What is a triangle wave used for?
Like sine waves and square waves, triangle waves are commonly found and used in audio production, and they are a common waveform source on synthesizers.
What causes a triangle waveform?
Triangular waves are a form of electronic waveform where the voltage level ramps up linearly and falls away linearly at the same rate for both ramps.
What instrument does a triangle wave sound like?
Triangle Wave
It's not as buzzy as a square but not as smooth as a sine wave. It sounds clearer, maybe even brighter than a sine wave. Think of a recorder, or a breathily-played flute—that sounds similar to a triangle wave.
What is a triangle waveform?
A triangular wave or triangle wave is a non-sinusoidal waveform named for its triangular shape. It is a periodic, piecewise linear, continuous real function. Triangle wave. A bandlimited triangle wave pictured in the time domain (top) and frequency domain (bottom). The fundamental is at 220 Hz (A3).
