Tarkvarasüntesaator refers to a software synthesizer. It is a computer program designed to generate audio signals, much like a hardware synthesizer. Instead of physical circuits and oscillators, a software synthesizer uses algorithms and digital signal processing to create sounds. These programs can emulate the behavior of classic analog synthesizers, digital synthesizers, or create entirely new sonic textures.

Software synthesizers offer a high degree of flexibility and creative potential. They can be manipulated through various parameters, including waveform shape, frequency, amplitude, filtering, and modulation. Many software synthesizers are virtual instruments that can be played using a MIDI keyboard or sequenced within a digital audio workstation (DAW). They are an integral part of modern music production, allowing musicians and sound designers to access a vast array of sounds without the expense and space requirements of hardware.

Common types of software synthesizers include subtractive, additive, FM (frequency modulation), wavetable, and granular synthesizers, each employing different methods of sound generation. The accessibility and power of software synthesizers have democratized sound creation, making sophisticated audio manipulation available to a wide range of users.
