>  why? the interpolation noise is what makes it sound so unique, so crunchy

I am just noticing Jamal's note in this long thread.

I actually agree with this!!

What seems like a bug or annoyance at first
can actually turn out to have creative effect.

I have some spoken-word audio which is about 30-40 min. in to
a long WAV file. I am using [phasor~] -> [tabread4~] and am getting
the well-known noise issue due to the single-precision floats.

But when used appropriately, this kind of distortion can be quite
pleasurable!

Since this noise character changes as we move deeper into
a long buffer, I am thinking about ways I can easily recreate the particular
kind of distortion I get when I am reading between samples N to M of the
buffer... (I have yet to characterize precisely what values N, M are).

I want to be able to have this kind of crunch available
as an effect, even if the single precision issue is ever fixed!!

why? the interpolation noise is what makes it sound so unique, so
crunchy, without LP and especially at very sloooooow playback. with a
good analog tube eq and pair of high end analog compressors, it sounds
like garlic smear in my ears or maybe even chilli mayo :)
