Fundamentals of Sound Synthesis with SuperCollider

This seminar will introduce the basics of realtime sound synthesis and will introduce participants to the SuperCollider language and architecture along the way. Attendees will learn about sound generators and processors as well as become acquainted with the implementation of synthesis techniques, mainly substractive and granular synthesis.

Level: Introductory

Note: All participants should come with their own laptop with the latest SuperCollider version available already installed (3.5.5).

Tutor: Stefan Kersten

Stefan Kersten works as a researcher and sound artist in Barcelona, where he is pursuing a Phd at Pompeu Fabra University’s Music Technology Group. His main research interests are the synthesis and analysis of sound textures and the computational modeling of soundscapes.
