Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatuses according the present embodiments derive the sound of a Hammond tonewheel organ from the equal-tempered tuning of its tonewheels and drawbar registration design, as well as its vibrato/chorus processing and pickup distortion. In embodiments, as a reverberation effect, the modal processor simulates a room response as the sum of resonant filter responses, providing precise, independent and interactive control over the frequency, damping, and complex amplitude of each mode. As an effects processor, the modal processor provides pitch shifting and distortion by simple manipulations of the mode output sinusoids.
