What-I-Found-Out #1: Unusual Random Waveform
Saturday, 14-Mar-98 06:39:02

     In the K5000, the LFO "random" waveform seems to be not the usual, evenly
     distributed one. In fact, it sounds like a so-called deterministic chaos (from
     the chaos theory). A chaos waveform is not neutral - it has much more "own
     character" than the white noise waveform generated with the usual linear
     feedback shift register algorithm. Not bad!

     Many years ago, programing in Basic, I set up a computer graphic using a
     random number function. After a while, the thing started looping! The
     computer only had a short random number table.

Two HH Cymbal Patches

      I'm sending in open and closed high hat patches. According to the new ed of
      Fletcher and Rossing, the upper harmonics of cymbals show chaotic vibration,
      which I think means chaotic changes of pitch. Jens pointed out a while ago that
      the random LFO on the K5k is chaotic. These patches try to apply these factors.

      I don't think these patches will fool anyone though. I'd say they're more
      interesting and realistic than an 808 high hat.
