KLSTRBAS (for "cluster bass") generates dense sounds by combining several waveforms with a fixed frequency ratio between them. Early Roland drum machines created cymbal sound in part by combining multiple square waves with non-integral frequency ratios. The combined signal was then high-pass filtered to produce a very dense cluster of high frequency harmonics. The genesis of KLSTRBAS was a failed attempt to create cymbal sounds using this technique.
Parameters:
MIDI key: [0 - 127, default 45]
Decay: [0 - 30 whole seconds, default 2]
Fractional Decay: [0 - 99 hundredths of a second, default 0] - synth kick drum sounds can be produced by setting Decay time to zero and fractional decay to a low value.
Density: [1 - 6, default 4] - Sets the number of component waveforms, defined as four times the density value. Higher densities produce a deeper flange effect but can also cause the sound to go out of tune.
Detune: [0 - 99, default 0] {these two parameters affect the relative
Flange: [0 - 4, default 2] frequencies of the component waveforms}
Wave table: [0=sine 1=tri 2=sqr 3=saw (default}] - type of component waveform. These are not band limited so aliasing may result if either MIDI key or generated frequencies are too high.
Technical note: The frequency of each component is determined by the MIDI key number and the detune and flange parameters. Specifically the nth component has a frequency of:
p * (1 + d/100 + g)^n where:
p is the fundamental frequency determined by the key number,
d is the detune amount 0 <= d <= 99, and
g is derived by the flange parameter (g = 1/(10^(4-f)) for flange value f)
Pluck (Hz)
Pluck generates a synthesized pluck tone with abrupt or gradual fade-out.
Pluck generates a synthesized pluck tone with abrupt or gradual fade-out. The sound is the same as the Pluck effect that is shipped with Audacity, except that the pitch of the note is determined by entering a frequency in Hz (cycles per second) rather than a MIDI note.
Parameters:
Pluck frequency (Hz): [10 to 10000, default 261.626] The default frequency is equivalent to MIDI note 60.
Fade-out type [abrupt or gradual, default "abrupt"] Determines how rapidly the pluck sound decays.
Duration [seconds]: Specifies the length of the pluck sound. The default is 1.0 second.
A table showing the relationship between note names, MIDI note numbers, and frequency (A440 standard tuning) is available HERE.
