Aloe Synthesizer

Aloe Synthesizer is a comprehensive Rust library for simulating polyphonic sound synthesis. This crate allows the creation of sophisticated audio synthesis mechanisms using virtual instruments capable of playing sounds through MIDI note inputs. Leverage the power of Rust to produce harmonious audio renderings and simplify the development of software synthesizers.

Features

• SynthesizerSound: Define how specific MIDI notes and channels activate particular sounds.
• SynthesizerVoice: Manages individual notes being played, allowing instantaneous and simultaneous note handling.
• Comprehensive Audio Processing: Efficiently handle MIDI inputs and produce smooth, high-quality audio output.
• Dynamic Voice Allocation: Ability to add, remove, or retrieve sounds and voices dynamically.

Technical Details

A synth consists of multiple sounds and voices. Each SynthesizerSound describes the musical element, while a SynthesizerVoice is responsible for rendering the audio output. This design enables multiple voices to play the same sound concurrently, facilitating polyphonic sound production.

The SynthAudioSource is the central audio source managing MIDI events and synthesizer voices to produce audio content.

Usage

Start by implementing the SynthesizerSound to define sounds. Create a subclass of SynthesizerVoice for your sound rendering logic, then instantiate a Synthesizer and populate it with your voices and sounds.

let mut synth = Synthesizer::default();
let sound = SineWaveSound::default();
synth.add_sound(&Rc::new(RefCell::new(sound)));
