Multi-platform open-source library of audio and modulation tools that focus on synthesis, live electronic music, interconnection, probability, unique sounds, and intuitive interfacing built by Akunull in Pure Data starting in 2014.
Basic Pure Data
Basic electronic music concepts
See intro.pd in root folder or watch the intro video. You must have the objects in plate.pd to use the library.
Vanilla only patches without expr(~) editable in pd
Syntactic sugar to make Pure Data programming more efficient
Several ways to make complex rhythms and a global clock to guide it
A save and load system with preset management
A way to handle per voice modulation for synthesizers
Unique modulators for control
Tools for generative design
Model-(View)-Controller programming architecture
An assortment of synths and audio effects capable of some classic sounds and many strange ones
Readable, encapsulated code with intuitive interfacing and ease of use in mind
Simple code, commenting, and intro tutorial instead of help files
Portability through naming conventions and no externals
