In audio, a transfer function on a waveshaper refers to the mathematical relationship between the input and output signals of the waveshaper. A waveshaper is a type of audio effect that modifies the shape of a waveform, typically by applying nonlinear distortion to it.
The transfer function of a waveshaper describes how the input waveform is transformed into the output waveform by the effect. It can be visualized as a graph that plots the input signal against the output signal, showing how the effect alters the waveform over time.
The transfer function of a waveshaper can be characterized by a number of parameters, such as the amount of distortion applied, the type of distortion (such as clipping or saturation), and the frequency response of the effect. By adjusting these parameters, a producer or audio engineer can create a wide range of unique and creative sounds.
