Device Details

Overview

Name \| Version:	qerror quantization error synth and FX 1.0
Author:	tomme
Device Type:	Instrument
Description:	Sounds born from quantization error Quantization error = difference between original analog signal 🎤 and digital representation 💻 after quantization. This creates noise/distortion ⚡, especially in low-bit-depth systems. 👉 qerror devices link pitch ↔ quantization error to shape timbres: 🎶 Low notes = coarse, buzzy error 🎵 High notes = finer, hiss-like error 🎹 Attacks/decays = bursts then thinning VIDEO DEMO: https://youtu.be/pHmH1e6JpL0?si=b2WQwFk6V-3INLMQ 🎹 qerror instrument Sine wave 🌊 → copy reduced in bit depth 🪓 → subtracted from original ➖ → leaves only the quantization error ⚡ = synthesis output. Parameters: 🔢 steps – number of divisions 📊 steps % – ADSR depth on steps 🔄 mode – 1 (round), 2 (round + normalize), 3 (truncate) ⏬ resampling + resampling % 🎚️ LPF frequency / % 🎧 wide 🌀 glide 🎛️ qerrorFX Same principle, but applied to input sounds 🎤. Parameters: 🔢 steps + steps % 🔄 mode (1,2,3) ⏬ resampling + % 🎚️ LPF frequency / % Onset notes 🎶 trigger steps, resampling, and filter. 🌊 smooth → softer attack 🕰️ decay → longer tail
