Generates a (pseudo-)random audio signal with a uniform amplitude distribution between -1 and 1. 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 characteristics of the noise signal are adjustable via the Parameter Window, as summarised in the following table. Parameter Purpose "Bandwidth" slider Adjusts the bandwidth of the output noise signal. A new pseudo-random number is generated at intervals corresponding to the selected bandwidth. Between these intervals, the audio signal output will retain its previous value. "Amplitude" slider Adjusts the amplitude of the output signal, after the random noise has been computed. Plot window Displays a representative portion of the output noise sequence.
Utilizes a pseudo-random number generator using the system clock as a "seed".
