Here is perhaps a better sawtooth wave generator:
sawtooth <- function(freq, duration = samp.rate, from = 0, samp.rate =
44100, bit = 1,
stereo = FALSE, xunit = c("samples", "time"), reverse
= FALSE, ...){
xunit <- match.arg(xunit)
durFrom <- preWaveform(freq = freq, duration = duration, from = from,
xunit = xunit, samp.rate = samp.rate)
channel <-
rep(seq(1,-1,length=samp.rate/freq),length=durFrom["duration"])
if(!is.logical(reverse) || length(reverse) != 1)
stop("'reverse' must be a logical value of length 1")
if(reverse) channel <- rev(channel)
postWaveform(channel = channel, samp.rate = samp.rate,
bit = bit, stereo = stereo, ...)
}
