摘要： A wavetable audio synthesizer with means for eliminating zipper noise caused by large volume increments, especially at slower rates of volume increment. The wavetable audio synthesizer includes shift circuitry which stores the value of volume increment in binary format and shifts the value right when the shift circuitry is enabled. Shifting the increment value right divides the value by an amount based on the number of bit positions shifted. For example, in the preferred embodiment, the volume increment value is shifted right three positions, thereby dividing it by three and effectively reducing the increment value. When the synthesizer is programmed to increment the volume at a slow rate, preferably the shift circuitry is automatically enabled. Those volume increment bits which are shifted right may be added to the current value of the volume to provide more resolution to this value.

摘要： A digital wavetable audio synthesizer is described. A synthesizer volume generator, which has several modes of controlling the volume, adds envelope, right offset, left offset, and effects volume to the data. The data can be placed in one of sixteen fixed stereo pan positions, or left and right offsets can be programmed to place the data anywhere in the stereo field. The left and right offset values can also be programmed to control the overall volume. Zipper noise is prevented by controlling the volume increment. A synthesizer LFO generator can ad LFO variation to: (i) the wavetable data addressing rate, for creating a vibrato effect; and (ii) a voice's volume, for creating a tremolo effect. Generated data to be output from the synthesizer is stored in left and right accumulators. However, when creating delay-based effects, data is stored in one of several effects accumulators. This data is then written to a wavetable. The difference between the wavetable write and read addresses for this data provides a delay for echo and reverb effects. LFO variations added to the read address create a chorus and flange effects. The volume of the delay-based effects data can be attenuated to provide volume decay for an echo effect. After the delay-based effects processing, the data can be provided with left and right offset volume components which determine how much of the effect is heard and its stereo position. The data is then stored in the left and right accumulators.

摘要： A digital wavetable audio synthesizer including a synthesizer volume generator. The volume generator causing a data sample to be multiplied by volume components that add right offset, left offset, and effects volume to the data. The left and right offsets provide stereo field positioning, and the effects volume is used in generating an echo effect. The data sample can be placed in one of sixteen fixed stereo pan positions, or alternatively the left and right offset values can be programmed to place the data anywhere in the stereo field. The synthesizer includes a register array programmed with right and left offset values for providing wavetable data with right and left offset volume components. The synthesizer also includes a first storage device for storing the right offset value, a second storage device for storing the left offset value, and multiplication circuitry connected to both storage devices for providing wavetable data with right and left offset volume components based on values stored in the first and second storage devices.

摘要： A digital wavetable audio synthesizer with an LFO generator is described. The synthesizer can generate up to 32 high-quality audio digital signals or voices, including delay-based effects. The synthesizer includes an address generator which has several modes of addressing wavetable data. The address generator's addressing rate controls the pitch of the synthesizer's output signal. A synthesizer volume generator, which has several modes of controlling the volume, adds envelope, right offset, left offset, and effects volume to the data. The synthesizer LFO generator can add LFO variation to: (i) the wavetable data addressing rate, for creating a vibrato effect; and (ii) a voice's volume, for creating a tremolo effect. The LFO generator assigns two triangular-wave LFOs to each of the 32 possible voices. One LFO is dedicated to vibrato (frequency modulation) effects and the other to tremolo (amplitude modulation) effects. It is possible to ramp the depth of each LFO into and out of a programmable maximum. The parameters for each LFO are stored in local memory. When creating delay-based effects, data is stored in one of several effects accumulators. This data is then written to a wavetable. The difference between the wavetable write and read addresses for this data provides a delay for echo and reverb effects. LFO variations can be added to the read address to create chorus and flange effects.

摘要： A digital wavetable audio synthesizer is described. The synthesizer can generate up to 32 high-quality audio digital signals or voices, including delay-based effects, at either a 44.1 KHz sample rate or at sample rates compatible with a prior art wavetable synthesizer. The synthesizer includes an address generator which has several modes of addressing wavetable data. The address generator's addressing rate controls the pitch of the synthesizer's output signal. The synthesizer performs a 10-bit interpolation, using the wavetable data addressed by the address generator, to interpolate additional data samples. When the address generator loops through a block of data, the signal path interpolates between the data at the end and start addresses of the block of data to prevent discontinuities in the generated signal. A synthesizer volume generator, which has several modes of controlling the volume, adds envelope, right offset, left offset, and effects volume to the data. The data can be placed in one of sixteen fixed stereo pan positions, or left and right offsets can be programmed to place the data anywhere in the stereo field.

摘要： The present invention discloses a bi-directional bus system including one or more junction circuits and a plurality of logic blocks wherein each logic block includes circuitry for transmitting and receiving data and a driver circuit for selectively driving an idle state or data signals as output signals. A bi-directional bus segment for conducting data signals thereon couples a logic block or a junction circuit to another junction circuit. The output signal to each bi-directional bus segment coupled to a junction circuit is a function of the input signals from all the other bi-directional bus segments coupled to the junction circuit and is controlled by one input signal not being driven into the idle state when all the other input signals are driven into the idle state. The bi-directional bus segment coupled to each logic block directly provides input signals to the logic block.
