Hello ludia! Here is my zatocny PD setup... the two wavetables I took from the audio examples and the multiple oscilator is my own beautiful creation. Sometimes I use all the dac~ outputs, sometimes I use just one or two.

Actually, I have a question about the multiple oscilator. Once I start using it, I can't make it stop making noise. Even when I turn all the number boxes to 0, it still makes noise. How can I turn it off?

hello eric, the dac~ object are useless if more then one, i believe it is the same then if you would use just one dac~ object as it is the output. if you have some better soundcard, perhaps something external then you could use dac~ with arguments like [dac~ 1 2 3 ] and it would mean to what channels/output you sound goes.. right now it all goes to one output and i believe that since you have one osc~ going that it is not really a multiple oscillator..

i tried your patch and then i did this one, where each oscillator has a small difference in frequency and it makes nice rolling sound.. there is also a *~ object which can be used wherever you need to control the amplitude of the sound, now it is used for all osc~ at once, but you might as well put every osc~ through a separate *~ - thats how you could control how much you can hear a particular osc~ .. your patch didnt make any noises in windows when put to zero,, the best way to see if sth is making noise is just to disconnect it from the dac~ ..

oh super, I'll try it. There is definitely a difference for me when I'm using 1, 2, 3, or x dac~ - the volume/decivbels is louder with more and also (I think) the frequencies change. Like: A = 59 b = 4 c = 13 d = 5 e = 4. Start with 5 dac~ and then take them away one by one... with just 1 it is a slower pulse but with 6 it is pretty fast

thats because the sinewaves each have a different frequency. so when there are five the resulting function is pretty complex as compared to one sine (that complexity is perhaps what you call fast).. but i think the same result you get with one dac~ and at least you dont have to put many patchcords.. but everybody has his own style of working with pd..

Yeah, I see, you're right. I tried for_eric and it is much more elegant than my patch. The *~ is very useful! When I cahnge it on the one dac~ it sounds the same as my patch with the many dac~. I also like it without the +1, +2, +3 etc, because I like the way very different frequencies sound together.
