Open Source Sound Synthesis Software

A multi-platform software synthesiser emulating (somewhat inaccurately) pre-GM MIDI devices such as the Roland MT-32, CM-32L, CM-64 and LAPC-I. In no way endorsed by or affiliated with Roland Corp. Source hosted at: http://www.github.com/munt/

eGuideDog project develops free software for the blind. Currently, we focus on WebSpeech, Ekho TTS and WebAnywhere.

The Pure Data (short Pd) project on SourceForge unifies the extensions (or externals) written for the Pure Data Graphical Computer Music System written by Miller Puckette with contributions from many others.

Frinika is a free, complete music workstation software for Linux, Windows, Mac OSX and other operating systems running Java. It features sequencer, soft-synths, realtime effects and audio recording.

Triceratops is an analogue style polyphonic subtractive synthesizer plugin, for use with the LV2 plug architecture, at this time there is no standalone version. An up to date version of the LV2 library is required along with a suitable host (e.g. Qtractor, Jalv, Ardour), I highly recommend either the KXstudio distro or the KXstudio ubuntu repositories! The intention is for this synth to be part of a suite including a drum machine (Stegosaurus) and a wavetable synth (Dracorex), watch this space.

jVSTwRapper allows you to develop VST (2.4), Audio Unit (AU) and LADSPA compatible audio plugins and virtual instruments plus user interfaces (Swing) with the Java programming language on Windows, Linux and Mac OSX. 5 demo plugins (+src) are included.

OSW is a graphical programming environment for real-time music and audio applications. Users connect objects called transforms to form programs called patches. OSW currently runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and SGI platforms.

CP-GFX is simply a Cross Platform Guitar Effect Processor. The aim of the project is to create an extensible and easy to use program which is easy to port to different platforms an operating systems.

Epulse is a signal generator that can produce pulses, sine, triangular and rectangular waves with an unlimited level of modulations. It can be used in electronics to create test signals, or to make simple audio effects.

Epos is a language independent rule-driven Text-to-Speech (TTS) system primarily designed to serve as a research tool. Epos is (or tries to be) independent of the language processed, linguistic description method, and computing environment.

jMax is a visual programming environment for building interactive real-time musical and multimedia applications.

Application which detects musical notes from the microphone. It allows listening to the microphone and play the detected notes to output (in midi). Multilanguage support. Zoom Dark mode option JDK-17 compatibility With v1.2 it includes a pitch shifter (making voice lower or sharper through a slider) There is a demo video which shows how it works (the demo video can be visited from Help menu of the application) You can also see the pitch-shifter demo version here: https://frojasg1.com:8443/resource_counter/resourceCounter?operation=countAndForward&url=https%3A%2F%2Ffrojasg1.com%2Fdemos%2Faplicaciones%2FInstrumentalMusic%2Fpitch.shifter.mp4%3Forigin%3Dsourceforge&origin=web

Csound is a sound and music synthesis system, providing facilities for composition and performance over a wide range of platforms. It is not restricted to any style of music, having been used for many years in at least classical, pop, techno, ambient. Csound is now hosted at https://github.com/csound Binary and source-code releases: http://csound.github.io/download.html Mailing lists are hosted by HEAnet at https://listserv.heanet.ie/cgi-bin/wa?A0=CSOUND and https://listserv.heanet.ie/cgi-bin/wa?A0=CSOUND-DEV Archives: mail lists at http://dream.cs.bath.ac.uk/Csound-archive releases: http://dream.cs.bath.ac.uk/Csound-archive/OldReleases/

Compresses music from 1/50th to 1/100th its original size by removing dissonant parts of sound and also optimizes it for lower speaker-stress, dynamic equalization (2-3 times less hearing stress at high volume), non-compression modes and much more.

Cross-platform audio engine that implements features necessary for basic audio processing such as file loading/saving, audio mixing, sample/bit rate conversion, audio mixing/chaining, effects processing and some simple DSP operations. Still under develo

A XFig based rapid prototype yeilding a melody line generation tool which lets you plot the pitch, volume and generic waveform sound. You can hear a piece of music, grab and plot the synth then create your own melody lines with the same synth. sound ....

MunichCodeBrewery is a project for developing sound plugins via the jVstWrapper interface, which is also hosted on SourceForge. It combines the ease and elegance of Java programming with the power of VST.

musicomp is a program which most important element is an evolutionary algorithm which uses data mining methods as a fitness function to generate monophone melodies.

A suite of professional real-time audio editing tools

A C++ library and Python module for audio synthesis featuring dynamic digital filters. Nsound lets you easily shape waveforms and write to disk or plot them. Nsound aims to be as powerful as Csound but easy to use.

Octavia is a music description language that reads a text file and converts to midi. It also provides the full power of python interpreter.

A modular audio programming language, designed to write applications quickly. Its main goal is real time audio processing, but it should be used for any kind of development.

Partita is a sound synthesis software based on ZynAddSubFX. Apart an entirely redesigned GUI it offers new functionalities: extended MIDI control and higher degree of abstraction for managing instruments (sounds) creation.

The project is about porting selected (open source) music-, and audio software to latest compilers and platforms...
