description::
A cubic-interpolating sound generator based on a function given in Clifford Pickover's book Chaos In Wonderland, pg 26. The function is:
code::
x[n+1] = sin(b * y[n]) + c * sin(b * x[n])
y[n+1] = sin(a * y[n]) + d * sin(a * x[n])
::
warning:: revise formulae conversion to c like code ::
According to Pickover, parameters code::a:: and code::b:: should be in the range from -3 to +3, and parameters code::c:: and code::d:: should be in the range from 0.5 to 1.5. The function can, depending on the parameters given, give continuous chaotic output, converge to a single value (silence) or oscillate in a cycle (tone).
note::This UGen is experimental and not optimized currently, so is rather hoggish of CPU.::
