Synthesizers, Why We Love Them!
There's a revival of all kind of synthesizers, lately. Used widely during the 80s, they are back again in many different music styles, commercials, business spots, dance music and also film music.
A Synthesizer is an electronic musical instrument that uses filters and tone generators to create waveforms which are then processed to generate sound. Modern synthesizers can closely reproduce the sound of some instruments, but many keyboard players use them for their characteristic sound.
Synths can reproduce a real instrument, adding a special "flavour", I can say "music spice", with harmonics and overdrive methods. Can create also instruments from the scratch, totally new, sound ideas that were in the creator's mind only. This is done using special algorithms.
Synthesizers use a number of different technologies or programmed algorithms, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Among the most popular waveform synthesis techniques are subtractive synthesis, additive synthesis, wavetable synthesis, frequency modulation synthesis, phase distortion synthesis, physical modeling synthesis and sample-based synthesis. Other sound synthesis methods, like subharmonic synthesis or granular synthesis, are not found in music synthesizers.
Synthesizers are often controlled with a piano-style keyboard, leading such instruments to be referred to simply as "keyboards". Several other forms of controller have been devised to resemble violins, guitars and wind-instruments. Synthesizers without controllers are often called "modules", and they can be controlled using MIDI.
While we are accustomed to see synth players using keyboards, did you ever see midi violins or flutes playing synth modules? Absolutely amazing. The wonder of synth lives in the magic of its creation, the infinite ways of creating a new sound. Are you curious? Just search in the main web engines and preview the best synth music. Listen to music online! Internet has infinite playlists as well, with many independent musicians that just want to be found to show you their talent.
