how to produce triangle wave over time

Taken from the manual, we can use:

x = sin(time*2)*0.5+0.5 to produce x values that will form a sine wave.....

Is there a similar way to achieve x output for a triangle wave?

In fact what I want to achieve is for x to linearly move from 0 to 1 to 0 over time......Any suggestions?

Thanks!

You might want to take a look at Jay's LModIT in the Lib . . . it seems to do . . . stuff! :)

Hi

Maybe x=abs((time%2)-1) . . .
or as a function lfoTri(freq) = abs((time*freq%2)-1) with freq being the argument to vary the speed . . .

Can also modify these equations for amp and offset if needed . . .

Cheers

Sorry,but I don't understand:
this is "x" from what object?
SignalScope?
What about the "y",so ?

Doesn't have to be a Signalscope.

Could be any parameter you want to modulate.

Could even be a Y. :shock:
