> This page describes the **Sine node** of the Redshift renderer in **Cinema 4D**. It returns the sine of its input in radians or degrees — the classic generator for waves, stripes and periodic shading patterns.

Returns the sine of *Input*. When *Radians* is selected, the input will be assumed to be in radians, otherwise degrees.
