A keyboard operated musical instrument is disclosed in which musical tones are created by computing waveshapes from a set of harmonic coefficients. Tones with time variant spectra are obtained by scaling each harmonic coefficient in response to a stored set of scaling numbers. An efficient scaling implementation is described which changes the harmonic coefficients by increments of a predetermined ratio. The tone generation system provides a significant reduction in the number of stored numbers in comparison with a simple stored waveform tone generator. |
