Audacity Nyquist Plugin


I am playing around with Audacity and have been trying to generate tones with harmonics. Audacity does not seem to support it directly, but you can write a plugin to do it. The plugins are written in Nyquist (a variant of lisp) and there a small tutorial here. I do not have any experience with lisp and just want to write something similiar to the "Generate -> Tone" feature in Audacity with a harmonics field. Anyone have a simple example for a generate plug-in that I can use as an example? The plugins that come with Audacity are mostly "processing" types and the few "generate" plugins are not very straightforward.


Solution

  • Try the Buzz Tone example from the Sample Nyquist plugins for Audacity(at Sourceforge). I've never coded one of these, yet this example seems to make sense.
