gen~深度探索:非线性耦合摆系统的混沌之声与同步之舞
咱们玩Max/MSP,尤其是深入到 gen~ 这个层面的,很多时候是在用代码“雕刻”声音。线性系统,比如简单的胡克定律式耦合( 力 = k * (位置A - 位置B) ),固然能模拟出一些有趣的物理现象和声音,但往往显得有些…“规矩”。自然界和许多物理系统,其相互作用远比线性关系复杂得多。这次,咱们就来点“刺激”的,一头扎进 gen~ 里,模拟带有 非线性耦合 的摆系统,看看当耦合力不再是简单的线性关系,而是引入 sin 函数这类非线性元素时,会发生什么奇妙的动力学行为,...

告别数值发散 - 在Max/MSP gen~中运用RK4方法精确模拟洛伦兹吸引子
玩Max/MSP,特别是gen~的朋友,可能都尝试过模拟一些有趣的动态系统,比如经典的洛伦兹吸引子(Lorenz Attractor)。用简单的欧拉法(Euler method)快速搞个原型出来爽一下是挺方便,但当你开始追求更高的精度,或者在较低采样率(比如你想节省CPU资源时)、系统参数比较极端(临界混沌边缘)的情况下,欧拉法那点儿可怜的精度和稳定性问题就暴露无遗了,搞不好数值直接就飞了。 这时候,就该轮到更高级的数值积分方法出场了。今天咱们就来聊聊怎么在gen~环境里,用大名鼎鼎的四阶龙格-库塔法(RK4)来更精确、更稳定地模拟像洛伦兹吸引子这样的由微分方程定义的动态系...

如何巧妙结合LFO与包络在合成器音色设计中创造动态音效
引言 在电子音乐制作中,LFO(低频振荡器)和包络(Envelope)是两种极为重要的工具。它们能够为音色注入生命力,使其更具表现力和动态感。本文将深入探讨如何利用LFO和包络的结合,在合成器音色设计中创造出富有变化的音效。 什么是LFO和包络? **LFO(低频振荡器)**是一种可以产生周期性变化的信号发生器。它的频率通常低于人耳可听范围(20Hz以下),因此不会直接产生声音,但可以用来调制其他参数,如音量、音高、滤波器截止频率等。 **包络(Envelope)**则是一种描述声音随时间变化的曲线。最常见的ADSR包络包括...
