Radio tuning effect using vsts?

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:

But obviously using a VST would allow me a far greater degree of flexibility than a sample, so any suggestions would be helpful!
Thanks,

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" :eyes: lol, if anyone could explain that to me I'd be grateful!

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! :rolleyes: |

| 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. |

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. |
