The title says it all. Conceived in Max/MSP using two white noise and two pink noise generators + resonance filters. The frequency centre of the resonant filters are set to 440, 442, 444 and 446 hz. The outcome of which I'm not 100% sure, but I *think* it should be difference tones. This is combined with a sine tone generator with random frequency and a sawtooth generator with random frequency, essentially frequency modulating the output of those generators. There is also a random generator on both channels to indiciate the reverb time in milliseconds, with a maximum of 2000.
Only extra treatment outside of Max was the volume ramps at the beginning and end.
I wrote this (programmed it, really) in about 55 minutes, I started out aiming for 45, but I lost track of time while troubleshooting.
It's also important to note that the Q value or resonance of the resonance filters are all randomised with a maximum value of 2000. I am not entirely certain what this means, but I believe it's the width of passed frequencies around the centre pitch. Someone want to inform me if I'm right or wrong?
Honestly, it's getting hard to motivate myself to do anything at the minute, let alone Weekly Beat.
