Quick & Dirty Sine
Type : Sine Wave Synthesis
References : Posted by MisterToast
Notes :
This is proof of concept only (but code works--I have it in my synth now).
Note that x must come in as 0
There's not much noise in here. A few little peaks here and there. When the signal is at -20dB, the worst noise is at around -90dB.
For speed, you can go all floats without much difference. You can get rid of that unitary negate pretty easily, as well. A couple other tricks can speed it up further--I went for clarity in the code.
The result comes out a bit shy of the range -1
Where did this come from? I'm experimenting with getting rid of my waveform tables, which require huge amounts of memory. Once I had the Hamming anti-ringing code in, it looked like all my waveforms were smooth enough to approximate with curves. So I started with sine. Pulled my table data into Excel and then threw the data into a curve-fitting application.
This would be fine for a synth. The noise is low enough that you could easily get away with it. Ideal for a low-memory situation. My final code will be a bit harder to understand, as I'll break the curve up and curve-fit smaller sections.
Code :
float xSin(double x)
{
//x is scaled 0<=x<4096
const double A=-0.015959964859;
const double B=217.68468676;
const double C=0.000028716332164;
const double D=-0.0030591066066;
const double E=-7.3316892871734489e-005;
double y;
bool negate=false;
if (x>2048)
{
negate=true;
x-=2048;
}
if (x>1024)
x=2048-x;
if (negate)
y=-((A+x)/(B+C*x*x)+D*x-E);
else
y=(A+x)/(B+C*x*x)+D*x-E;
return (float)y;

Improved version:
float xSin(double x)
{
//x is scaled 0<=x<4096
const double A=-0.40319426317E-08;
const double B=0.21683205691E+03;
const double C=0.28463350538E-04;
const double D=-0.30774648337E-02;
double y;
bool negate=false;
if (x>2048)
{
negate=true;
x-=2048;
}
if (x>1024)
x=2048-x;
y=(A+x)/(B+C*x*x)+D*x;
if (negate)
return (float)(-y);
else
return (float)y;
}

%This is Matlab code. you can convert it to C
%All it take to make a high quality sine
%wave is 1 multiply and one subtract.
%You first have to initialize the 2 unit delays
% and the coefficient
Fs = 48000; %Sample rate
oscfreq = 1000.0; %Oscillator frequency in Hz
c1 = 2 * cos(2 * pi * oscfreq / Fs);
%Initialize the unit delays
d1 = sin(2 * pi * oscfreq / Fs);
d2 = 0;
%Initialization done here is the oscillator loop
% which generates a sinewave
for j=1:100
output = d1; %This is the sine value
fprintf(1, '%f\n', output);
%one multiply and one subtract is all it takes
d0 = d1 * c1 - d2;
d2 = d1; %Shift the unit delays
d1 = d0;
end

Comment :
Hi,
Can I use this code in a GPL2 or GPL3 licensed program (a soft synth project called Snarl)? In other words, will you grant permission for me to re-license your code? And what name should I write down as copyright holder in the headers?
Thanks,
Juuso Alasuutari
