The comb was still drawn too heavy. Each frame showed the whole band
the comb had swept over the last 1/20 s, edged by two lines 1.5 wide,
and the faster the delay moved, the thicker that band got.
- flangerLine draws the comb where the light is as one line, 1 wide.
It runs through the ends of each column and the peaks and notches
in it, where they are. A comb finer than a column zigzags over it.
- Behind the line a faint trail shows what the comb swept over the
last 1/20 s, and over the last 1/40 s once more, so it fades with
age. A Flanger that stands still has none.
- The line fades out where its teeth move more than a quarter of a
tooth within the trail (clearAt), and is gone from half a tooth on.
There only the calm band of the trail is left, so nothing flickers.
- responseFrame gives the screen the line, how clear each point is,
the sharp columns for the notches and the trail. It replaces
responseColumnsOf, and RESPONSE_BLUR is now RESPONSE_TRAIL.
- The notches are counted on the sharp comb again, not on the band.
- The Phaser's response is drawn as the same thin line, without a
trail.
Tests:
Unit modulation-view (stein2): 26 tests, 2 new. The line holds the
comb's dB at each point and every notch. On a fast swing it fades
out over 8 kHz, stays clear under 1 kHz, and the trail is the same
band over 16 kHz in three frames. A still Flanger has no trail.
Counter-check: with clearAt always 1, the fade test fails.
e2e 34 (atx): ALL PASSED, 142 checks.
Gate (atx): CHECK EXIT 0, 291 files, 4471 tests.
Pictures of the default Flanger, a fast one (2 Hz, 5 ms) and one
sweeping to 20 ms, and of the Phaser: a thin line, the trail
behind it, a calm band high up.
