Applications
- adding grit to sounds (i.e. similar to bit crushing)
- restricting modulation signals to a finite set of levels (i.e. stair-case function)
 |
This is not a pitch quantizer because this unit has no knowledge of 1V/oct or scales. A separate (and much more complicated) upcoming unit will take care of these tasks. |
Description
This simple unit quantizes the incoming signal to a given number of levels with separate controls for pre-gain and post-gain.
- Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle QUANTIZE(x;\mbox{pre},\mbox{levels},\mbox{post}) = \frac{\mbox{FLOOR}(\mbox{levels} * \mbox{pre} * x) * \mbox{post}}{\mbox{levels}} }
Parameters
pre
| Control Type | Has Sub-chain? | Fader Range | Fader Scale |
| Simple Fader | no | -10 to 10 | linear gain |
This gain multiplies the signal before quantization.
levels
| Control Type | Has Sub-chain? | Fader Range | Fader Scale |
| Simple Fader | no | 0 to 36 | linear |
This parameter sets the total number of output levels that exist between 0 and 1.
post
| Control Type | Has Sub-chain? | Fader Range | Fader Scale |
| Simple Fader | no | -10 to 10 | linear gain |
This gain multiplies the signal after quantization.
