The FUN Equations

Warp Equations

The next five equations all behave similarly, and are intended to be used as follows: the value of
input a is the controlling value, and normally remains constant, although it doesn't have to.
The value of input b is expected to change over time; input b might be an LFO, for example.
The value for input a affects how the FUN calculates its output value while the value of input b
changes.
warp1(a, b)
We call this the Vari-slope™ equation. The value of input a controls the mapping of values for
input b. If input b is a sawtooth wave, different values for input a will change it into a triangle
wave. If input b is a more complicated waveform, the output waveform is also more
complicated.
