extends MultiOut with ControlRated with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A template matching beat tracker UGen.
A template matching beat tracker UGen. This beat tracker is based on exhaustively testing particular template patterns against feature streams; the testing takes place every 0.5 seconds. The two basic templates are a straight (groove=0) and a swung triplet (groove=1) pattern of 16th notes; this pattern is tried out at scaling factors corresponding to the tempi from 60 to 180 bpm. This is the cross-correlation method of beat tracking. A majority vote is taken on the best tempo detected, but this must be confirmed by a consistency check after a phase estimate. Such a consistency check helps to avoid wild fluctuating estimates, but is at the expense of an additional half second delay. The latency of the beat tracker with default settings is thus at least 2.5 seconds; because of block-based amortisation of calculation, it is actually around 2.8 seconds latency for a 2.0 second temporal window.
This beat tracker is designed to be flexible for user needs; you can try out different window sizes, tempo weights and combinations of features. However, there are no guarantees on stability and effectiveness, and you will need to explore such parameters for a particular situation.
The UGen has six outputs corresponding to beat-tick, eighth-tick, groove-tick, tempo, phase, and groove. Warning: it reads from input control bus instead of taking a regular control input signal as its first argument!
bus
index of a control bus to read from. the number of channels of that bus are expected to match the numChannels argument. To track a particular audio signal, analyse it first into numChannels features, that is onset-detection-triggers, as generated by Onsets , and write the trigger-output to this control bus.
numChannels
(scalar) How many features (ie how many control bus channels) are provided (init-time only)
winSize
(scalar) Size of the temporal window desired (2.0 to 3.0 seconds models the human temporal window). You might use longer values for stability of estimate at the expense of reactiveness.
phaseSpacing
(scalar) Relates to how many different phases to test. At the default of 0.02 seconds, 50 different phases spaced by those 0.02 seconds would be tried out for 60bpm; 16 would be trialed for 180 bpm. Larger phaseSpacing means more tests and more CPU cost.
lock
If this argument is greater than 0.5, the tracker will lock at its current periodicity and continue from the current phase. Whilst it updates the model's phase and period, this is not reflected in the output until lock goes back below 0.5. Can be control-rate modulated.
weighting
(scalar) Use (-2.5) for flat weighting of tempi, (-1.5) for compensation weighting based on the number of events tested (because different periods allow different numbers of events within the temporal window). If an integer from 0 upwards is given, this is specifying the id of a buffer containing 120 frames which represent individual tempo weights; tempi go from 60 to 179 bpm in steps of one bpm, so you make sure the buffer has 120 frames.

Warning: if the supplied buf refers to a buffer whose number of channels differs from numChannels , the UGen will fail silently.
An alternative to BufRd is PlayBuf . While PlayBuf plays through the buffer by itself, BufRd only moves its read point by the index input and therefore has no pitch input. PlayBuf uses cubic interpolation, while BufRd has variable interpolation. PlayBuf can determine the end of the buffer and issue a done-action.

final case class ChannelProxy(elem: GE, index: Int) extends GE.Lazy with Product with Serializable
A helper graph element that selects a particular output channel of another element.
A helper graph element that selects a particular output channel of another element. The index is an Integer and thus cannot be determined at graph expansion time. If this is desired, the Select UGen can be used.
Usually the graph element operator \ (backlash) can be used instead of explicitly writing ChannelProxy. Thus elem \ index is equivalent to ChannelProxy(elem, index). UGens with a fixed number of outputs often have auxiliary methods to access the channels in meaningful way, e.g. Pitch has method freq and hasFreq, which are equivalent to pitch \ 0 and pitch \ 1.
Because ScalaCollider allows late-expanding graph elements, we have no direct way to get some array of a UGen's outputs.
Examples
```
// frequency of a pitch estimator
play {
  val sin = SinOsc.ar(MouseX.kr(10, 10000, warp = 1))
  val pch = Pitch.kr(sin)
  val freq = pch \ 0  // same as pch.freq
  freq.poll(label = "freq")

final case class ChannelRangeProxy(elem: GE, from: Int, until: Int, step: Int) extends GE.Lazy with Product with Serializable
A helper graph element that selects a particular range of output channel of another element.
