Ring modulator

Ring modulation is an audio effect that multiplies the input signal with a modulator waveform, creating complex harmonic content. This effect is often used to create metallic, robotic, or bell-like sounds.

Parameters

• Frequency: This parameter sets the frequency of the modulator waveform. Higher frequencies produce more rapid changes in the sound, resulting in a more pronounced effect.
• Amplitude: This parameter controls the depth of the ring modulation effect. A higher amplitude results in a more intense modulation, while a lower amplitude produces a subtler effect.

Example usage

• Use ring modulation with sharp waves (like Square or Saw) to make sound metallic and harsh
• Use low Frequency modulation to create wobbly effects
• Ring modulator can add an "echo" or "ghostly" quality to sounds, especially when combined with reverb or delay effects
