How can you create diverse waveforms using only sine waves? In this video, we study additive synthesis, which consists in building diverse waveforms, like a square wave, using only sine waves. We also start to look at filtering. This information is very useful…

Let's clone an instrument's timbre using nothing but sine waves and mathematics on our first plunge into the deep, powerful world of additive synthesis.

Overtones are the basic building block of sound. Come and learn how to construct sounds at http://www.synthschool.com

This video is about additive synthesis, and how sounds can be constructed by pure sine waves. If you are a musician or sound engineer…