A helper graph element that selects a particular range of output channel of another element. The range is specified with integers and thus cannot be determined at graph expansion time. If this is desired, the Select UGen can be used.
Usually the graph element operator out along with a standard Scala Range argument can be used instead of explicitly writing ChannelRangeProxy. Thus elem out (0 until 4) selects the first four channels and is equivalent to ChannelRangeProxy(elem, from = 0, until = 4, step = 1).
Behind the scene, ChannelProxy instances are created, thus ChannelRangeProxy(x, a, b) is the same as (a until b).map(ChannelProxy(x, _)): GE.
Because ScalaCollider allows late-expanding graph elements, we have no direct way to get some array of a UGen's outputs.
elem
a multi-channel element from which to select channels.
from
the first index (inclusive) of the channel range, counting from zero.
until
the end index (exclusive) of the channel range, counting from zero.
step
the increment from index to index in the range. A value of one means all channels from from until until will be selected. A value of two means, every second channel will be skipped. A negative value can be used to count down from high to low indices.

ctrl
The signal whose amplitude controls the processor. Often the same as in, but one may wish to apply equalization or delay to it to change the compressor character (side-chaining), or even feed a completely different signal, for instance in a ducking application.
thresh
Control signal amplitude threshold, which determines the break point between slopeBelow and slopeAbove. Usually 0..1. The control signal amplitude is calculated using RMS.
ratioBelow
Slope of the amplitude curve below the threshold. If this slope > 1.0, the amplitude will drop off more quickly the softer the control signal gets; when the control signal is close to 0 amplitude, the output should be exactly zero -- hence, noise gating. Values < 1.0 are possible, but it means that a very low-level control signal will cause the input signal to be amplified, which would raise the noise floor.
ratioAbove
Slope of the amplitude curve above the threshold. Values < 1.0 achieve compression (louder signals are attenuated); > 1.0, you get expansion (louder signals are made even louder). For 3:1 compression, you would use a value of 1/3 here.
attack
The amount of time it takes for the amplitude adjustment to kick in fully. This is usually pretty small, not much more than 10 milliseconds (the default value). I often set it as low as 2 milliseconds (0.002).
release
The amount of time for the amplitude adjustment to be released. Usually a bit longer than attack; if both times are too short, you can get some (possibly unwanted) artifacts.

Demand rate UGen implementing a Wiard noise ring.
"In latter model synthesizers, digital noise sources began to appear in place of analog ones. Traditionally, a pseudo-random shift register set up for optimal length. By optimal length, it is meant that every state of all available bits will appear at some time, but the order is unknown. Essentially a counter that counts in an unknown order. This represents the maximum state of information "entropy" available for that number of bits. But music has close self-similarity over short periods of time. That is, it repeats itself with changes appearing slowly. This shift register generator is designed to give control of the rate of appearance of new information. It has a tight set of controls over how random it actually is and how fast change occurs." (source: http://mamonu.weebly.com/wiard-noisering.html)

final case class Decay(rate: MaybeRate, in: GE, time: GE = 1.0f) extends SingleOut with Product with Serializable
An integrator UGen with exponential decay of past values.
An integrator UGen with exponential decay of past values. This is essentially the same as Integrator except that instead of supplying the coefficient directly, it is calculated from a 60 dB decay time. This is the time required for the integrator to lose 99.9 % of its value or -60dB.

final case class Demand(rate: MaybeRate, trig: GE, in: GE, reset: GE = 0) extends MultiOut with HasDoneFlag with Product with Serializable
A UGen which polls results from demand-rate ugens when receiving a trigger.
A UGen which polls results from demand-rate ugens when receiving a trigger. When there is a trigger at the trig input, a value is demanded from each ugen in the in input and output. The unit generators in the list should be demand-rate. When there is a trigger at the reset input, the demand rate ugens in the list are reset.
Note: By design, a reset trigger only resets the demand ugens; it does not reset the value at Demand's output. Demand continues to hold its value until the next value is demanded, at which point its output value will be the first expected item in the in argument.
Note: One demand-rate ugen represents a single stream of values, so that embedding the same ugen twice calls this stream twice per demand, possibly yielding different values. To embed the same sequence twice, either make sure the ugen is demanded only once, or create two instances of the ugen.
