## Detailed Description

STK percussive flute FM synthesis instrument.

This class implements algorithm 4 of the TX81Z.

        Algorithm 4 is :   4->3--\
                              2-- + -->1-->Out

Control Change Numbers:

- Total Modulator Index = 2
- Modulator Crossfade = 4
- LFO Speed = 11
- LFO Depth = 1
- ADSR 2 & 4 Target = 128

The basic Chowning/Stanford FM patent expired in 1995, but there exist follow-on patents, mostly assigned to Yamaha. If you are of the type who should worry about this (making money) worry away.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

stk::PercFlut::PercFlut | ( | void |  | ) |

Class constructor.

An StkError will be thrown if the rawwave path is incorrectly set.

## Member Function Documentation

StkFrames & stk::PercFlut::tick | ( | StkFrames & | frames,
|  | unsigned int | channel = `0` |
| ) |  |  | `[inline, virtual]`

Fill a channel of the StkFrames object with computed outputs.

The `channel` argument must be less than the number of channels in the StkFrames argument (the first channel is specified by 0). However, range checking is only performed if _STK_DEBUG_ is defined during compilation, in which case an out-of-range value will trigger an StkError exception.

Implements stk::FM.
