AI 中文摘要
我们展示了一个音频门插件，它使用来自激光干涉引力波天文台（LIGO）和处女座（Virgo）探测器的真实引力波应变数据作为低频振荡器（LFO）调制源。传统音频门依赖合成波形，其固定谐波内容会产生可预测的泵浦效应。相比之下，致密双星合并产生的引力波啁啾在亚秒级时间尺度上扫过频率和幅度；当时间按LFO速率（0.1至10）Hz缩放时，这些啁啾产生具有不断演变谐波结构的调制信号。该插件表明天体物理信号可作为具有音乐吸引力的调制源，架起了可听化和创意音频处理的桥梁。
英文摘要
We present an audio gate plugin that uses real gravitational wave strain data from the LIGO and Virgo detectors as low frequency oscillator (LFO) modulation sources. Conventional audio gates rely on synthetic waveforms, sine, triangle, sawtooth, whose fixed harmonic content produces predictable pumping effects. By contrast, gravitational wave chirps from compact binary coalescences sweep through frequency and amplitude on subsecond timescales; when time scaled to LFO rates (0.1 to 10)Hz, these chirps yield modulation signals with continuously evolving harmonic structure. The plugin demonstrates that astrophysical signals can serve as musically compelling modulation sources, bridging sonification and creative audio processing.
