25 Years of Digital Synthesizer Architecture Patents

Authors: Kahrs, Mark

AES Convention 103 · Paper 4595 · September 1997

Abstract

While gathering material for a review chapter on digital audio architecture, the author decided to pursue the patent literature for the past 25 years. Starting from the Acoustical Society patent reviews, the author has examined a number of patents on the design of synthesizers. These patents will be reviewed and placed in their historical context together with the 'conventional' open literature.
