SyncSaw hard sync sawtooth wave


SyncSaw.ar(ksyncFreq, ksawFreq, mul, add)


A sawtooth wave that is hard synched to a fundamental pitch. This produces an effect similar to  moving formants or pulse width modulation. The sawtooth oscillator has its phase reset when the sync oscillator completes a cycle. This is not a band limited waveform, so it may alias.


ksyncFreq - frequency of the fundamental.

ksawFreq - frequency of the slave synched sawtooth wave. sawFreq should always be greater than syncFreq.
