The Csound score file generated for the Jup(1) subset, for example, is as follows
[ Jup(1) ]
An excerpt of the sound produced by the Jup(1) subset is as follows (WAV, 16 bit mono, 44.1 kHz, 442 KB):
Comparative listening
By comparing these sounds, we identified the following characteristics:
a) in general, Chaosynth sounds tend to change
their "coloration" during their development;
b) all sounds tend to begin with wide distribution of partials and then
settle to a periodic fluctuation; sometimes they reach a permanently steady state
c) sounds of subset type 1 are more complex because this subset has
more values for the calculation of the spectrum of the particles, whilst sounds of
subsets types 4, 5, 6 and 7 are less complex because they have less values for this
calculation
d) the sounds of subsets types 2, 4 and 5 are lower
in pitch than the sounds of subsets types 3, 6 and 7 because the
former subsets contain lower frequencies, whilst the latter
contain higher frequencies for the calculation of the spectra of the particles
e) in general, those subsets which have more elements, produce sounds with
a richer spectral variation during their development
