In all synths,<code>sustain</code> (default 1) affects the overall envelope timescale. The parameters <code>pan</code> and <code>freq</code> can also be set in all synths. The default value for <code>freq</code> is usually 440 – in synths where it’s not, <code>freq</code> and its default value for that synth are mentioned in its parameter list below.

"vibrato", "vrate", "perc", "percf" are all new params you'll need to define in Tidal if you want to change them.

List of Tidal effects and their descriptions

Basic effects

Delay

(parameters: #delay, #delaytime/#delayt, #delayfeedback/#delayfb)

Values from 0 to 1

Leslie

(parameters: #leslie, #lrate, #lsize)

"Leslie" controls dry/wet. "lrate" is the modulation rate (typical vintage rates would be 6.7 for "fast", 0.7 for "slow"). "lsize" is the physical size of the cabinet in meters, this mostly affects the Doppler amount (pitch warble)

Reverb

(parameters: #room, #size, #dry)

Thanks to Jost Muxfeld and James McCartney. Note that "size" is not room size, just a depth metaphor. Values from 0 to 1

Crush

(parameters: #crush)

Bit crushing, a pattern of numbers from 1 (for drastic reduction in bit-depth) to 16 (for barely no reduction).

Legato

(parameters: #legato)

Legato controls the amount of overlap between two adjacent synth sounds. Values less than one (e.g.: 0.5) will cut the sound off sooner. Values greater than one (e.g.: 1.5) will cut the sound off later.

Tremolo

(parameters: #tremolodepth/#tremdp, #tremolorate/#tremr)

Shape

(parameters: #shape)

A type of amplifier, values from 0 to 1

Coarse

(parameters: #coarse)

Fake-resampling, a pattern of numbers for lowering the sample rate, i.e. 1 for original 2 for half, 3 for a third and so on.

Phaser

(parameters: #phaserrate/#phasr, #phaserdepth/#phasdp)

Vowel

(parameters: #vowel)

Formant filter to make things sound like vowels, a pattern of either `a`, `e`, `i`, `o` or `u`. Use a rest (`~`) for no effect.

Lowpass filter

(#cutoff/#lpf, #resonance/#lpq)

Cutoff as Hz. Resonance from 0 to 1

Highpass filter

(#hcutoff/#hpf, #hresonance/#hpq)

Cutoff as Hz. Resonance from 0 to 1

Cutoff as Hz. Resonance from 0 to 1

ASR-Envelope

(#attack/#att, #hold, #release/#rel)

Values in seconds.

MIDI specific parameters

(parameters: #dur, #modwheel, #expression, #sustainpedal)


Extra effects + SuperCollider help file description

Waveloss

(parameters: #waveloss)
(Calum Gunn)

Divides an audio stream into tiny segments, using the signal's zero-crossings as segment boundaries, and discards a fraction of them. Takes a number between 1 and 100, denoted the percentage of segments to drop.

(SuperCollider documentation for Waveloss.ar:

Divide an audio stream into tiny segments, using the signal's zero-crossings as segment boundaries, and discard a fraction of them (i.e. replace them with silence of the same length). The technique was described by Trevor Wishart in a lecture.

Parameters: the filter drops drop out of out of chunks. mode can be 1 to drop chunks in a simple deterministic fashion (e.g. always dropping the first 30 out of a set of 40 segments), or 2 to drop chunks randomly but in an appropriate proportion.)

Squiz

(parameters: #squiz)
(Calum Gunn)

Reminiscent of some weird mixture of filter, ring-modulator and pitch-shifter. Try passing multiples of 2 to it - 2, 4, 8 etc.

(SuperCollider documentation for Squiz.ar:

A simplistic pitch-raising algorithm. It's not meant to sound natural; its sound is reminiscent of some weird mixture of filter, ring-modulator and pitch-shifter, depending on the input. The algorithm works by cutting the signal into fragments (delimited by upwards-going zero-crossings) and squeezing those fragments in the time domain (i.e. simply playing them back faster than they came in), leaving silences inbetween. All the parameters apart from memlen can be modulated.

This UGen is dedicated to Suburban Base Records. (It doesn't sound like them, but was half-inspired by them.))

Frequency shifter

(parameters: #fshift, #fshiftnote, #fshiftphase)
(Ben Gold)

Total shift is sum of `fshift` (in Hz) and `fshiftnote` times the current note frequency. `fshiftphase` allows control over the phase

(SuperCollider documentation for FreqShift.ar:

FreqShift implements single sideband amplitude modulation, also known as frequency shifting, but not to be confused with pitch shifting. Frequency shifting moves all the components of a signal by a fixed amount but does not preserve the original harmonic relationships.)

Triode

(parameters: #triode)
(Ben Gold)

Triode-like distortion, uses only the `triode` parameter

Krush

(parameters: #krush, #kcutoff)
(Ben Gold)

Sonic Pi's krush modified a bit so krush "0" is the same as dry signal uses `krush` and `kcutoff` as parameters

Octer

(parameters: #octer, #octersub, #octersubsub)
(Ben Gold)

Sonic Pi's octaver uses `octer` for octave harmonics, `octersub` for half-frequency harmonics, and `octersubsub` for quarter-frequency harmonics.

Ring modulator

(parameters: #ring, #ringf, #ringdf)
(Ben Gold)

Ring modulation with `ring` (modulation amount), `ringf` (modulation frequency), and `ringdf` (slide in modulation frequency)

Distort

(parameters: #distort)
(Ben Gold)

A crunchy distortion with a lot of high harmonics, the only parameter is `distort

Spectral delay

(parameters: #xsdelay, #tsdelay)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

(.....)

