Waveset distortion

Waveset distortion involves the transformation of a sound at its wavecycle level that is, the unit for waveset distortion is a set of samples between two successive zero crossings. For example, a simple sinusoid sound is viewed in this context as a succession of wavecycles, and not as a succession of samples. 

The composer Trevor Wishart has developed a number of waveset distortion programs for the GDP package. There are two types of program in Wishart s kit programs that work on individual wavecycles and those that work on groups of wavecycles (that is, wavesets). Typical waveset distortion operations are
