A circuit to generate a stable and precise RF output on any one of a number of preset (or programmable) frequencies. Synthesizers are used as the local oscillators for receivers, and to set the output frequency of transmitters.

A software application that emulates some type of hardware synthesizer. Since computer power has increased radically in the last few years, it is now feasible to have a host computer do the work previously done using hardware. Some virtual synthesizers mimic a particular vintage synthesizer, while others are more generic in nature.

In reference to wireless microphones, a synthesizer is a circuit that generates a stable and precise radio frequency output on any one of a number of preset frequencies. Synthesizers are used as the local oscillators for receivers, and to set the output frequency of transmitters.

Hello Everyone,

This is my first time on the forum and I need some help and understanding. :)

Hi, I'm new to this forum and I'm sort of a newbie so I apoligize if what I'm asking for doesn't make sense. I remember when I was back in high school I purchased a bass synthesizer pedal that did all sorts of crazy stuff with my bass.

A system for generating waveforms or sounds by combining basic waveforms or sampled sounds prior to further processing with filters and envelope shapers.

Additive Synthesis

Additive synthesis is a technique of audio synthesis which creates musical timbre.

Can any recommend a software for Cubase 4 or 5 compatability to do synthesizing effects on drum and vocal analog recorded tracks. robic sounding vocal stuff and cool drum intro stuff etc. I downloaded a demo version of Alchemy(?) but couldn't figure out how to get it to do this even though they say it can. They have a cool demo video.

Hello
I'm new to adding preamps. So it'd be nice to get help

first off I have a Digi 003 rack and a motif xs8,fantom g8, access virus ti2, and a microKorg .

I hook up all my keyboards to the line inputs of the 003 rack.

Hey,

I'm looking to get a synthesizer but i don't know what is good to get for my price range (about £600 ~ )

Any one got any recommendations ?

I'm just looking for basic but good preset synthe sounds not unlike the Killers used on their debut LP "Hot Fuss". I tried absynthe but wasn't feeling the presets and don't know enough to tweak them to sound how I'd like, besides they didn't have much in the way of steady saw/lead type stuff. And Omnisphere is too massive for what I want.
