The Ultimate Reference for Sound Design

An indispensable sourcebook for mastering the musical possibilities of synthesizers

It's a jungle out there!

Dozens of manufacturers are building hardware and software synthesizers — there are hundreds of models to choose from, most of them packed with features. All too often, the manual not only fails to explain high-end esoteric options, but falls short when covering the basics of synthesis and sound design.

Power Tools for Synthesizer Programming cuts through the jungle of confusion. This authoritative book will give you the information you need to make better music with your electronic instruments — with fewer headaches and less wasted time and effort.

Power Tools for Synthesizer Programming includes essential information on:

The nature of digital sound
Oscillator sync
Envelope generator modes
The uses of white noise
Types of resonant filters
Modulation routings
Types of effects
Using memory for storing presets
