LuliAria vs Ring Modulator

LuliAria was designed as a quiz, flashcard, and casual game of sorts that gives you the options to be 'interrupted' by musical fun facts and multiple choice questions. The games are simple...mindless even...but the fun facts and multiple choice questions will get your musical brain spinning! The quiz and flashcards are a great way to prepare for an upcoming quiz, or just to test your musical knowledge. Current topics include music history (Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and 20th Century), Electronic and Computer Music, Music Theory, Audio Production, Rock, and Hip Hop. You can also track your progress on the statistics page to see how you're doing, and review anything you missed. Each update will include new fun facts, multiple choice questions, and perhaps some new topics!

Ring modulation multiplies two signals together sample by sample. The result contains the sum and difference of their frequencies, the sidebands, while the original carrier and modulator tones are suppressed. This produces the metallic, bell-like, and clangorous inharmonic timbres associated with classic ring modulators, from robot voices to detuned percussion. Signal path: the carrier is multiplied by the modulator to form the wet signal, Mix blends that against the dry carrier, and Output applies a final makeup gain. Ring Modulator is usable in three modes and can take either mono or stereo inputs. The host app must support mixing to bus inputs or sidechaining in order to use Ring Modulator with dual input. Outputs mono signal. OSC + OSC Both carrier and modulator are internal sine oscillators, set by Car Freq and Mod Freq. Produces classic two-tone ring modulation with no input required, good for bell tones and metallic drones. INPUT + OSC The carrier is your track's audio and the modulator is the internal sine at Mod Freq. This is the standard ring-mod effect: it turns voices and instruments metallic or robotic and adds inharmonic sidebands. This is the default mode. INPUT + SIDECHAIN The carrier is the main input and the modulator is a second, independent input routed into the plugin's sidechain bus. Use it to ring-modulate one track by another, for example a vocal shaped by a drum loop or synth pad. This requires a host that supports sidechain routing; if nothing is routed to the sidechain, the input passes through dry. Car Freq and Mod Freq do not apply in this mode.
