Control Inputs
Gain-
ModEn
Type Default Value
boolean false
Description: Enables the gain modulation.
LoopMod-
Depth
Type Default Value
float32 1.0
Description: Provides the modulation depth for the loop modulation
signal. This should be between 0 and 1. A one means that if the
modulation signal has a gain of one, then the loop time (or fre-
quency) will get modulated between zero and twice it’s normal
value. A modulation depth of zero means that no loop modulation
will occur.
Loop-
ModEn
Type Default Value
boolean false
Description: Enables the loop modulation.
LoopTime
(or
frequency)
Type Default Value
float32 1.0
Description: The Loop Time (fixed mode) or loop frequency (Hz)
(fractional mode) determines the rate at which the pulses repeat
themselves. If the loop time is zero, the Pulse Step component goes
into one-shot mode.
In one-shot mode, the pulses are generated only when triggered by
the Step Count changing from 0 to a non-zero value. The rest of the
time the output is given by the Amplitude Off value.
Control Inputs
StepCount
Type Default Value
uint8 0
Description: This number is an integer which provides the number
of pulses. It must be between 1 and 16. Setting the value to zero
turns the pulse stream off, so the signal output is just the “amplitude
off” value. If the pulse step signal is in one-shot mode, then chang-
ing the Step Count from zero to a non-zero value will trigger the
pulse stream to start.
Audio Outputs
OutSignal
Type Default Value
audio n/a
Description: OutSignal is the output signal from the component,
which may be connected to another component or directed to an out-
put highway.
Internal Parameters
Ampli-
tudeOff
Type Default Value
float32 0.0
Description: Provides the amplitude of the signal when no pulses
are being generated. This occurs either because the Step Count is
zero or in the “dead time” at the end of a loop when there are no
more pulses.
