ABSTRACT:
A tone generator for an electronic musical instrument is operable for producing a highly stable tone signal over an extended frequency range. The tone generator comprises a timing circuit defining first and second time intervals occurring in respective time succession after the occurrence of a transition of an input signal. A timing capacitor is charged during each second time interval and discharged during the time intervals occurring between the end and beginning of successive ones of the second time intervals. A feedback circuit is enabled during each of the first time intervals for coupling the timing capacitor for controlling the discharge rate so that a highly stable ramp output tone signal is produced.
