[microsound] "No Input Mixing Board"

Has anyone ever tried to emulate the effect using just software, like
PureData for example? It might be fun to put together a patch that
does something more or less the same, although I imagine you'd get
different results with every model of mixing board (maybe even with
different units of the same model). You could start with a short
sample of 60 cycle hum or other noise coming from a mixing board, or
just synthesize it "from scratch". Anyone know of any Fourier analysis
of 60 cycle hum that's been done? Is it just narrow-band noise
centered around 60 cps?

You'd save money on hardware, too.
