Gesture Signal Generator

Gesture Signal Generator

A gesture signal generator is a digital control structure used to produce an audio rate signal suitable for sonic gesture. It can be thought of as a breakpoint line generator with durations relative to an external clock source. The components used to build up a typical gesture signal generator include: an external phasor signal known as a conductor, a phase-locked loop used to change the timing of the conductor, an interpolator that takes as input the output of the phase locked loop to produce a interpolated signal between two scalar values, and some mechanism used to control and manage the state of the phase-locked loop and interpolator.
