im sure this
RDF/JSON/YAML thing can make a case for it
Possibly, but I doubt the field of mathematics can ;)
possibly not. but, i'm not a mathematician :) i just know that toggling sliders
between log and linear in PD, Bidule, Audiomulch etc can be useful, and some kind of hint
from the plug which should be the default could be useful..
if a is the users parameter UI control value in [0,1], u is the lower
bound, v is the upper bound, and b is the log base, then:
port val = ( (1-a) log(u) + a log(v) )^b
= ( -a log(u) + log(u) + a log(v) )^b
= log( ( u+v^a ) / u^a )^b
= (u + v^a) / u^a
so the log base cancels out.
when its 0-1, yes. what about 20-22050? i guess i wasnt clear on why you are convinced log
hint is a bad idea. but given the above goblygook i gues i will never understand :)
