How it's made
- Source
- tiny membrane wings beating 12–25 times per second. Each stroke pushes a soft puff of air, so the sound is band-limited air noise (2–7 kHz) whose level is chopped by the wingbeat, not a tone.
- Flutter
- two slightly detuned beat rates (ratio 1.37) multiply into an irregular, never-mechanical pattern; the strokes are squared and smoothed over 4 ms so they stay soft. The left and right wing beat out of phase, which widens the image.
- Wobble
- the distance and angle of the hovering creature slowly change the level and the brightness of the flutter (0.5 and 0.75 Hz, whole cycles in the 4 s loop).
- Twinkles
- magic dust as sparse sine pings on a pentatonic set around 2.4–4 kHz with a faint octave partial, a 4 ms soft attack, a 250–450 ms exponential ring and a random pan; the rate is a few per second.
- Variation
- `rng` picks the note, ring time, level and position of every twinkle; presets change wingbeat rate, air colour, wobble depth and twinkle density.
| Parameter | Range | Default | Unit | Controls |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| flutter | 8 – 28 | 16 | Hz | Wingbeat rate |
| air | 2200 – 6000 | 3800 | Hz | Air colour |
| wobble | 0 – 1 | 0.35 | — | Wobble |
| twinkle | 0 – 1 | 0.5 | — | Twinkle density |
| pitch | 2000 – 4000 | 3000 | Hz | Twinkle pitch |
| sparkleLevel | 0 – 1 | 0.5 | — | Twinkle level |
| seed | int | 1 | — | Variation, reproducible |
