Modulation

</H1>

<P>

|
Having taken a two-chapter detour into aspects of control and organization
|
|
in electronic music, we return to describing audio synthesis and processing
|
|
techniques. So far we have seen additive and wavetable-based methods. In this
|
|
chapter we will introduce three so-called <I>modulation</I> techniques:
|
|
<I>amplitude modulation</I>, <I>frequency modulation</I>, and
|
|
<I>waveshaping</I>. The term "modulation" refers loosely to any technique
|
|
that systematically alters the shape of a waveform by bending its graph
|
|
vertically or horizontally. Modulation is widely used for building synthetic
|
|
sounds with various families of <I>spectra</I>, for which we must develop some
|
|
terminology before getting into the techniques.
