Spanish term or phrase: modificadores de onda eléctrica retroalimentada
This is talking about a Minimoog, the early analogue versions from the 60s-70s, not later version. I have a feeling the author made this up based on his/her understanding of how the synth works. It may be talking about a voltage controlled oscillator in a a phase-locked loop, but that's all Chinese to me.

PS - It's for a grade school level textbook. So it should not be too technical, just general but accurate information.
TIA!!

Es un instrumento analógico ya que genera vibraciones eléctricas a partir de una serie de componentes electrónicos. Su sonido se basa en la variación de tres osciladores (modificadores de onda eléctrica retroalimentada). También añadió a su invento una serie de filtros y envolventes que acabarían de ofrecer unas prestaciones sonoras sin precedentes.

Rough draft
The Minimoog is an analogue instrument, which means it uses a set of electronic components to generate electrical vibrations.

Explanation:
Basically, an oscillator circuit is an amplifier that provides itself (through feedback) with an imput signal.
Also, as far as I know, there is not such thing as an "electric vibration" or "electric wave". The correct term should be (electric) current.

The Minimoog is an analog musical instrument, which means it uses a set of electronic components to produce an electric signal in the form of vibration. It's sound is the result of the vibration of three oscillators, or dc-to-ac current converters.
