[PD] how to generate such a signal in pd?

hi hardoff

of course it is ok to ask.. :-)

it is related to my efforts in emulating the snare-part of the tr-808 
snaredrum. i assumed this sound was not generated using ordinary noise, but 
some kind of granular synthesis (i'm not sure if that is right name for what 
i mean). the sample i try to resynthesize ( 
http://www.netpd.org/~roman/sd_snare.wav ) looks like the same pulse would 
be repeated with random delays in between. i just tried to rebuild that with 
a pulse like one from the sample stored in a table. in order to read out the 
table with constant pitch but variable period i needed a signal (actually 
kind of saw, not triangle) as described in the previous mail. it is not a 
scientific approach and i didn't succeed yet. it could well be that i did 
some mistakes or that this is just not the way to go...  :-)