Warning: Demand currently seems to have problems with infinite sequences. As a workaround use a very large length instead. E.g. instead of Dbrown(0, 1, inf) use Dbrown(0, 1, 0xFFFFFFFF) !
Warning: Demand seems to have a problem with initial triggers. For example Demand.kr(Impulse.kr(0), 1) will have a spurious zero value output first.

final case class DetectSilence(rate: MaybeRate, in: GE, amp: GE = 1.0E-4f, dur: GE = 0.1f, doneAction: GE = doNothing) extends SingleOut with HasSideEffect with Product with Serializable
A UGen which detects whether its input signal falls below a given amplitude for a given amount of time (becoming "silent").
A UGen which detects whether its input signal falls below a given amplitude for a given amount of time (becoming "silent"). A silence is detected if the absolute sample values of the input remain less than or equal to the amp threshold for a consecutive amount of time given by the dur argument.
A value of 1 is output when this condition is met, and a value of 0 is output when the condition is not met (i.e. at least one sample occurs in the input whose absolute value is greater than amp ). Besides, when the output changes from zero to one, the doneAction is executed (unless it is doNothing ).
A special case is the initial condition of the UGen: It will begin with an output value of 0 (no silence detected), even if the input signal is below the amplitude threshold. It is only after the first input sample rising above the threshold that the actual monitoring begins and a trigger of 1 or the firing of the done-action may occur.

An envelope generator UGen.
An envelope generator UGen. It uses a break point description in its envelope input, typically coming from an Env object. The envelope may be re-triggered using the gate input. Upon start and upon re-triggering, the envelope , levelScale , levelBias and timeScale parameters are polled and remain constant for the duration of the envelope.
To construct a manual envelope without the use of the Env class, the format should be as follows:
```
val env = Seq[GE](startLevel, numSegments, releaseNode, loopNode,
targetLevel1, duration1, curveType1, curvature1,
targetLevel2, duration2, curveType2, curvature2,
...)
```
Where the curve-type is one of Curve.step.id , Curve.lin.id , Curve.exp.id , etc. The curvature values are only relevant for the parametric curve type. The releaseNode and loopNode parameters are segment indices or the special value -99 indicating that there are no release or loop segments.
Note: The actual minimum duration of a segment is not zero, but one sample step for audio rate and one block for control rate. This may result in asynchronicity when in two envelopes of different number of levels, the envelope times add up to the same total duration. Similarly, when modulating times, the new time is only updated at the end of the current segment; this may lead to asynchronicity of two envelopes with modulated times.
envelope
the description of the envelope break-points. Typically you pass an instance of Env which will then automatically expand to the correct format.
gate
triggers the envelope and holds it open while greater than zero. If the envelope is of fixed duration (e.g. Env.linen , Env.perc ), the gate argument is used as a simple trigger. If it contains a sustained segment (e.g. Env.adsr , Env.asr ), the envelope is held open until the gate becomes 0, at which point is released. If gate is less than zero, a release is enforced with duration -1.0 - gate .
levelScale
amplitude factor with which the nominal envelope is multiplied.
levelBias
amplitude offset which is added to the nominal envelope.
timeScale
time scale factor with which the envelope segment durations are multiplied.

final case class FFT(buf: GE, in: GE, hop: GE = 0.5f, winType: GE = 0, active: GE = 1, winSize: GE = 0) extends SingleOut with ControlRated with HasSideEffect with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen performing short-time forward fourier transformations.
A UGen performing short-time forward fourier transformations. In order to properly link the spectral ugens ( PV_... ), you should begin by using the output of each UGen (which is just the fft buffer identifier), and use that as buffer input of the next UGen. That way, the UGen graph is correctly sorted. E.g. IFFT(PV_...(FFT(buf, in))) .
The UGen will initially output zero until the first FFT can be performed. This is the case after hop * fftSize . Thus for a default fft buffer size of 1024 and a hop of 0.5, and for a default control block size of 64, for the first 1024*0.5/64 = 8 control blocks the UGen will output zero. This also implies that the first FFT in this case if performed on the first 512 samples of the in signal (prepended by 512 zeros). In other words, the first 'full' FFT of the input happens after fftSize/controlBlockSize cycles, no matter what hop size was chosen.
