best library for synthesizing sound
Mar 26th, 2010, 4:38pm
 
I'm new to processing, and I've been looking into programming a synthesizer. I've messed around with minim and I created a simple sequencer and an amplitude envelope for it, i was wondering if there were any better libraries for synthesizing sounds and what not.

any help is appreciated.

I don't know if this will help or answer your question, but when it comes to synthesizers and synthesizing sound, you can check out Fruity Loops. I'm also trying to learn the software but I have a friend who works on it like it's a baby's plaything!  I mean, if you can't find libraries for synthesizing sound, why not make them your own? That's what I'm trying to learn now. Hope this suggestion helps.

To be honest the best one to use is probably Super Collider bridge. SuperCollider is a sound synthesis and analisys language that has huge possibilities, great performance and is really one of the best sound programming environments. There's a library to bridge Processing with SC3 and SC3 works on client-server architecture using OSC for communication which means you can use processing OSC library to communicate with it as well.
