Basic Waveforms of Synthesizer: Sine Wave (2)

 

The Rhodes is the best known electric piano ever released in 1965, and the Rhodes have built-in electronic pickups like electric guitars, so tuning is required. The sounds from the Rhodes was a very unique tone, with a slight harmonic in the basic frequency. Especially, the Rhodes' sound has an empty atmosphere like a square wave or a clarinet sound, and when you play multiple notes, you can overdrive and make a fuzz sound.

 

 

(b) Electric Piano

Make a phase sound by placing a time difference on two sine waves

- Make Electric Piano’s EG (Envelope Generator) like that of the piano, but hold the Release time a little longer

To make beats with phases, detune two sine waves within a range of less than half-tone

- Using the delay to make the second sign wave slightly slower than the first sign wave will make it a more stereoscopic sound

 

 

*Key Points in making Elec. Piano sounds with two sine waves:

1. Detunes the same two sine waves to make beats, which creates a phase sound

2. When you layer two sine waves, the sound changes more stereoscopically if you delay one of the two sine waves
