Soc. 21 (7), 526-534.}, abstract = {A new application of the well-known process of frequency modulation is shown to result in a surprising control of audio spectra. The technique provides a means of great simplicity to control the spectral components and their evolution in time. Such dynamic spectra are diverse in their subjective impressions and include sounds both known and unknown.}, keywords = {dynamic spectra, FM synthesis, frequency modulation synthesis}, author = {John Chowning} }
