| | Wind Instruments: Some Basics |
 | | Occasionally brass instruments are not made of metal at all; for example, the sousaphone, a tuba used in marching bands, is often made of (lighter-weight) fiberglass. |  | | The properties of this standing sound wave inside the instrument are what give the sound its pitch, its dynamic level (loudness or softness), its harmonics, and its timbre (color). |  | | This can cause a bubbling sound in the tone. |

 | | Wind control of synthesizers allows musical phrasing and articulation similar to what is obtained with acoustic wind instruments. |  | | However, rather than producing musical sounds directly, it produces electrical signals that are used to control an electronic-music sound generator. |  | | A "wind controller" is a hybrid instrument that is "played" like a traditional musical wind instrument, i.e., it is blown and fingered like a brass or woodwind instrument. |
