Just a wild guess, maybe you are writing interleaved stereo audio out instead of mono?

I’m writing some code to generate a sine tone that begins at a given frequency and the frequency rises linearly to a maximum over a specified time. Seemingly straightforward, my approach was to fill a sample buffer in a loop (I’m using the AudioSampleType on OS X, i.e. Float32):

frequency = minFreq + (frequencyRangeLength * (sampleIndex / lengthInSamples));
sineSweepSamples[sampleIndex] = sinf((2.0 * M_PI * sampleIndex * frequency) / sampleRate)

However, this generates a tone where the frequency increases at a faster rate than it should. When I remove the “2.0 *”, i.e. use pi instead of 2pi, I get the results I want, but I don’t understand why. Checking the formula (with the 2pi) in the Grapher app shows it is correct, and by dumping all the values in each iteration of the loop I see that the frequency is being calculated properly.

Can anyone explain this for me?

Thanks,
Jim
