“Once again text & parenthesis – sound synthesis with Foo”
No full textFoo is a sound synthesis tool based on the Scheme language, a clean and powerful Lisp dialect. Foo is used for high-quality non-realtime sound synthesis and-processing. By scripting Foo like a shell it is also a neat tool for implementing common tasks like soundfile conversion, resampling, multichannel extraction etc. Note: According to the talk at the Linux Audio Conference, this text will mainly cover the Foo kernel layer. This is because the main author of this text, Martin Rumori, is mostly involved with porting and developing the Foo kernel. Quotation from [5]: Whereas the Foo kernel layer implements the generic sound synthesis and processing modules as well as a patch description and execution language, the Foo control layer offers a symbolic interface to the kernel and implements musically salient control abstractions. Find out more about the Foo control layer in [4] and [5] and the Foo control layer’s source code at [1].
