FOF (formante onde function) is an additive method that uses a periodic
impulse and a bank of tuned resonant filters as exponential sinewave generators,
while PAF (phase aligned formant) is a modulation method that shapes a
sinusoidal function with a lobed window at a subfrequency synchronised
to the main oscillator. In FOF the partials are given explicitly by the
filter coefficients, but in PAF the sidebands are a result of modulation.
FOF has more in common with the vocoder while PAF is a special case
of general VOSIM (wave packet method).