If you use FFT for performing signal analysis and not phase vocoder effects, make sure you change the window type accordingly.
buf
The buffer to use for writing the FFT to. The size must be a power of two. Since FFT operates at control rate (also being a power of two), the buffer should probably be at least as long as the control block size. (init-time only)
in
The time domain signal to be transformed into the spectral domain.
hop
A factor determining the step size between successive FFTs. That is, FFTs are performed every fftSize * hop sample frames. The default of 0.5 means thus a 50% overlap, while a hope of 1.0 means no overlapping. Choosing 0.0 will most likely crash the server! (init-time only)
winType
The window function applied before each FFT is taken. The default of 0 is a sine window which is good for phase vocoder applications (using the PV_... UGens). For analysis applications, you may want to use -1 which is a rectangle window (effectively no windowing) or 1 which is a Hann window. A Hann window gives perfect overlap-add reconstruction for a hope size of 0.5 (or 0.25 etc.) (init-time only)
active
This parameter can be temporarily set to <= 0 to pause the FFT operation.
winSize
With the default value of zero, the window size equals the fft size. If you wish to perform zero padding, an explicit window size can be specified. (init-time only)

A sine oscillator UGen using a fast approximation. It uses a ringing filter and is less CPU expensive than SinOsc . However, the amplitude of the wave will vary with frequency. Generally the amplitude will go down when the frequency rises and it will go up as if the frequency is lowered.
Warning: In the current implementation, the amplitude can blow up if the frequency is modulated by certain alternating signals (e.g. abruptly by TRand ).

final case class Fold(rate: Rate, in: GE, lo: GE = 0.0f, hi: GE = 1.0f) extends SingleOut with Product with Serializable
A UGen that constrains a signal to a given range, by "folding" values outside the range.
A UGen that constrains a signal to a given range, by "folding" values outside the range. This is similar to the fold2 binary operator but permits both a lower range value lo and an upper range value hi .
Folding can be understood as "reflecting" around the boundaries. For example, if the upper margin is 3, then if an input value exceeds 3, the excess is negatively reflected; 3.1 becomes 2.9, 3.2 becomes 2.8, etc. until the lower margin is reached again where another reflection occurs. Likewise, if the lower margin is 1, then if an input value falls below 1, the undershoot is reflected; 0.9 becomes 1.1, 0.8 becomes 1.2, etc. until the upper margin is reached again where another reflection occurs.

final case class FoldIndex(rate: Rate, buf: GE, in: GE = 0) extends SingleOut with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen which reads a single sample value from a buffer at a given index.
A UGen which reads a single sample value from a buffer at a given index.
It uses the in argument as index into the buffer, truncating that argument to an integer. Out-of-range index values are "folded" inside the valid range. Folding means reflecting the excess at the valid range's boundaries.
For example, if the buffer has four samples, index 4 is wrapped to index 2 (the excess beyond the maximum index of 3 is 4 - 3 = 1, and the excess is folded so that and 3 - 1 = 2), index 5 is folded to index 1, index -1 is folded to index 1, index -2 is folded to index 2, etc.
While designed for monophonic buffers, it works with multi-channel buffers by treating them as de-interleaved. See the Index UGen for details.

final case class Formlet(rate: MaybeRate, in: GE, freq: GE = 440.0f, attack: GE = 1.0f, decay: GE = 1.0f) extends SingleOut with Product with Serializable
A FOF-like resonant filter UGen.
A FOF-like resonant filter UGen. Its impulse response is like that of a sine wave with a Decay2 envelope over it. It is possible to control the attack and decay times.
Formlet is equivalent to:
```
Ringz(in, freq, decay) - Ringz(in, freq, attack)
```
The great advantage to this filter over FOF (Fonction d'onde formantique) is that there is no limit to the number of overlapping grains since the grain is just the impulse response of the filter.
Note: Ringz and derived UGens Klank and Formlet produce output RMS depending on the server's sampling rate. This is to achieve the same amplitude for single-sample impulse inputs.

final case class In(rate: Rate, bus: GE, numChannels: Int = 1) extends MultiOut with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen that reads a signal from a bus.
