Wonderingif anyone has any info on whether Cubase Studio 4 has a test tone generator built in? I have looked around in areas where other Cubase users have found it, albeit they were other versions of Cubase, but have been unsuccessul.

A tone generator can be connected to a speaker using an audio cable. One end of the cable should be plugged into the output port of the tone generator, and the other end should be plugged into the input port of the speaker. This will allow the tone generator to send audio signals to the speaker.


Any type of speaker that has an input port can be used with a tone generator. This includes computer speakers, studio monitors, and even headphones that have an input port. It is important to check the compatibility of the speaker with the tone generator before making the connection.


Yes, most tone generators have adjustable settings that allow you to change the frequency, amplitude, and waveform of the tone being generated. This can be useful for creating different types of sounds or for testing specific frequencies.


The setup process may vary depending on the specific tone generator and speaker being used. It is important to carefully read the instructions provided by the manufacturer to ensure proper setup. In general, the tone generator should be connected to the speaker using an audio cable, and the volume levels should be adjusted accordingly to avoid any damage to the equipment.


Hi,

I have been stuck with generating a variable frequency generator via PWM of CC1310F128 using Driverlib example of PWM0 in NORTOS, using CCS Studio. So far I have been able to generate frequencies using PWM only with much noises and I could see the amplitude of harmonics in the spectrum analyser. With a constant duty cycle of 40% I have the following:-



Frequency index array -


}

Is my PWM function correct if I am to generate a variable frequency? The problem is that when I play this array of frequencies, before switching to another frequency after closing and stopping the PWM, the speaker makes a strange click noise which I think is the reason why I am not able to get an accurate output. Any help in this regard will be appreciated.



Thanks and Regards


Will try it for sure. And the problem was solved this morning. Apparently, the tone that I was trying to generate on pin DIO6 was giving good results when I rerouted to DIO3 using board settings. I still have no idea why some pins are more favourable in working with PWM than others. Anyway, thank you so much for your inputs.



Regards


I was trying to generate ultrasonic frequency in the range of 17-19khz using the same module. The frequency that I am getting is not that accurate. For example if I put 18000 as frequency, it will generate near an offset of more than or equal to 100 hz. What if I want to get a close to accurate frequency like 18880hz within a +/- offset of 80 hz? What changes should I do in order to achieve this?


I will need to look closer to exactly why the frequency is of (I can re-produce this), this is strange. As of now, my recommendation is that you enter the period in counts instead, and manually tune this value to get the correct frequency.


From the External Devices window in Studio One, you can configure your MIDI keyboard controller, sound modules, and control surfaces. This article will guide you through setting up your MIDI keyboard controller and sound modules. Note that if you are using a third-party MIDI interface or USB MIDI-controller keyboard, you must install any required drivers for these devices before beginning this section. Please consult the documentation that came with your MIDI hardware for complete installation instructions.


A MIDI keyboard controller is a hardware device that is generally used for playing and controlling other MIDI devices, virtual instruments, and software parameters. In Studio One, these devices are referred to as Keyboards, and they must be configured before they are available for use. In some cases, your MIDI keyboard controller is also used as a tone generator. Studio One views the controller and tone-generation functions as two different devices: a MIDI keyboard controller and a sound module. The MIDI controls (keyboard, knobs, faders, etc.) will be set up as a Keyboard. The sound modules will be set up as an Instrument.


Make sure you have connected the MIDI Out of your external MIDI controller to a MIDI In on your PreSonus audio interface (if available) or other MIDI interface. If you are using a USB MIDI controller, connect it to your computer and power it on.


From the menu on the left, select your MIDI controller from the list of manufacturers and models. If you do not see your MIDI controller listed, select New Keyboard. At this point, you can customize the name of your keyboard by entering the manufacturer and device names.


You must specify which MIDI channels will be used to communicate with this keyboard. For most purposes, you should select all MIDI channels. If you are unsure of which MIDI channels to choose, select all 16.


Studio One allows you to filter out specific control functions. If you would like Studio One to ignore Aftertouch, Pitch Bend, Program Change, or all CC messages, enable filtering for any or all of these messages.


