HAHAHAHAHAHHAA! got to 13. squirrelly thing just keeps getting away from me! -mike 2009/7/17 Les Hall :

Here is a fun little game that involves some MAUI abuse - moving target windows!  Click on the moving target button to get a smaller, faster target window and an exciting phasor sound (from Kassen).  Every mouse click makes the window faster, hit or miss.  It's classic 1980's arcade excitement; I found that the growing tension of the speed and noise was rather exhilarating.  Krank up the volume and blast away!  I hope it's OK to post code to the list (it's only 4.5 kB) - I seem to recall posting code works, we'll see...

Enjoy,

Les

Les, If I understand what you are doing correctly the "phaser" sound you like in this case simply comes down to a short wavetable that's being looped over with a static start point and a endpoint that creeps away from it. Approaching it from that perspective might lead to larger control over the sound. That would enable -for example- polyphony. With the technique as I presented it polyphony isn't possible without changing the timbre. Resetting Std.srand() may be a interesting approach to modulate things in unusual ways but in larger setups it's quite limited. Then again; that limitation can lead to interesting questions and posibilities that might apeal to you. Yours, Kas.
