I want to record a stable 60 hertz signal.

I want to record a stable 60 hertz signal.
And then midi-fi it.
And then, add tracks of 1/2 , 1/4  . 1/8,....
And then run cal scripts to delete, copy, move, those bits,...
What process might you suggest?
To get a good recording and start modifying?
What CW included synth might be worthy?

What is the purpose?
1/4 of a  60 hertz signal of any waveform is 15 hertz, which will only be audible by whales and pachyderms, and 1/8 of a 60 hz signal is 7.5 hertz, which can generally only be detected by a seismograph, even if you had an extreme low frequency electro-mechanical transducer.

Why record it rather than generate it?

MOscillator from MeldaProduction will generate a perfect  60Hz sine wave for you, and it's part of their free bundle:  https://www.meldaproduction.com/MOscillator

It's been a million years since my attempt a synth programing but seems the heart of a lot of old school synthesizers was an oscillator that generated pure sine or square or ? waves and then these sounds were morphed into what ever your heart desired.  Seems to be no shortage of free old school synths. 

But the Melda free bundle is a must have anyways.

Replaced primary computer, and audio interface, and all the other stuff.

Noticed a  'ground-loop' noise. Made it loud.  Had lots of ideas.

Changing speeds, note values,... result in midi triggers for whatever noises yearn for such relief.

A whale song sample is a good idea. I wonder if there is a unique time signature used by each pod...   Some sound the same ... But are different.

Hmmmmm.....

Thanks

Using a synth can provide some control over tones.  

multiple takes, contrast and compare, adjustments, pan, instruments ,....
