Open Source ChromeOS Sound Synthesis Software

A unique desktop music composing application for PC/Mac/Linux/Android with a tracker style interface and a simple modular Java plugin based design allowing rapid improvement and endless expansion.

BUZZle means Buzz Logic Enhanced and has neither to to with Buzzle.com or the Buzzle-Game. BUZZle is a free (non-commercial) modular music composing and sequencing tool. It is a completely re-written version of the famous Jeskola Buzz.

The Tibetan and Himalayan Library has several open-sourced tools for inputting, manipulating, translating, and transcribing Tibetan-language text, audio, and video. We aim to make using a computer easier for Himalayan peoples and scholars.

Portable command line utility for encoding and recording audio signals (chirps) to set the speed, incline, and resistance functions of iFit technology equipped exercise machines. Writes generated settings signals to music file format.

Schnolgo is a multi-format musical composition package written in Python. It is built with an extremely flexible system for representing rhythmic structures and is intended to allow for songs to be written so as to make use of "guided improvisation".

Allegory is a tool for electronic music. It consists of a small library of Haskell definitions that can be used to create, explore, and refine developmental/variation relationships between diverse sound materials. Csound required as realisation engine.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) evolves musical instruments you play with the mouse from small blocks of Java code that operate on numbers, each block designed to keep all numbers in range -1 to 1 if they started in that range, and combinations of these evolved codes running 44100 times per second for high quality 44.1 khz audio. You can also write the Java code into its window. Uses Javassist internal compiler on the new Java code assembled by renaming variables to overlap eachother and reordering, copying, and removing blocks of code. Listen to the recorded music in files section of sourceforge or try it for yourself. This branched into my other projects: GigaLineCompile, JSelfModify, JSoundCard, and Human AI Net as I got more into the AI and systems side of things and explored vision research as a better user interface to network minds together through the Internet. Someday I will bring it all together in a shared space on the Internet.

The Freebase MIDI Sequencer is a cross platform MIDI sequencer written in Java.

JMusicMaker is an open-source, java based application for dynamically arranging instruments and signal processors inorder to compose music. It is based on an extremelly modular design to allow for easy modification and creation of user-made instrumen

JeSpeak is a Java library that bridges eSpeak, which is a compact open source software speech synthesizer. JeSpeak uses JNI to make native call to libespeak.

Musica is a sound and music synthesis package for Mathematica, providing advanced facilities for composition, analysis and playback.

NoiseComp is a Java synthesizer build to calculate realtime sound synthesis. With a graphically editor one can connect the inputs and outputs of sound generators on a timeline.

A software music synthesizer inspired by 8-bit Atari Softsynth. It can import, edit and play Atari Softsynth tunes on PC. You can write your music in BASIC-like language and create your instruments with graphic editor. Now available for Raspberry Pi 2

Modular synthesizer/effect designer and interpreter. Similar to Max/MSP and Reaktor.

A tiny web app enabling MIDI synthesis of tin whistle alphabetic tablature.

digui is a pitch-controlled, digital additive synthesizer. No MIDI needed! Just plug in your guitar, toy keyboard, microphone, etc. and play away.

...is an interactive sampler backend (GPLv3), plays ogg-vorbis-samples to sound device, sample rate conversion, channel abstraction, controlled via stdin/out, on demand decompression, easy understandable source. Targets: *nix and win32 via cygwin.

nemosomen is a framework for designing open source, network based, multimedia (video/openGL/sound/MIDI) realtime toys a suite of tools for distributed development, processing of media. It tries to shift most of the working process in realtime processes.

xSonify is a Java-based sonification data analysis prototype for displaying science data as sounds, with an emphasis on supporting visually-impaired researchers.

Nonlinearly change frequencies and echos for live music by CPU. I found a way to normalize 1d wavefunction amplitude so this hack and its random heat vibrations are still unitary, even while microphone vibrating adds energy to part of 1d string of position and speed scalar arrays. The sparse part is, while the arrays are perfectly dense and linear, time is sparse when some springs vibrate with a larger multiplier of position subtracted from speed. In other words, this hack is a quanta level discontinuous field but in theory may be continuous as change in natural resonance frequency (what part of the "guitar string" would vibrate as if nothing acted on it) These few kilobytes of java code, many versions of CochleaSim.java and JSoundCard0.5 as an easily replaced dependency that reads microphone and writes to speakers as numbers ranging -1 to 1 44100 times per second, which is where SparseDoppler hooks in its array, microphone at one end and speakers hear the sum of the whole string.
