2
3 .SH NAME
4 step \- generate a step waveform.
5
6 .SH SYNTAX
7 step [options]
8
9 .SH DESCRIPTION
10 Generate a step up or down of given amplitude at a given shift from the origin
11 (start of waveform), and write the resulting waveform on the stdout in the
12 given datatype.
13
14 .SH OPTIONS
15
16 1. shift
17
18 The position of the step (up or down) relative to the start of the waveform.
19 The shift can be in samples (no units) or can take time units
20 (using the samplerate option).
21
22 2. amplitude
23
24 The height of the step.
25
26 3. polarity
27
28 The direction of the step: up (zero before the step and `amplitude' after)
29 or down (`amplitude' before the step and zero after).
30
31 4. duration
32
33 The duration of the output wave, including the shift to the step.
34 The duration can be in samples (no units) or can take time units
35 (using the samplerate option).
36
37 5. type
38
39 The output datatype. This may be any of: char, short, int, float, double,
40 ascii (meaning one ascii number per line).
