Subject: RE: Anderton PWM (pulse to triangle)

From: "Tkacs, Ken" <Ken.Tkacs@...

I was searching for easy ways of turning pulse from divider networks into
Sines at one point, and came upon a PDF somewhere that showed one way to do
it using shift registers and a few resistors. It's an odd solution, but
interesting. I can dig it out if you like.

I've always thought that sub-octave dividers were very cool, but there needs
to be some way of getting something other than square waves out of them. The
odd harmonics of the 50% pulse are very recognizable to the ear, even when
you add a bunch together. I'd like to see one with some output waveshaping.

Thanks for the explanation. I've been playing w/ a
comparator
to detect zero crossings of a guitar signal. I just didn't
know how to convert these to other waveforms.
