It makes it easy to write script files which play sounds when ran. It's also possible to pipe audio data from it over stdout. |

| Currently most useful for generating tones, modulation sounds (FM and PM, AM and RM), and simple timed sequences of such. Future goals include a more expressive language suitable for music composition. | Currently most useful for generating tones, sounds, soundscapes, and simple timed sequences. Can be used tersely and simply for that, but the language still lacks features for music composition without duplicating lots of script content. |

| The SAU language currently only provides wave oscillators. These can be used and combined in any number. | Audio generation is supported through the use of the following types of audio generators, and ways of configuring such objects: |
| ===== Documentation ===== | * 'W' – Wave oscillator, various wave types |
| * {{https://saugns.github.io/usage.html|Command-line usage examples}} | * 'R' – Random segments oscillator, various modes and line types; this allows smooth noise, and modulation both of and using noisy signals |
| | * 'N' – Noise generator, various noise colors and distributions; maximum rate, no frequency control |
| | * Parameter sweeps, and modulation by connecting objects – for AM/RM & FM/PM |
| | * An arbitrary number of generators can be used, and changes to their parameters laid out in time |