A UGen that reads a signal from a bus. Whether an audio- or control-bus is used depends on the rate of the UGen.
In.ar and In.kr behave differently with respect to signals left on the bus in the previous calculation cycle (control block): In.ar can access audio signals that were generated in the current calculation cycle by synths appearing earlier in the node tree. It does not read signals produced by nodes in the previous calculation cycle (i.e. synths appearing later in the node tree), the input would instead be zero. To allow such "feedback", InFeedback can be used.
In contrast, In.kr does not distinguish between "new" and "old" data: It will always read the most recent value found on the bus, whether it was generated earlier in this calculation cycle, left over from the last one, or set before by the client.
Note: The server uses the first NumOutputBuses channels to write to the sound card, followed by another NumInputBuses to read from the sound card. For convenience, the pseudo-UGens PhysicalOut and PhysicalIn can be used.

final case class InFeedback(bus: GE, numChannels: Int = 1) extends MultiOut with AudioRated with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen which reads a signal from an audio bus with a current or one cycle old timestamp.
A UGen which reads a signal from an audio bus with a current or one cycle old timestamp.
Audio buses adhere to the concept of a cycle timestamp, which increases for each audio block calculated. When the various output ugens ( Out , OffsetOut , XOut ) write data to a bus, they mix it with any data from the current cycle, but overwrite any data from the previous cycle. ( ReplaceOut overwrites all data regardless.) Thus depending on node order and what synths are writing to the bus, the data on a given bus may be from the current cycle or be one cycle old at the time of reading.
In.ar checks the timestamp of any data it reads in and zeros any data from the previous cycle (for use within that node; the data remains on the bus). This is fine for audio data, as it avoids feedback, but for control data it is useful to be able to read data from any place in the node order. For this reason In.kr also reads data that is older than the current cycle.
In some cases one might also want to read audio from a node later in the current node order. This can be achieved with InFeedback . It reads from the previous cycle, and hence introduces a delay of one block size, which by default is 64 sample frames (equal to about 1.45 ms at 44.1 kHz sample rate).
Note that no delay occurs when the bus contains a signal which has been written already in the current cycle. The delay is only introduced when no present signal exists.
bus
the index of the audio bus to read in from.
numChannels
the number of channels (i.e. adjacent buses) to read in. Since this is a constant, a change in number of channels of the underlying bus must be reflected by creating different SynthDefs.

Any time the bus is "touched" i.e. has its value set (using "/c_set" etc.), a single impulse trigger will be generated. Its amplitude is the value that the bus was set to.

final case class Index(rate: Rate, buf: GE, in: GE = 0) extends SingleOut with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen which reads a single sample value from a buffer at a given index.
A UGen which reads a single sample value from a buffer at a given index.
It uses the in argument as index into the buffer, truncating that argument to an integer. Out-of-range index values are clipped to the valid range.
While designed for monophonic buffers, it works with multi-channel buffers by treating them as de-interleaved. For example, if the buffer has two frames and two channels, index 0 corresponds to frame 0, channel 0, index 1 correspond to frame 0, channel 1, index 2 corresponds to frame 1, channel 0, and index 3 corresponds to frame 1, channel 1.

final case class IndexInBetween(rate: Rate, buf: GE, in: GE) extends SingleOut with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen which determines the (lowest) index in a buffer at which the two neighboring values contain a given input signal.
A UGen which determines the (lowest) index in a buffer at which the two neighboring values contain a given input signal. The output index is a decimal whose fractional part is suitable for linearly interpolating between the buffer slot values.
For example, if the Buffer contains values 3, 21, 25, 26 and the input signal has the value 22, then the output will be 1.25, because the value 22 is in-between the values stored at indices 1 and 2 and the linear location of 22 is one-quarter of the way along the interval between them: 21 * (1 - 0.25) + 25 * (1 - 0.75) = 22.
If the input value is smaller than the first sample, the output will be zero. If the input value is larger than any sample in the buffer, the output will be the buffer size minus one.
While designed for monophonic buffers, it works with multi-channel buffers by treating them as de-interleaved. For example, if the buffer has two frames and two channels, and the algorithm finds the frame 1 in channel 0, the reported index is 2 (frame * numChannels + channel).
