Sound synthesis — Basics of sound When any mechanical collision occurs, such as a fork being dropped, sound is produced. The energy from the collision is transferred through the air and other mediums, and if heard, into your ears. On a small scale, the collision… … Wikipedia
Additive synthesis — is a technique of audio synthesis which creates musical timbre.The timbre of an instrument is composed of multiple harmonics or partials , in different quantities, that change over time. Additive synthesis emulates such timbres by combining… … Wikipedia
Adaptive-additive algorithm — In the studies of Fourier optics, sound synthesis, stellar interferometry, optical tweezers, and diffractive optical elements (DOEs) it is often important to know the spatial frequency phase of an observed wave source. In order to reconstruct… … Wikipedia
Digital waveguide synthesis — is the synthesis of audio using a digital waveguide. Digital waveguides are efficient computational models for physical media through which acoustic waves propagate. For this reason, digital waveguides constitute a major part of most modern… … Wikipedia
Subtractive synthesis — is a method of subtracting harmonic content from a sound via sound synthesis, characterised by the application of an audio filter to an audio signal. For example, taking the output of a sawtooth generator and using a low pass filter to dampen its … Wikipedia
Distortion synthesis — is a group of sound synthesis techniques which modify existing sounds to produce more complex sounds (or timbres), usually by using non linear circuits or mathematics.[1] While some synthesis methods achieve sonic complexity by using many… … Wikipedia
Symbolic Sound Corporation — was founded by Carla Scaletti and Kurt J. Hebel in 1989 as a spinoff of the CERL Sound Group at the Computer based Education Research Laboratory of the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. Originally named Kymatics , the company was… … Wikipedia
Wavetable synthesis — is a technique used in certain digital music synthesizers to implement real time additive synthesis and direct digital synthesis with a minimum of hardware. The technique was first developed by Wolfgang Palm in the late 1970s, and has since been… … Wikipedia
Sample-based synthesis — is a form of audio synthesis that can be contrasted to either subtractive synthesis or additive synthesis. The principal difference with sample based synthesis is that the seed waveforms are sampled sounds or instruments instead of fundamental… … Wikipedia
Speech synthesis — Stephen Hawking is one of the most famous people using speech synthesis to communicate Speech synthesis is the artificial production of human speech. A computer system used for this purpose is called a speech synthesizer, and can be implemented… … Wikipedia
Frequency modulation synthesis — In audio and music frequency modulation synthesis (or FM synthesis) is a form of audio synthesis where the timbre of a simple waveform is changed by frequency modulating it with a modulating frequency that is also in the audio range, resulting in … Wikipedia
