scanhammer

scanhammer — Copies from one table to another with a gain control.

Description

This is is a variant of tablecopy, copying from one table to another, starting at ipos, and with a gain control. The number of points copied is determined by the length of the source. Other points are not changed. This opcode can be used to hit a string in the scanned synthesis code.

Syntax

scanhammer isrc, idst, ipos, imult

Initialization

isrc -- source function table.

idst -- destination function table.

ipos -- starting position (in points).

imult -- gain multiplier. A value of 0 will leave values unchanged.

Examples

Here is an example of the scanhammer opcode. It uses the file scanhammer.csd.
