ABSTRACT:
A keyboard operated musical instrument is disclosed in which dual musical tones are created by reading out data values stored in a waveshape memory. Waveshape data values are read out alternately by two memory addressing circuits. One memory addressing circuit addresses out waveshape data values at a constant memory address advance rate corresponding to the fundamental frequency of an actuated keyboard switch. The second memory addressing circuit addresses out waveshape data points at a time variant memory advance rate. The two sets of read out waveshape data values are combined to produce a dual musical tone.
