Sound synthesis is the technique of generating sound, using electronic hardware or software, from scratch. The most common use of synthesis is musical, where electronic instruments called synthesizers are used in the performance and recording of music. Sound synthesis has many applications both academic and artistic, and we commonly use synthesizers and synthesis methods to:

• Generate interesting and unique sounds or timbres incapable of being produced acoustically.
• Recreate or model the sounds of real-world acoustic instruments or sounds.
• Facilitate the automation of systems and processes (text-to-speech software, train station P.A.s)
