Vibrato Simulation
Vibrato can be simulated by modulating the frequency (
) of a “carrier” oscillator at a rate (
) of about 5-10 Hz, as diagrammed below.

The vibrato width or depth,
, should be about 1–2% of
.
The characteristics of natural vibrato generally change over the course of a musical tone.
