What ultimately determines the timbre of the signal/sine wave? I assume MAX has an internal sound for it, but other programs might put out a slight different tone?
@thedownloadz Ideally a precise mathematical model and equation would be used and all sine waves would be perfect and equivalent. In the real world, a lot of applications use lookup wavetables. If the wavetable and playback is of high enough resolution, you shouldn't be able to hear any difference, but that's not always the case. How precise you need things to be depends on your use. Max is certainly very precise. I may have to do a video on this! Thanks for the idea!
is there a way to use my .maxpat files with M4L
