Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0124197A2] A musical instrument employing a wavetable-modification method of producing musical sound. A wavetable unit (13) periodically accessed to provide an output signal which determines the musical sound. The output signal from the wavetable unit (13) is modified in a modifier unit (14) and stored back into the wavetable unit (13) as modified data. The modified data, after a delay, is accessed from the wavetable unit (13) and thereby becomes a new output signal. This process is periodically repeated whereby each new output signal is modified and stored back into the wavetable unit (13) to produce rich and natural musical sound.
