Maximilian: C++ Audio and Music DSP Library - Mick Grierson - JUCE Summit 2015

Maximilian: C++ Audio and Music DSP Library - Mick Grierson - JUCE Summit 2015 Abstract: This talk presents the Maximilian C++ Audio and Music DSP Library. Maximilian is an open source, MIT licensed C++ audio synthesis library with minimal dependencies - all you need to provide is an audio buffer loop. Maximilian is designed to be cross platform, simple to learn and simple to use. The syntax and program structure are based on the popular ‘Processing’ environment, but in C++. Maximilian provides standard waveforms, envelopes, sample playback / looping / recording, resonant filters, audio effects, timing systems, delay lines, equal power stereo, quadraphonic and 8-channel ambisonic spatialisation, granular synthesisers, polyphonic synthesisers with timestretching, FFT processing and a range of Music Information Retrieval / feature processing tools. It also has a collection of experimental audio synthesis and signal processing features. It's cross-platform compatible with MacOS, Windows, Linux, IOS and Android systems. In addition, an emscripten asm.js JavaScript port is underway and will be released by spring 2016.
