The three elements of sound: pitch, tone, and volume
Sound has three basic elements: pitch, tone, and volume.
Just like the analog synthesizers of the past, the RK-100S analog modeling
synthesizer provides “oscillator,” “lter,” and “amp” (amplier) sections that
control these three elements.
Edit the oscillator seings to change the pitch, the lter seings to change the
tone, and the amp seings to change the volume.
