[Question] Digital additive sine wave synthesis from equations (self.musicproduction)

submitted 5 months ago by JohnDClay to c/[email protected]

Anyone have tips on digital additive synthesis? I'm looking to define a curve for the overtone series to follow and generate and combine sign waves from that. Looks like there is a way in Python?

Anyone have thoughts or experience with generating sounds in Python? Are there any artifacts I should watch out for? Is there an easier way to generate tones from equations for their overtone series? Thanks!

Thanks! I'll take a look. I also already have Max msp, so I'll see if I can do the same block structure there. I didn't see a nice way to have hundreds of oscillators in Max when I looked before, but emulating the block layout in that tutorial should help.
