I've noticed that some systems actually don't create [>~] or [<~], so I was thinking to redo those sections with [expr~] anyways. If you'd like to jump in and do all that, it could work. The main part of that chapter is that it is also covering digital logic, so I wanted to stick with values of 0 and 1 for clarity. Do you see any way we can work this out?

well, for instance

inside the Squarewaves and Logic  chapter

the DC Offset could be easilly built inside the EXPR object, either in the one that is already there, or in an object right after to make the visualization easier. I could edit all thos patches that need to adjust the DC offset.

On this case, it would also be nice to have the Tables just a bit larger that -1 - 1, (1.1 or 1.2) so we can better see the Square Waves.

cheers

    sure, I could do both.

    But I think it would be inportant to start just after
        * AUDIO TUTORIALS
        * SimpleSynthIntroduction
          <http://en.flossmanuals.net/PureData/SimpleSynthIntroduction>


    and before the oscilators with the Short DC offset chapter.

    Then edit and correct the oscilator patches with values from -1 to 1

    I also can create and put in the oscilator chapter a Triangle wave
    oscilator made with phasor

    what do you say?

    Cheers

        Alexandre,

        Yes please, get on board!

        In the case of the square wave chapter, I had assumed that doing
        it with digital logic would result in either 0 (no amplitude) or
        1 (full amplitude). So there shouldn't be any DC offset when
        it's at 0. Of course, there are some other real-world problems
        with those patches, namely that there is also no antialiasing.

        Since the FLOSS Manuals are "modular", they can be remixed as
        needed for any kind of workshop, class or curriculum, including
        or leaving out sections from all the different FLOSS Manuals as
        needed.

        So my suggestion to you would be to write a short chapter on DC
        offset which can then be referred to in the square wave
        tutorial, or in any other tutorial or manual where such a
        situation might arise.

        Likewise, I'd love it if someone could do a single chapter on
        the different antialiasing methods (Miller's, Frank's...). The
        idea would be to simplify the explanations so that one doesn't
        need a background in DSP or computer science in order to
        understand them.

        Would you be interested to do either of those?

        D.

            Hi, I am really interested in helping!

            I actually have some stuff I wanted to "corrrect", or bring
            some attention to, like the DC OFFSET. You dont cover it,
            and when you show how to get a Square Wave, the DC Offset is
            not properly adjusted.

            thanks

            cheers

               Hey Alexandre,

               I just posted the announcement of the Pd FLOSS Manuals
            Book Sprint:

http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2009-03/069107.html

               I was wondering if you'd be interested to help out next
            weekend? It
               shouldn't be a problem to contribute remotely, and it
            would really help
               build up the momentum to finish this manual.

               Have a look over the topics and see if there is anything
            you'd like to
               cover and let me know.

               Best!
               Derek
