sound synthesis

Sound synthesis refers to the process of generating audio signals electronically to create musical tones, sound effects, or other auditory experiences. It involves manipulating waveforms, frequencies, and modulation techniques to design and shape sounds that can mimic real instruments or create entirely new sonic textures. Common methods of sound synthesis include subtractive, additive, FM (frequency modulation), granular, and wavetable synthesis.
