In this Webel mini-tutorial trail for PureData synthesis you'll find some snapshots of patches used to create the "sound circles" animated logo for the PLAY music project. Each circle (created with GEM) corresponds to an evolving oscillator frequency with evolving amplitude and pan. There are 8 circles in all, 7 coloured after the optical spectrum, and one white outer circle, giving a composite sound with 1 base frequency and 7 harmonics (in the case where the ratio between frequencies is 2, i.e. an octave).
