Hi, Envergure. I'm just a bit confused by your description of duophony. Wouldn't it be more correct to say that a duophonic synthesizer can produce two different notes simultaneously, because it has two independent oscillators? - Richard Cavell (talk) 02:46, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not sure I understand the difference between your suggestion and the description I used. It you want to fine-tune the wording, go ahead. I understand writing far less than I do synthesizers! It just has to be clear that a duophonic synth is not actually polyphonic (ie. having multiple copies of the synthesis circuitry). Now, this is the first page i've created. Having started it, am I its sole moderator or something? (just wondering 1. why you posted to my page instead of to talk:Duophony? and 2. why you tell me this instead if simply editing the page:) Please don't ban me for beeing such a n00bEnvergure (talk) 03:03, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe the problem is one of expression. I would say that a duophonic synthesizer is a polyphonic synthesizer that has only two oscillators. Perhaps the word 'polyphonic' should only be used, particularly in the present day, only to refer to those synths that can produce more than about 4 sounds at once.
- You're not the page's moderator, but I wanted to talk to you about the page before messing with it. I posted here rather than the talk page because I noticed that you were new here, and wasn't sure if you would check the talk page. I'll make some edits and you tell me whether you like them. - Richard Cavell (talk) 03:06, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
- Funny - I was just tweaking it and when I hit "preview" your changes were there.
- I think having "both" and "separately" together sounds awkward, but then I'm no English major. I think "independant" would be more accurate than "separate" because, although the oscillators can be pitched differently, they must sound simultaneously. One oscillator may not sound alone, unless of course the circuitry's been hacked.
Speedy deletion nomination of Yakety Sax Makes Everything Funny
edit
You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.
A tag has been placed on Yakety Sax Makes Everything Funny requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Singularity42 (talk) 01:14, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Immediately stop reverting Polyphony (instrument) / Please stop advertisement
editYou were completely rewriting the article, but it require discussion and agreement.
- Immediately stop reverting!
Note: Roland Jupiter-8 (1980/1981) is not notable on Polyphony (instrument), because it was historically not important (for other than Roland Corporation themselves), and slightly minor product (produced about 2,000).
- Please stop advertisement.

Bridge driver?
editIf you have a reliable source for an H bridge being called a bridge driver, you need to add that to the article to support the new terminology. And you like to inverter was ambiguous (it linked to a disambig page); and you probably don't want that in the lead paragraph. Try again? Dicklyon (talk) 01:12, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
