AbstractA combination of hybrid sampling and wavetable synthesis for matching acoustic instruments is demonstrated using genetic algorithm optimization. Tone sampling is used for the critical attack portion and wavetable synthesis is used to match the more gradually changing sustain and decay. A hybrid sampling wavetable performs a smooth crossfade transition. This method has been used to synthesize piano, harp, glockenspiel, and temple block tones.

AbstractMusical sounds can be efficiently synthesized using an automatic genetic algorithm to decompose musical instrument tones into group synthesis parameters. By separating the data into individual matrices, a high degree of data compression with low computational cost is achieved.

Abstractwigout is a sound-synthesis program, written in C and running under Unix and 32-bit Intel systems. The premise of the program is to allow the composer to compose the waveform with which she composes. Thus, sound is not a building-block with which one composes, but the subject matter of composition. The composer defines a waveform state, consisting of an arbitrary number of segments. Each segment is similar to (but not identical with) 1) a sine wave; 2) a square wave; 3) a triangle wave; or 4) a sawtooth wave. The composer stipulates the duration for which the sound is to last, and then the waveform state (which is on the order of a few milliseconds long) is iterated until the desired duration is reached. Upon each iteration, each segment changes itself by a specified amount. The resulting sound is the result of many independent changes in the waveform's segments. Up till now, five compositions have been written using wigout, for tape alone, and for tape and performers.
