Constant

What it is

Generates a constant control signal with selectable amplitude over the range from 0 to 10000. NOTE: the sample rate at which this component is executed can be arbitrarily set via the "Sample-rate setting for Signal Generators and Input ASCII files" button (or the "Sample-Rate Setting" command under the "Edit" menu) on the toolbar, which is activated whenever the component is selected on the DrawingBoard. Equivalently, it can be set via the dialog box which (i) appears when the component is initially dragged on to the DrawingBoard or (ii) is activated using the right-mouse-button when the component is selected on the DrawingBoard. This procedure allows the component to either (i) enforce a user-determined sample rate on the downstream component(s), or (ii) to inherit the sample rate from the downstream component(s). Different signal generators can run at different sample rates on a DrawingBoard, as long as the rules of connectivity for multiple sample rates are adhered to (see the WaveWarp Users' Guide for more information.) The constant amplitude is selected via the Parameter Window, as summarised in the following table. Parameter Purpose "Value" slider Sets the value of the constant control signal, given by the slider value multiplied by the "Max value" range selection. The resultant value is displayed in the "Total value" indicator box.
