What is FPGA synth?
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) logic. The completed synthesizer was capable of producing a. wide variety of musical tones, many aspects of which were completely controllable by the user. Overall system control was provided by real-time embedded software running on the ARM.
What do synthesisers use to create sounds?
Traditional synthesizers use electronic oscillators to produce sounds. Both digital oscillators and analog voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) are used by today's electronic musicians.
How do you synthesize audio?
Periodic electric signals can be converted into sound by amplifying them and driving a loudspeaker with them. One way to do this is to simply add various amplitudes of the harmonics of a chosen pitch until the desired timbre is obtained, called additive synthesis.
