Yes, I wrote about that just a few days back when we had another discussion
about Nyquist use/abuse.


I wonder if this could be implemented in ChucK without resorting to

I tried and couldn't get it to work at a realistic CPU usage buit that was a
long time ago. I also went about it rather literally, using a actual sine.

What if we'd allow negative targets for Envelope.target()? that would make
linear interpolation a breeze. I still don't see what would be wrong with
negative Envelope targets and if I remember corectly that would work with
the removal of one check from the code.

There is also a implementation in SndBuf, maybe LiSa could use one too.

We could also think about a dedicated Ugen for this, I'm still very
interested in having something like SndBuf but asigning (I'd like to keep it
editable) a array of floats to it instead of a .wav file.
