ABSTRACT
In this chapter we will focus on audio synthesis techniques that we will realise with Pyo. We will cover basic techniques and concepts in digital audio, and we will discuss about certain intricacies of this domain. The approach taken in this chapter does not require a mathematical background. For the more maths-inclined readers, more details on certain techniques, like Ring Modulation, Frequency Modulation, Fast Fourier Transform, and others, can be found in the legendary Computer Music Tutorial by Curtis Roads. Even if you are advanced in digital audio, you are encouraged to read through this chapter, as we will be focusing on the way Pyo creates sound through its various classes and their methods.
