Phase inverse?

Hi,

I want to make a phase inverse and didn't find a component to do that so I started to calculate with

x=-x;

but that didn't work. Then I tried

x=-2*x;

and that didn't work either. Then I did

x=x-x-x;

and that works.

Is there a better way to do a phase inverse? I'm sure I'm missing a few things here ... 😮 😉

Best wishes, FRitz

x = 0 - x;

Thanx Stefan!

I have no clue what you are talking about, but wouldn't

x = x * (-1) be more appropriate?

A multiplication is more expensive than a subtraction though 🙂 And it'll give you the same result in this specific case.

skOre ·

Yeah, in this case sure 🙂

Is this true when ussing SSE calculations as well (multiplication more costly tha addition)?

Just thinking for optimisation purposes?

stefan ·

Well, yes in most cases.

Ahh, excellent, thats good to know.. Thanks

I suppose I can always check using the assembler view output of the code component..

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
