DESCRIPTION:
You will learn synthesizer operation, starting with the underlying theory of each synthesizer component, and moving on to the theory of how these components combine to form fully working musical instruments that function on a variety of target digital audio workstations (DAWs). The book is broken into three parts: plug-in programming, theory and design of the central synthesizer components of oscillators, envelope generators, and filters, and the design and implementation of six complete polyphonic software synthesizer musical instruments, which can be played in real time. In addition to the software, it features bonus projects, application notes, and video tutorials. Bridging the gap from theory to programming, Designing Software Synthesizer Plug-Ins in C++ For RackAFX, VST3 and Audio Units contains complete code for designing and implementing software synthesizers for both Windows and Mac platforms. Containing some of the latest advances in theory and algorithm development, this book contains information that has never been published in textbook form, including several unique algorithms of the author’s own desig
My favorite computer programming book of all time! duck cover As the title suggest, this book is about writing Software Synthesizers in C++, so this really implies that this book is not for the weak hearted only from reading the title. So far for the other review, only giving it 3 stars, it's completely useless and has absolutely nothing to do with what this book is about in the first place, and does not assess the quality of the writings in any way.This book is a god send for me, I have been waiting for this for many years! I am only half through so far (will update t. "Great Book for Learning, Reference, or Just Straight Up Code" according to Scott Burgess. In addition to explaining the theory and practice behind each part of a synthesizer (filters, oscillators, envelope generators, etc), the author provides the math formulae, DSP theory, extensive graphs and diagrams, AND source code, if that isn't clear enough.From there, the book creates Great Book for Learning, Reference, or Just Straight Up Code Scott Burgess In addition to explaining the theory and practice behind each part of a synthesizer (filters, oscillators, envelope generators, etc), the author provides the math formulae, DSP theory, extensive graphs and diagrams, AND source code, if that isn't clear enough.From there, the book creates 4 kinds of software synths: virtual analog, wavetable, FM, and sample playback.This might not be an ideal book if you have never tinkered with audio code or C++. But if you know the basics, this will absolutely set you on th. kinds of software synths: virtual analog, wavetable, FM, and sample playback.This might not be an ideal book if you have never tinkered with audio code or C++. But if you know the basics, this will absolutely set you on th. Marek said Five Stars. excellent!
