Phasor~ - Signal Ramps and Wave Shaping - Helpful objects to know - Max MSP Audio Tutorial

In this video we talk about the max msp audio object phasor~ and why it's an essential tool for audio siginal programming with some examples of shaping the signal ramp into other waveforms.

amazing channel ! subbed ! thank you for these great tutorials !
I used to have the patchblocks and enjoyed programming them a lot but they were extremely limited in memory. Max seems like a great step up but follows a lot of the same math principles, only with much more objects and depth

Excellent tutorial as always, thank you.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Super helpful!

really well explained thanks

The left channel of this video is silent, and I thought my earphones were broken.

[@unnecessary-roughness3303]

Love your tutorials buddy! Is there a way to do this with a sine wave in rnbo~ or gen~ since they don't have sinx~

[@AndrewRobinson26]

You should be able to use a cycle object to create a sin wave. If you want to use wave shaping to get the sin wave shape I believe rnbo uses a regular sin object

@@AndrewRobinson26 Hey brother, I ended up using a cos~ and it worked!

[@georgwahmer3961]

THX! Hey, do i get it right? the phasor to sine by 6.28 example is great for advanced synthesis because it is waveshaping backwards or something?

[@AndrewRobinson26]

That example you are referring to is shaping the phasor wave from a 0-1 ramp to a -1 - 1 sin wave. This is useful in a lot of different instances for example if you’re using the phasor to drive processes in your patch but say one of the processes needs the -1 - 1 ramp, you could use this formal and shape the phasor into a sin wave ramp which gives you the function you need while keeping everything in time because it’s all tied to the same phasor. You can also use wave shaping to get a variety of complex timbres and so much more

Great video, but wish the sound was on both speakers.... makes it difficult to watch using headphones.

[@AndrewRobinson26]

I’m so sorry I’m not sure how that happened.

[@KorhanErel]

@@AndrewRobinson26 no worries... I wonder if it's possible to replace the video file on UA-cam
