Detailed Description

Wavetable oscillator module.

loads and supports up to NUM_MODULE_CORES (4) cores
it is mainly a wrapper/container for the module cores that do the acutal processing/rendering.

The cores are specialized and #include the wavetable .h files used for operation. The cores demonstrate the variations as documented in Designing Software Synthsizers in C++ 2nd Ed. by Will Pirkle.

The cores include (zero-indexed): 0. ClassicWTCore uses high-definition wavetable sets for basic waveforms like analog saw, square, and more

MorphWTCore morphs over a bank of high-definition wavetable sets using a morphing modulator (aux EG)
FourierWTCore uses Fourier synthesis to generate waveforms and demonstrates use of DynamicWavetable
SFXWTCore pitchless samples in wavetable format including land-speeder and robot punching; exrtracted and table-ized from original WAV files using RackAFX-TableMaker

Bonus WT Core: electronic drum wavetables

DrumWTCore classic electronic drums in wavetable format; exrtracted and table-ized from original WAV files using RackAFX-TableMaker

Base Class: SynthModule

Overrides the five (5) common functions plus a special getParameters() method to return a shared pointer to the parameters structure.

Databases: WavetableDatabase

Accesses and holds shared pointer to WavetableDatabase
registers its wavetables with the database
recalls tables from the database during the update() function

GUI Parameters: WTOscParameters

getParameters() function allows direct access to std::shared_ptr<WTOscParameters>

std::shared_ptr<WTOscParameters> getParameters()

call the getParameters() function
set the parameters in the WTOscParameters structure with new values, typically from a GUI To apply these new parameters either:
(a) call the module's update() function OR
(b) call the render() function which in turn calls the update() method.

Ordinarily, this operation happens just prior to calling the render() function so that is the preferred method of operation to avoid multiple calls to the update() function, which is usually the most CPU intensive function of the SynthModule.

Access to Modulators

std::shared_ptr<Modulators> getModulationInput()
- std::shared_ptr<Modulators> getModulationOutput()

Access to audio buffers (I/O)

std::shared_ptr<AudioBuffer> getAudioBuffers()
Reads:
Modulation Input values (modulators)
AudioBuffer Input samples for PhaseModulation (FM Synthesis)

Writes:

AudioBuffer Output samples

Construction:

(1) For use within a synth project, the constructor is specialized to use shared recources for:

The owning object (SynthVoice for the SynthLab projects) must pass these valid pointers to the object at construction time. Typically the engine or voice will be the primary synthesizers of these resources. See the 2nd Edition Synth Book for more information.

(2) Standalone:

To use in standalone mode, call the constructor with the shared resoure pointers as null:

WTOscillator(nullptr, nullptr, nullptr, 64);

In standalone mode, the object creates and maintains these resources:

MidiInputData: this has no read access so you cannot access its data. Ordinarily, you pass this shared pointer into the object so that it has access to the current MIDI input data. The object does not write data into this resource, so it is functionally non-opeational.
WavetableDatabase: this has no read access so you cannot access its data. Ordinarily, you pass this shared pointer into the object so that it can share these resources with other like-objects. However, in standalone operation the object will create the database and then register its wavetables with the object and use this local database for rendering operations. The code is the same for all operations so the object does not know if it is using a local database or a shared one.
WTOscParameters: in standalone mode only, these are synthesized locally on the object, and then the owning object may obtain a shared pointer to them to read/write the parameters directly.

Render:

renders into its own AudioBuffers object; see SynthModule::getAudioBuffers()
renders stereo by default. For wavetables this really means dual-mono where the left buffer is copied to the right.

Constructs Wavetable Oscillator module.

One and only specialized constructor; pointers may be null for stanalone

See class declaration for information on standalone operation

Parameters

_parameters	shared GUI and operational parameters; may be nullptr
_waveTableDatabase	shared wavetable resource; may be nullptr
blockSize	the synth block process size in frames (stereo)

Returns: the newly constructed object

Member Function Documentation

◆ doNoteOff()

bool SynthLab::WTOscillator::doNoteOff ( MIDINoteEvent & noteEvent )

overridevirtual

Calls the note-off handler for all cores.

Returns: true if successful, false otherwise

◆ doNoteOn()

bool SynthLab::WTOscillator::doNoteOn ( MIDINoteEvent & noteEvent )

overridevirtual

Calls the note-on handler for all cores.

Returns: true if successful, false otherwise

Implements SynthLab::SynthModule.

◆ getParameters()

std::shared_ptr<WTOscParameters> SynthLab::WTOscillator::getParameters ( )

inline

For standalone operation only; not used in SynthLab synth projects

◆ render()

bool SynthLab::WTOscillator::render ( uint32_t samplesToProcess = 1 )

overridevirtual

Renders audio from the selected core.

Calls the update function first - NOTE: owning object does not need to call update()
samples to process should normally be the block size, but may be a partial block in some cases due to OS/CPU activity.

Parameters

samplesToProcess the number of samples in this audio block

Returns: true if successful, false otherwise

Implements SynthLab::SynthModule.

◆ reset()

bool SynthLab::WTOscillator::reset ( double _sampleRate )

overridevirtual

Resets object to initialized state.

SynthModule Overrides

call once during initialization
call any time sample rate changes (after init)
resets all member cores

Parameters

_sampleRate the current sample rate in Hz

Returns: true if successful, false otherwise

Implements SynthLab::SynthModule.

◆ update()

bool SynthLab::WTOscillator::update ( )

overridevirtual

Updates the selected core; sets GLOBAL engine variable unisonDetuneCents that may have changed since last operation.

Returns: true if successful, false otherwise

Implements SynthLab::SynthModule.
