An effect mimicking the heterodyne whine of an old time radio tuner. It was created with Sound Forge 7's Frequency Synthesizer - generated by using 2 sine waves in parallel (a 7KHz Sine and a 1.1KHz absolute Sine) and feeding them in series with a 4KHz Sine. The amplitude of each was independently varied up and down during a 30 second period to create this whining effect.It was then further processed with a "Cheap TV" preset Chorus effect.Great to sneak in to old time radio broadcasts or problems with tuning.

that looks pretty step by step to me?

I'm sure it is but there are a few terms I didn't really understand, I dont know much of the technical side of producing sounds yet...

"1.1KHz absolute sine"? Don't understand how this is different from a regular sine, and also he talks about generating the 2 sine waves in "parallel" and then "feeding" them into another one in "series" lol, if anyone could explain that to me I'd be grateful!

Cheers

Easy. You run a pure sine wave through modulator and route it to DAC and anti-aliasing logorythm, using Fluke audiograph, while oscilating pitch frequency using the inverse LFO envelope, routed through -24dB filter and pitch-shifted through Eventide 8000 FX unit over dual-channel ADAT multimode fiber and detuned to pentatonic scale.

Duh, any n00b could do it!

Yesterday, I was browsing through some soundsets I have for Z3TA+, and came across a radio tuning patch. I really don't have any idea how it was made, as I don't quite understand ZT3A+ yet. I'm not a great sound designer by any means either. If you have Z3TA+, I'll see if I can locate that patch for you.

Originally posted by theholyalex Hey there, Has anyone managed to get a VST to make some kind of radio tuning effect? I'm looking for something similar to this: http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/tagsViewSingle.php?id=5460 But obviously using a VST would allow me a far greater degree of flexibility than a sample, so any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks, Alex

I think the easiest thing to do (and kick me if I'm being overly smart-assy here) but what's wrong with buying a cheap shortwave radio - endless supply of sounds on tap and possibilities are endless. I bet you could even find one in the second hand store or fleamarket or ebay for about $20 or so bucks.

just a thought...

I think the MS-20 can do something similar, then you just distort it. Don't ask me how though, I've been focusing more on the Polysix.
