14 \section{Presentation of the "noise.dsp" Faust program}
15 This program describes a white noise generator with an interactive volume, using a random function.
17 \subsection{The random function}
18 The \texttt{random} function describes a generator of random numbers, which equation follows. You should notice hereby the use of an integer arithmetic on 32 bits, relying on integer wrapping for big numbers.
19 <equation>random</equation>
21 \subsection{The noise function}
22 The white noise then corresponds to:
23 <equation>noise</equation>
26 random = +(12345)~*(1103515245);
27 noise = random/2147483647.0;
30 \subsection{Just add a user interface element to play volume!}
31 Endly, the sound level of this program is controlled by a user slider, which gives the following equation:
32 <equation>process</equation>
36 \section{Block-diagram schema of process}
37 This process is illustrated on figure 1.

41 process = noise * vslider("Volume[style:knob]", 0, 0, 1, 0.1);
