APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A DRIVE DEPENDENT SOUND AND ENGINE DRIVEN VEHICLE

摘要

An apparatus for generating a drive dependent sound for an engine driven vehicle comprises a plurality of controllable synthesizers. Each controllable synthesizer has stored at least one sample sound and is configured to generate a synthesizer output signal in response to a synthesizer control signal. The apparatus further comprises a controller for mapping a plurality of vehicle state signals into a plurality of synthesizer control signals to be input into the plurality of synthesizers. Furthermore, the apparatus comprises a mixer for mixing the synthesizer output signals to derive the drive dependent sound.
