Oeyvind,<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp; An exponential curve would be one like y = 2 ^x where the normalized index is in the exponent not in the base. For your particular case where the table value is the square of the index I&#39;d call it a quadratic curve.

I would like to create a table containing a an exponential curve (or<br>so I thought),<br>where the table value equals the normalized index raised to the 2nd power.<br><br>for example, for a table size of 4(+1) I would have these values:
<br>0, 0.0625, 0.25, 0.5625, 1<br>being calulated as:<br>(0/4)*(0/4), (1/4)*(1/4), (2/4)*(2/4), (3/4)*(3/4), (4/4)*(4/4)<br><br>This is the curve I would expect when using an exponential curve for<br>mapping of midi controller values.
<br>It would be nice if I could find a GEN routine that did this, and I<br>expected GEN05 to do it, but it seems I have misunderstood something<br>about exponential curves as I don&#39;t get this curve with GEN05.<br><br>
Could someone please explain how GEN05 calculates it&#39;s values,<br>and indicate what would be the correct term for the curve I describe above ?<br><br>best<br>Oeyvind<br>--<br>Send bugs reports to this list.<br>To unsubscribe, send email to
