In the first system, ''''white'''' noise from a noise generator is filtered by a plurality of narrow-bandpass filters to obtain the narrow bands of noise. In the second system, the output of a noise generator is passed through a lowpass filter to provide a modulating voltage which is applied to a pair of photocells, whose resistance is photoelectrically varied sinusoidally (180* out of phase) with time, to obtain each narrow band of noise. In both cases, the narrow bands are combined with the main tone and converted to sound in an electro-acoustic output system.,下面是Electrical musical instrument专利的具体信息内容。
