[PD] efficient bank of sines

Hmmm, methinks that method works only for static sound. For applications
with independent volume envelopes of the partials you'd have to think of
something else.... the question is, whether the volume changes can be
instantaneous (where a real oscillator bank has to be used) or can have some
fixed granularity (then inverse fft is possible)

greetings,
Thomas

Yes, this is a good idea

just keep in mind that if you want to control graphically the amplitude of
500
partials (for example), the "spectrum" array / table must have a width of
500
pixels or more
