1 What 4s harmonic synthesis?
■ The harmonic synthesis function adds together sine
waves of different frequencies and levels, thereby
creating a "multisound” in wave memory (RAM).
[2] About the harmonics tables.
■ The DSS-1 offers you a choice of harmonics tables to
use as the basis for harmonic synthesis. There are six
initial choices.
1. BLANK: Level is nil for all 128 harmonics,
2* SAW: A sawtooth wave.
3. SQUARE; A rectangular waveform.
4. METAL: A metallic gong-like waveform.
5. CLAV: A typical clavichord waveform.
6 . ORGAN: A typical organ waveform.
■ When a harmonics table is selected, it is copied to the
"current harmonics table" where you can work on it
with the harmonic synthesis and editing functions.

The harmonic editing function lets you adjust
the data in the current harmonics table.
