ImpulseMsecSource
Overview
Source module which periodically outputs an impulse. Time specified in msec.
Discussion
This module has a single mono output pin and generates a periodic impulse of value 1; all other output samples are set to 0. The variable .periodMsec specifies the period of the generation process in milliseconds and can be adjusted at run-time.
If .periodMsec = 1.0, then the module generates an impulse every second. If .periodMsec = 0, then the module stops outputting values.
As with all source modules, you have to set the blockSize and sampleRate of the output pin. The module is initialized so that it fires immediately; sample 0 of block 0 is set to 1.0f.

M=impulse_msec_source_module(NAME, BLOCKSIZE, SAMPLERATE)
Source module which periodically outputs an impulse. An impulse is
a single non-zero sample of value 1. The period is specified in msec
and can be adjusted at run-time. Arguments:
NAME - name of the module.
BLOCKSIZE - number of samples per output channel. If empty, then the
blockSize is taken from the system input pin. By default,
BLOCKSIZE = [].
SAMPLERATE - sample rate of the output signal, in Hz. If empty, then
the sample rate is taken from the system input pin. By default,
SAMPLERATE = [].
