Live-coding a Music Synthesizer

Ram Rachum

This is going to be a fun live-coding session using `numpy` and `sounddevice`.

The goal is to make the computer play music that sounds close to a real piano, using nothing but math.

We’ll start with creating a simple sound using a sine wave. We’ll gradually make it sound more like a real instrument, learning a little bit about music theory on the way. We’ll add features one-by-one until by the end of the talk, we’ll hear our synthesizer play a piece of classical music.

All the code will be written live on stage.

ATTENTION: the event takes place on a Friday instead of the usual Wednesday!

You can find the evening's program in our wiki (https://pyug.at/Treffen/2020-02).
