This paper presents the prototype of a new virtual synthesizer characterized by the idea of generating pitched and non-pitched sounds starting from white noise only, and manipulating it in different ways, such as subtractive and waveshaping techniques. The possible outcomes cover a palette of intentionally "low quality" sounds and textures, that are meant to be used in sound design scenarios, acusmatic compositions, or simply as original elements in pop songs. The synthesizer is implemented as a VST instrument plugin using the JUCE C++ framework.

Abstract

This paper presents the prototype of a new virtual synthesizer characterized by the idea of generating pitched and non-pitched sounds starting from white noise only, and manipulating it in different ways, such as subtractive and waveshaping techniques. The possible outcomes cover a palette of intentionally "low quality" sounds and textures, that are meant to be used in sound design scenarios, acusmatic compositions, or simply as original elements in pop songs. The synthesizer is implemented as a VST instrument plugin using the JUCE C++ framework.
