Abstract

In a digital tone synthesizer, musical tones are created by evaluating a generalized Fourier transform of harmonic coefficients. Tones corresponding to pulse-like waveshapes are simulated by using harmonic coefficient values associated with a pulse waveshape of specified shape. Apparatus is disclosed for producing sets of such harmonic coefficient values wherein each particular set is associated with a selected value of a pulse width parameter. Pulse width modulation tonal effects are achieved by changing the value of the pulse width parameter as a function of time. Means are described for including pulse width modulation as a subsystem of digital tone generators.
