/* CHORUS and FLANGE effects Both effects use a delay line to hold previous samples. This allows the current sample to be combined in some way with a sample that occurred in the past. An obvious effect this would allow would be an echo where the current sample is combined with a sample from, say, 250 milliseconds ago. The chorus and flange effects do this as well but they combine samples from only about 50ms or less ago. CHORUS EFFECT This combines one or more samples up to about 50ms ago. In this library, the additional samples are evenly spread through the supplied delay line. E.G. If the number of voices is specified as 2 then the effect combines the current sample and the oldest sample (the last one in the delay line). If the number of voices is 3 then the effect combines the most recent sample, the oldest sample and the sample in the middle of the delay line. For two voices the effect can be represented as: result = sample(0) + sample(dt) where sample(0) represents the current sample and sample(dt) is the sample in the delay line from dt milliseconds ago. FLANGE EFFECT This combines only one sample from the delay line but the position of that sample varies sinusoidally. In this case the effect can be represented as: result = sample(0) + sample(dt + depth*sin(2*PI*Fe)) The value of the sine function is always a number from -1 to +1 and so the result of depth*(sinFe) is always a number from -depth to +depth. Thus, the delayed sample will be selected from the range (dt-depth) to (dt+depth). This selection will vary at whatever rate is specified as the frequency of the effect Fe. I have found that rates of .25 seconds or less are best, otherwise the effect is very "watery" and in extreme cases the sound is even off-key! When trying out these effects with recorded music as input, it is best to use those where there is a solo voice which is clearly "in front" of the accompaninemnt. Tracks which already contain flange or chorus effects don't work well. */