Magnitude freeze

(parameters: #freeze)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Accepts integers: 1 freezes the audio, 0 doesn't.

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_Freeze:

Freezes magnitudes at current levels when freeze > 0, and advances phase according to difference between frames to try and maintain currect spectral quality.)

Spectral comb filter

(parameters: #comb)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Number of teeth and width of the comb are all controlled using one floating point number

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_RectComb:

Makes a series of gaps in a spectrum)

Bin scrambling

(parameters: #scram)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Accepts floats to control the width and placement of the scrambling in the spectrum

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_BinScramble:

Randomizes the order of the bins. The trigger will select a new random ordering.)

Magnitude smearing

(parameters: #smear)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Accepts floats to determine the amount of smearing.

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_MagSmear:

Average a bin's magnitude with its neighbors.)

Bin shifting

(parameters: #binshift)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Both the stretching and shifting of bins are controlled by supplying this parameter with floats.

(SuperCollider documentation for: PV_BinShift:

Shift and scale the positions of the bins. Can be used as a very crude frequency shifter/scaler.)

Spectral high pass filter

(parameters: #hbrick)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Accepts floats in values ranging from 0.0 to 1.0

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_BrickWall: Clears bins above or below a cutoff point.)

Spectral low pass filter

(parameters: #lbrick)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

Accepts floats in values ranging from 0.0 to 1.0

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_BrickWall: Clears bins above or below a cutoff point.)

Spectral conformer

(parameters: #real, #imag)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

(No Description)

(SuperCollider documentation for PV_ConformalMap: Applies the conformal mapping z → (z - a) / (1 - za*) to the phase vocoder bins z with a given by the real and imag inputs to the UGen. Makes a transformation of the complex plane so the output is full of phase vocoder artifacts but may be musically fun. Usually keep |a| < 1 but you can of course try bigger values to make it really noisy. a = 0 should give back the input mostly unperturbed. See http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ConformalMapping.html )

Spectral enhance

(parameters: #enhance)
(Mads Kjeldgaard)

(No description)

DJ Filter

(parameters: #djf)
(Alex McLean)

DJ filter, a low pass filter for the first half of the range, and a high pass for the rest.

SuperDirt synths

Default values are in parentheses. Some undocumented parameters are included without descriptions.

In all synths,sustain (default 1) affects the overall envelope timescale. The parameters pan and freq can also be set in all synths. The default value for freq is usually 440 – in synths where it’s not, freq and its default value for that synth are mentioned in its parameter list below.

Instruments

supermandolin

Physical modeling of a vibrating string, using a delay line (CombL) excited by an intial pulse (Impulse). To make it a bit richer, I’ve combined two slightly detuned delay lines.

  • sustain (1) changes the envelope timescale
  • accelerate (0) for a pitch glide
  • detune (0.2)

supergong

An example of additive synthesis, building up a gong-like noise from a sum of sine-wave harmonics. Notice how the envelope timescale and amplitude can be scaled as a function of the harmonic frequency.

  • voice (0) provides something like a tone knob
  • decay (1) adjusts how the harmonics decay
  • accelerate (0) for pitch glide

For a demo, try d1 $ n (slow 2 $ fmap (*7) $ run 8) # s "supergong" # decay "[1 0.2]/4" # voice "[0.5 0]/8"

superpiano

Hooking into a nice synth piano already in SuperCollider

  • detune (0.1)
  • muffle (1)
  • stereo (0.2)

superhex

Waveguide mesh, hexagonal drum-like membrane

SuperCollider documentation for MembraneHexagon.ar: MembraneCircle and MembraneHexagon are rather similar, being triangular waveguide meshes of a drum-like membrane. You input some excitation, such as a pulse of noise, and can adjust the tension and loss while it plays. They’re named after the shape made out of triangular meshes. Obviously you can’t make a circle out of triangles, but it tries. At the moment MembraneCircle is a bit bigger than MembraneHexagon, using more waveguides and therefore more CPU.)

  • accelerate (0) pitch glide
  • semitone (12) how far off in pitch the secondary oscillator is (need not be integer)
  • resonance (0.2) filter resonance

  • accelerate (0) pitch glide
  • resonance (0.5) filter resonance
  • lfo (1) how much the LFO affects the filter frequency
  • rate (1) LFO rate

superchip

Uses the Atari ST emulation UGen with 3 oscillators

  • slide (0) for a linear frequency glide

superfm

6-op FM synth (DX7-like). Works a bit different from the original DX7. Instead of algorithms, you set the amount of modulation every operator receives from other operators and itself (feedback), virtually providing an endless number of possible combinations (algorithms).

The synth's author did an online workshop explaining in depth how everything works.

  • voice is the preset number: 0 is user-defined; 1-5 are randomly generated presets
  • lfofreq is the overall pitch modulation frequency
  • lfodepth is the overall pitch modulation amplitude

Each operator responds to

  • amp (operator volume - becomes carrier)
  • ratio (frequency ratio)
  • detune (in Hz)
  • eglevel (1-4) (4 envelope generator levels)
  • egrate (1-4) (4 envelope generator rates)

The syntax for operator arguments is <argumentName + opIndex>[modulatorIndex | egIndex]. For example:

  • amp1 1 (op1 as carrier with full volume)
  • ratio2 2.3 (op2 frequency ratio)
  • mod11 0.5 (op1 feedback)
  • mod12 0.78 (op1 modulation amount by op2)
  • detune1 0.2 (op1 detune)
  • eglevel12 0.1 (op1 EG level2)
  • egrate11 0.01 (op1 EG rate1) – WARNING: higher values go FASTER!
