  2. Synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthesis

    Sound synthesis, various methods of sound generation in audio electronics Wave field synthesis, a spatial audio rendering technique, characterized by creation of virtual acoustic environments; Subtractive synthesis, a method of creating a sound by removing harmonics, characterised by the application of an audio filter to an audio signal

  3. Sonochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonochemistry

    Sound waves propagating through a liquid at ultrasonic frequencies have wavelengths many times longer than the molecular dimensions or the bond length between atoms in the molecule. Therefore, the sound wave cannot directly affect the vibrational energy of the bond, and can therefore not directly increase the internal energy of a molecule.

  4. Additive synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Additive_synthesis

    Schematic diagram of additive synthesis. The inputs to the oscillators are frequencies and amplitudes .. Harmonic additive synthesis is closely related to the concept of a Fourier series which is a way of expressing a periodic function as the sum of sinusoidal functions with frequencies equal to integer multiples of a common fundamental frequency.

  5. Frequency modulation synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_modulation_synthesis

    Frequency modulation synthesis (or FM synthesis) is a form of sound synthesis whereby the frequency of a waveform is changed by modulating its frequency with a modulator. The (instantaneous) frequency of an oscillator is altered in accordance with the amplitude of a modulating signal.

  6. Physical modelling synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_modelling_synthesis

    The first commercially available physical modelling synthesizer made using waveguide synthesis was the Yamaha VL1 in 1994. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] While the efficiency of digital waveguide synthesis made physical modelling feasible on common DSP hardware and native processors, the convincing emulation of physical instruments often requires the introduction ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    Acoustics is defined by ANSI/ASA S1.1-2013 as "(a) Science of sound, including its production, transmission, and effects, including biological and psychological effects. (b) Those qualities of a room that, together, determine its character with respect to auditory effects."

  9. Synthesizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthesizer

    Early Minimoog by R.A. Moog Inc. (c. 1970). A synthesizer (also synthesiser [1] or synth) is an electronic musical instrument that generates audio signals.Synthesizers typically create sounds by generating waveforms through methods including subtractive synthesis, additive synthesis and frequency modulation synthesis.
