In class we looked at the various parts of a synthesiser, which can use Oscillators, Filters and Effects to modify the timbre of a sound and simulate various sounds. The oscillator of a synthesiser is used to generate one or more waveforms. You use the selected waveform or waveforms to set the basic tone colour, adjust the pitch of the basic sound and set the level relationship between the oscillators. The oscillator can generate different types of waveforms, such as sine, triangle, sine and square waves, the most basic part of the sound is the sine wave, the sine wave is edgy sounding, the triangle wave is similar sounding to sine waves, but slightly rounder, and the square wave is also edgy and retro 8-bit game sounding. square waves.
