  • Analogue synthesiser

    Analogue synthesiser
    Analog synthesisers generate their sounds by manipulating electric voltages. ... The sound passes from the filter to the amplifier, which controls the volume of the sound. The amplifier generally includes a series of envelope controls, which help determine the nuances in volume level over the lifespan of a note. by using the analog circuits and signals this piece of equipment can generate sounds.
  • Radio

    Radio
    Radio is the technology of signaling and communicating using radio waves. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves of frequency between 30 hertz and 300 gigahertz. The transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves of radio frequency, especially those carrying sound messages.
  • Magnetic tape
