Audio Sampling table of these samples can be stored as the digital representa- tion of an instrument or sample. Musical instruments have a very complex harmonic and amplitude history during the performance of a single note. There are significant changes taking place throughout the note's performance. The success of a wavetable is based on the accuracy of the documentation of these changes. 1. A single wavecycle uses only one cycle of a sampled sound. A table of the relative amplitudes of the harmonic content of the sample sound is stored, and then computer software is used for digital reconstruction, repetition, and transposition. Software synthesizers generally use this process. Multiple wavecycles use more than one cycle of the sampled sound, allowing for a more realistic performance history of the early timbral changes. Sounds are held in read- only memory (ROM) of a sound card. Looping is still necessary to construct a performance note of reasonable length. 2.
