SYNTHESIS
Across
- 1. A saved configuration of parameters in a synthesizer
- 3. A protocol that allows communication between synthesizers and DAWs
- 7. Components that control the amplitude of synthesized sounds
- 8. Abbreviation for Low-Frequency Oscillator, used to modulate parameters like pitch or volume
- 9. A preconfigured sound setting in a synthesizer, often stored as patches
- 10. An effect that thickens sound by duplicating and detuning the original signal
- 11. A synthesis technique where filters remove harmonics from waveforms
- 13. A filter parameter that boosts frequencies around the cutoff point
- 14. An effect that repeats a sound at intervals, creating echoes
- 18. The process of creating sound using electronic devices or software synthesizers
- 19. A technique that builds complex sounds by combining harmonics
- 21. The process of recording parameter changes over time in a DAW
- 22. An effect that alters the waveform to produce a harsher, more aggressive sound
- 25. A method where oscillators cycle through predefined waveforms
- 26. A technique that simulates the physical properties of acoustic instruments
- 27. A waveform with a sharp rise and a slow fall, used in synthesis
- 28. A synthesizer that plays only one note at a time
Down
- 1. The number of simultaneous voices a synthesizer can produce
- 2. Abbreviation for Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release, defining an envelope's shape
- 3. The process of changing a parameter, such as pitch or filter, over time
- 4. A filter that allows low frequencies to pass while attenuating high frequencies
- 5. Manipulation of small sound fragments to create evolving textures
- 6. An effect that simulates the sound of a space, creating depth in audio
- 12. A smooth, periodic waveform commonly generated by oscillators
- 15. The initial phase of a sound, describing how quickly it reaches peak amplitude
- 16. Devices used to shape the frequency content of synthesized sounds
- 17. A routing system that assigns modulation sources to destinations
- 20. The art of creating and manipulating audio for music and multimedia
- 23. A technique where one oscillator modulates the frequency of another
- 24. Devices that generate waveforms, forming the basis of synthesized sounds