IndexInBetween is the complement of the IndexL UGen.

The current control input value is always reached in at the beginning of the subsequent control block.

For example, if the block size is 64, and the first three input values are -0.5, 0.6, 0.3, then the output signal will be 65 samples of value -0.5, followed by a linear ramp of 64 samples towards 0.6, followed by a linear ramp of 64 samples to towards 0.3.

initial phase offset in cycles ( 0..1 ). If you think of a buffer of one cycle of the waveform, this is the starting offset into this buffer.

If you prefer to specify the perceived delay instead, you could use an iphase of -0.25 + 1 which is more intuitive. Note that the phase is not automatically wrapped into the range of 0..1 , so putting an iphase of -0.25 currently results in a strange initial signal which only stabilizes to the correct behaviour after one period!

A UGen for the extraction of instantaneous loudness.
A UGen for the extraction of instantaneous loudness. A perceptual loudness function which outputs loudness in sones; this is a variant of an MP3 perceptual model, summing excitation in ERB bands. It models simple spectral and temporal masking, with equal loudness contour correction in ERB bands to obtain phons (relative dB), then a phon to sone transform. The final output is typically in the range of 0 to 64 sones, though higher values can occur with specific synthesised stimuli.
Note that despite running at control-rate, the output remains constant for each FFT frame. E.g. with an FFT size of 1024 and 50% overlap, a new measure is generated every 512 audio frames, or (at control block size 64) every 8 control blocks.
Warning: the UGen is broken if FFT sizes other than the ones specified for chain are used.

final case class MFCC(chain: GE, numCoeffs: Int = 13) extends MultiOut with ControlRated with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen for extracting mel frequency cepstral coefficients.
A UGen for extracting mel frequency cepstral coefficients. It generates a set of MFCCs; these are obtained from a band-based frequency representation (using the Mel scale by default), and then a discrete cosine transform (DCT). The DCT is an efficient approximation for principal components analysis, so that it allows a compression, or reduction of dimensionality, of the data, in this case reducing 42 band readings to a smaller set of MFCCs. A small number of features (the coefficients) end up describing the spectrum. The MFCCs are commonly used as timbral descriptors.
The output values are somewhat normalised for the range 0.0 to 1.0, but there are no guarantees on exact conformance to this. Commonly, the first coefficient will be the highest value. The number of output channels corresponds to the number of coefficients specified. Technical note: The 0th coefficient is not generated as it consists of multiplying all bands by 1 and summing
Note that despite running at control-rate, the output remains constant for each FFT frame. E.g. with an FFT size of 1024 and 50% overlap, a new measure is generated every 512 audio frames, or (at control block size 64) every 8 control blocks.

the output (buffer) of an FFT UGen which transforms the audio input to track. For the FFT chain, with a standard hop of half FFT size, the FFT size should be 1024 at 44.1 or 48 kHz and 2048 at 88.2 or 96 kHz sampling rate.
numCoeffs
the number of coefficients, defaults to 13, maximum of 42; more efficient to use less of course! Since this number determines the number of output channels of the UGen, it has to be an Int .

final case class Mix(elem: GE) extends SingleOut with Product with Serializable
A graph element that mixes the channels of a signal together.
A graph element that mixes the channels of a signal together. It works like the sclang counterpart.
The Mix companion object contains various useful mixing idioms:
- Mix.tabulate(n: Int)(fun: Int => GE): corresponds to Seq.tabulate and to Array.fill in sclang. - Mix.fill(n: Int)(thunk: => GE): corresponds to Seq.fill. - Mix.seq(elems: GE*): A shortcut for Mix(GESeq(elems: _*)).
A separate graph element is Mix.mono. Mix.mono(elem: GE) flattens all channels of the input element before summing them, guaranteeing that the result is monophonic.
Finally, Mix.fold is an idiom that not actually adds elements, but recursively folds them. Thus, Mix.fold(elem: GE, n: Int)(fun: GE => GE) is equivalent to
```
(1 to n).foldLeft(elem) { (res, _) => fun(res) }
```
Mix.fold is often used in the SuperCollider examples to apply a filtering process such as reverberation several times. For cases where the iteration index is needed, the full form as shown above can be used instead.
elem

A graph element that produces an integer with number-of-channels of the input element.