If this is the only keyboard that you will use to control your external synthesizers and virtual instruments, you should check the box next to Default Instrument Input. This will automatically assign your keyboard to control all MIDI devices in Studio One Artist.


MIDI instrument controllers (keyboards, MIDI guitars, etc.) send musical information, in the form of MIDI data, to tone modules and virtual instruments, which respond by generating sound as instructed. Tone modules can be standalone sound devices or can be integrated into a MIDI instrument, such as a keyboard synthesizer. Studio One Artist refers to all tone generators as Instruments. Once you have set up your MIDI keyboard controller, take a moment to configure your sound module.


The Model 44D Audio Interface provides a simple yet high-performance means of interfacing two channels of analog line-level audio to and from applications that utilize Dante audio-over-Ethernet media networking technology. Two Model 44D units can also provide one-to-one signal paths, two in each direction, over a standard local area network (LAN). In addition, the unit supports transport of status signals or contact closures between Model 44D units and other compatible products. There are two general-purpose inputs (GPI) and two general-purpose output (GPO) on each Model 44D.


A special operating mode allows the Model 44D to serve as a tone generator rather than an audio interface. When configured for the tone generator mode 18 kHz and 20 kHz sine-wave audio signals are available in both the analog and digital domains. These frequency values are applicable when the Dante sample rate is configured for 48 kHz. When the Dante sample rate is 44.1 kHz, the tone generator output frequencies will be 16.5375 kHz and 18.375 kHz, respectively.


The Model 44D is a fully professional product that offers the audio quality, features, and reliability required by 24-hour, on-air, and commercial applications. The two line-level audio inputs use standard 3-pin female XLR connectors for easy interfacing with balanced and unbalanced sources. The input audio signals are converted to 24-bit digital and then transported via the Dante interface. Two digital audio signals arrive into the Model 44D via the Dante interface and are then converted to analog. Two 3-pin male XLR connectors on the Model 44D's back panel provide balanced line-level outputs.


The Model 44D is designed as a bridge, using Dante to link analog or other Dante interfaces found on devices such as matrix intercom systems, broadcast routers, and audio consoles. An Ethernet connection is all that's required to make the Model 44D part of a sophisticated, networked audio system. Dante audio-over-Ethernet has found wide acceptance as an audio "backbone" due to its ease of use, high performance, strong interoperability, and wide adoption by a large number of equipment manufacturers. The Model 44D is a general-purpose "tool" that helps to expand Dante's capabilities to facilities and equipment that primarily supports signals in the analog domain.


Careful attention to circuit design and component selection ensures that excellent audio quality is maintained. Extensive filtering helps prevent damage or less-than-optimal performance should DC voltage, ESD ("static"), or strong RF signals be present on the associated analog signals.


Configuration switches allow several Model 44D operating parameters to be selected. The nominal audio levels of the line input and line output functions can be independently selected. In this way compatibility with SMPTE and EBU nominal signal levels is supported. Audio level meters provide confirmation of system performance during setup and operation. Two general purpose input and two general purpose output functions allow support for installer-selected applications, including party-line intercom call-light functions. Two LEDs provide a direct indication of the status of the GPO functions.


The Model 44D can be powered by Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) or an external source of 12 volts DC. Standard connectors are used for the line inputs and outputs, Ethernet, GPI/GPO, and DC power interconnections. The Model 44D's tabletop enclosure weighs less than two pounds, making it well suited for use in portable applications. Alternately, using one of the optional rack-mount front panels, one or two Model 44D units can be mounted in a single space (1U) of a standard 19-inch rack enclosure.


Audio data is sent to the Model 44D using the Dante audio-over-Ethernet media networking technology. Audio signals with a sample rate of 44.1 or 48 kHz and a bit depth of up to 24 are supported. The two line input channels are converted to digital and then routed to transmitter (output) channels on the Dante interface. Two transmitter (output) channels from an associated Dante-enabled source device can be assigned to the Model 44D's receiver (input) channels using the Dante Controller application. These are then converted into analog outputs.
