Editing Digital synthesizer (section)

== Digital synthesis ==

Working in more or less the same way, every digital synthesizer appears similar to a [[computer]].  At a steady sample rate, digital synthesis produces a stream of numbers.  Sound from speakers is then produced by a conversion to analog form. [[Direct digital synthesis]] is the typical architecture for digital synthesizers. Through signal generation, voice and instrument-level processing, a signal flow is created and controlled either by MIDI capabilities or voice and instrument-level controls.<ref>{{cite web |title=Digital Synthesis |url=http://arts.ucsc.edu/ems/Music/equipment/synthesizers/digital/Digisynths.html |website=UCSC Electronic Music Studios |access-date=2009-10-21 |archive-date=2009-10-15 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091015171323/http://arts.ucsc.edu/ems/music/equipment/synthesizers/digital/Digisynths.html |url-status=dead }}</ref>
