How to Make a Noise: A Comprehensive Guide to Synthesizer Programming

How To Make A Noise is perhaps the most widely ready book about synthesizer sound programming. It is a comprehensive, practical guide to sound design and synthesizer programming techniques using:

• subtractive (analog) synthesis
• frequency modulation synthesis (including phase modulation and ring modulation)
• additive synthesis
• wave-sequencing
• sample-based synthesis

This book looks at programming using examples from six software synthesizers: Cameleon 5000 from Camel Audio, Rhino 2 from BigTick, Surge from Vember Audio, Vanguard from reFX, Wusikstation from Wusik dot com, and Z3TA+ from Cakewalk. Over 300 sound patches are created in the book: click here for further details of the patches.
