Sound Files

The following file is the chorus from the Hail Purdue song generated from MATLAB. To help distinguish the notes, the sin wave was made to fade linearly with each note (also gives it a unique sound): Media:Jkubasci_hail_purdue_ECE301Fall2008mboutin.wav

The following file is the song played twice as fast: Media:Jkubasci_hail_purdue_2xfast_ECE301Fall2008mboutin.wav

Here is song played with y(t)=x(2t). This has the effect of doubling the note frequency (raising the note by one octave): Media:Jkubasci_hail_purdue_2xfreq.wav‎_ECE301Fall2008mboutin

% Duration of the notes (beats)

% Frequency of the notes (Hz)

    % Create the sound wave form
    % Here, I have modified the sin wave to decay linearly.  This helps
    % distinguish each note, and also prevents any "jumps" in the waveform
    % i.e. the end of note ends with a non-zero value, and the next note
    % starts at zero.  This creats a "tick" noise.
