<p>mincer —
Phase-locked vocoder processing.
</p>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" title="Description">
<a id="id3032212"></a>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>mincer</em></span> implements phase-locked vocoder processing using function tables
containing sampled-sound sources, with <a class="link" href="GEN01.html" title="GEN01"><em class="citetitle">GEN01</em></a>, and
<span class="emphasis"><em>mincer</em></span> will accept deferred allocation tables.
</p>
<p>
This opcode allows for time and frequency-independent scaling. Time is controlled by a time index (in seconds)
to the function table position and can be moved forward and backward at any chosen speed, as well as stopped at a
given position ("frozen"). The quality of the effect is generally improved with phase locking switched on.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>mincer</em></span> will also scale pitch, independently of frequency, using a transposition factor (k-rate).

<div class="refsect1" title="Initialization">
<a id="id3032283"></a>
<h2>Initialization</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>ifftsize</em></span> -- FFT size (power-of-two), defaults to 2048.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>idecim</em></span> -- decimation, defaults to 4 (meaning hopsize = fftsize/4)
</p>
</div>
<div class="refsect1" title="Performance">
<a id="id3032309"></a>
<h2>Performance</h2>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>atimpt</em></span> -- time position of current audio sample in secs. Table reading wraps around the ends of the function table.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>kamp</em></span> -- amplitude scaling
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>kpitch</em></span> -- grain pitch scaling (1=normal pitch, < 1 lower, > 1 higher; negative, backwards)
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>klock</em></span> -- 0 or 1, to switch phase-locking on/off
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>ktab</em></span> -- source signal function table. Deferred-allocation tables (see
<a class="link" href="GEN01.html" title="GEN01"><em class="citetitle">GEN01</em></a>) are accepted, but the opcode
expects a mono source. Tables can be switched at k-rate.
