ABSTRACT:
A reverberation effect is produced in a musical tone generator of the type in which waveshape data points are sequentially and repetitively read out of a memory at a rate corresponding to the fundamental pitch of a musical tone. The reverberation effect is obtained by having a second memory storing waveshape points which are read out simultaneous with those from the first memory. The second data set is scaled by the ADSR envelope function and at selected echo time spacings is pointwise added to the data stored in the first memory. The data read out of the first memory is converted to an analog musical signal having a reverberation effect during the attack or release phase of the musical tone.
