What it does

Live Input Ring Modulator

Demonstrates the use of WaveWarp's live input functionality. Plug an electric guitar (or any other audio source!) into the "input" of your soundcard and hit "Play". You will here the effect of "ring modulation" which is simply obtained by multiplying together two audio signals. In this example, the two signals which are multiplied together (via the Simple Multiply block) are: an input audio signal, and the output from a controllable oscillator .

This is useful for making "synth" type sounds from, say, an electric guitar, or alien voices from a vocal input.

Experiment with all settings and with different input sources and modulating signals!