Because ScalaCollider allows late-expanding graph elements, we have no direct way to get an integer of some array-size of a UGen's outputs. On the other hand, there may be sound synthesis definitions that can abstract over the number of channels at definition time.

final case class OffsetOut(bus: GE, in: GE) extends ZeroOut with AudioRated with HasSideEffect with IsIndividual with Product with Serializable
A UGen that writes a signal onto a bus, delaying the signal such that the input will begin to appear on the bus precisely when the encompassing Synth was scheduled according to its OSC bundle.
A UGen that writes a signal onto a bus, delaying the signal such that the input will begin to appear on the bus precisely when the encompassing Synth was scheduled according to its OSC bundle. I.e. if the synth is scheduled to be started part way through a control cycle, OffsetOut will maintain the correct offset by buffering the output and delaying it until the exact time that the synth was scheduled for.
This UGen adds ("mixes") the input-signal to the existing contents of the bus.
Multi-channel input signals, for example a PanAz , are written as such to the bus without expansion. That is, the bus index argument is used for the first channel, the second channel will appear on bus + 1 , etc.
If you have an expanding multi-channel input, however, you have to be careful. For example, if you have PanAz.ar(2, SinOsc.ar(Seq(444, 555, 666)) * 0.2, Seq(-1, 0, 1)) , this results in one output UGen carrying one channel, and another one carrying two channels. (The way this works is consistent with SCLang). In order to get the correct behaviour (left outputs of the PanAz summed, and right output of the PanAz summed), wrap this expression in a Mix(...) before passing it to the output UGen.
Note: You cannot currently achieve sample accurate scheduling in SuperCollider. This UGen is therefore more or less useless.

An onset detecting UGen for musical audio signals.
An onset detecting UGen for musical audio signals. It detects the beginning of notes/drumbeats/etc. Outputs a control-rate trigger signal which is 1 when an onset is detected, and 0 otherwise.
The onset detection should work well for a general range of monophonic and polyphonic audio signals. The onset detection is purely based on signal analysis and does not make use of any "top-down" inferences such as tempo.
There are different functions available for the analysis:
- 0 "power" -- generally OK, good for percussive input, and also very efficient - 1 "magsum" -- generally OK, good for percussive input, and also very efficient - 2 "complex" -- performs generally very well, but more CPU-intensive - 3 "rcomplex" (default) -- performs generally very well, and slightly more efficient than "complex" - 4 "phase" -- generally good, especially for tonal input, medium efficiency - 5 "wphase" -- generally very good, especially for tonal input, medium efficiency - 6 "mkl" -- generally very good, medium efficiency, pretty different from the other methods
The differences aren't large, so it is recommended you stick with the default "rcomplex" unless you find specific problems with it. Then maybe try "wphase". The "mkl" type is a bit different from the others so maybe try that too. They all have slightly different characteristics, and in tests perform at a similar quality level.
chain
the output (buffer) of an FFT UGen which transforms the audio input to track. For the FFT chain, you should typically use a frame size of 512 or 1024 (at 44.1 kHz sampling rate) and 50% hop size (which is the default setting in SC). For different sampling rates choose an FFT size to cover a similar time-span (around 10 to 20 ms).
thresh
the detection threshold, typically between 0 and 1, although in rare cases you may find values outside this range useful
fun
index of a function to be used to analyse the signal. See main paragraph for possible values (usually can be left to default).
decay
(advanced setting) Specifies the time (in seconds) for the normalisation to "forget" about a recent onset. If you find too much re-triggering (e.g. as a note dies away unevenly) then you might wish to increase this value. Not used with "mkl".
noiseFloor
(advanced setting) This is a lower limit, connected to the idea of how quiet the sound is expected to get without becoming indistinguishable from noise. For some cleanly-recorded classical music with wide dynamic variations, it was found helpful to go down as far as 1e-6. Not used with "mkl".
minGap
(advanced setting) Specifies a minimum gap (in FFT frames) between onset detections, a brute-force way to prevent too many doubled detections.
medianSpan
(advanced setting) Specifies the size (in FFT frames) of the median window used for smoothing the detection function before triggering.
whType

raw
