Arpeggiator
An arpeggiator (often shortened to arp) is a feature available on some hardware synthesizers and software instruments. It allows the player to automatically step through a sequence of notes based on the player’s input, most often from a keyboard MIDI controller, thus creating an arpeggio. The notes can then be transmitted to a MIDI sequencer […]

Wavetable synthesis is a technique used in certain digital music synthesizers to produce natural tone-like sounds. The sound of an existing instrument (a single note) is sampled and parsed into a sequence of circular tables of samples or wavetables, each having one period or cycle per table. A set of wavetables with user specified harmonic […]
