Hello list,

I am trying my hand at some basic FFT stuff. I am designing a cross synthesis patch (see attached) where the amplitude from one signal is combined with the phase of another signal and fed into [rifft~].

The problem is that the polar to cartesian conversion using [poltocar~] sounds really bad. I worked out the trig formulas for what is going on, and found that using [expr~] to handle to polar to cartesian conversion sounds much better. 

Although I am happy with the [expr~] results, I am worried that I am not using [poltocar~] correctly, or understanding how to use it.The help files are very vague when it comes to the FFT objects in pd, so I was wondering if someone here could enlighten me as to what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks and have an awesome day!
