I would like to know if anyone could possibly help me "understand" this function, or give direction on how i should assemble the system in the Model builder. what blocks to use, how to assemble them, how to run signal paths, how to analyze the system, etc. pics would help, Thanks
Description of function ; A waveshaper is an audio effect that changes an audio signal by mapping an input signal to the output signal by applying a fixed or variable mathematical function, called the shaping function or transfer function, to the input signal (the term shaping function is preferred to avoid confusion with the transfer function from systems theory). The function can be any function at all.
Mathematically, the operation is defined by the waveshaper equation y=f(a(t)x(t)) where f is the shaping function, x(t) is the input function, and a(t) is the index function, which in general may vary as a function of time. This parameter a is often used as a constant gain factor called the distortion index. In practice, the input to the waveshaper, x, is considered on [-1,1] for digitally sampled signals, and f will be designed such that y is also on [-1,1] to prevent unwanted clipping in software.
