How To Read Scientific DSP Publications and Turn Them Into Code - Making Sense of Academic Papers and Patents for People Who Are Not Academics or Patent Lawyers - Matthijs Hollemans - ADC 2024
---

Academic research papers contain exciting new ideas but typically no ready-to-use source code. Papers are not written for the layperson and are often filled with jargon and inscrutable equations. It's up to the reader to decipher the math and wrestle through dense theory to transform these ideas into C++ code. This can be a daunting task, especially for developers who do not have an academic or mathematics background. Patents, in particular expired ones, are also a great source of ideas and are even harder to untangle! Fortunately, with a little effort you can learn to read these perplexing documents and extract their secrets. This talk aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice and will show useful techniques for quickly making sense of scientific publications and patents, so that you can finally start turning them into code.

Writing Correct C++ GUI Code: Bug-Free JUCE UI – Jan Wilczek – ADC 2024

https://audio.dev/ -- @audiodevcon​
---

Writing Correct C++ GUI Code: Bug-Free JUCE UI - Jan Wilczek - ADC 2024
---

Do you want to:

- Build large-scale and small-scale applications with graphical user interfaces for clients?
- Confidently design your app’s UI architecture using a structured approach?
- Ensure your app is bug-free also in the UI code without laborous manual testing?

How many times have you opened your JUCE GUI app only to find something isn’t working?

How many times have you ended up with too much logic in your Component classes?

And how many times were you scared to start a new project because of the perceived size of the app and lack of confidence in how to design it or start coding?

Graphical user interfaces often suffer from testability problems and thus require a lot of manual testing. How can we overcome this issue? One approach is automated testing with sophisticated GUI analysis tools. However, an easier solution has largely been ignored by JUCE developers: the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern, which has been successful in frameworks like Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Android development.

What will you learn from this talk?
- The differences between modern GUI architectures (MVC, MVP, MVVM).
- How to design your GUI app architecture for scalability and maintainability.
- How to reduce development time, costs, and stress by leveraging the power of the MVVM pattern in JUCE apps for clean and testable GUIs.
- How to effortlessly test your GUIs in an automated way without even launching your app.
- How to handle multithreading issues when interacting with GUI code.

Who is this talk for?
- Mostly mid and senior JUCE developers.
- Junior developers can benefit from learning about the scope of the problem and possible solutions.

The talk draws heavily on JUCE concepts, so it may be somewhat challenging for those completely new to the JUCE C++ framework.

The talk will include real-world examples, a step-by-step guide, and additional helpful references for future self-study.

Using JavaScript to Render a DAW User Interface at 60 FPS – Arthur Carabott – ADC 2024

https://audio.dev/ -- @audiodevcon​

Using JavaScript to Render a DAW User Interface at 60 FPS - Arthur Carabott - ADC 2024
---

No one likes unresponsive user interfaces, least of all musicians. WebViews are an increasingly common choice for building UIs because of their increased developer productivity, ability to meet the demands of graphic designers, and enormous ecosystem of UI libraries. But when done wrong, they can easily become slow and resource hungry, which is bad for both users and developers.

This talk covers patterns and best practices for creating user interfaces using both the DOM and 2D Canvas API (which is more suitable for custom interactions and graphically demanding tasks). These techniques will be discussed via a real-world case study: a DAW user interface (zoomable waveforms and all) at 60 FPS.

Aimed at all developers new to the web, demonstrations use vanilla TypeScript (no frameworks!) to teach the techniques from first principles, and to have a type system that will make C++ developers feel at home.

Mind-Matched Audio - Revolutionizing the Reading Experience through Real-Time Sound Synchronization - Luigi Cosi - ADC 2024
---

Step into the future of digital reading, where sound and text intertwine to transform stories into an immersive auditory adventure. This talk explores how synchronizing audio with the cognitive reading process creates a revolutionary experience. We leverage eye-tracking technology, sophisticated algorithms, and real-time audio processing to determine the optimal timing for soundscapes that synchronize with the reader's imagination, enhancing engagement. Learn about our journey of inventing a digital audio workstation (DAW) tailored specifically for the reading experience—something that previously did not exist. This foundational DAW lays the groundwork for how such a tool would look like for this purpose, allowing audio to be triggered dynamically based on the reader's pace and imagination, overcoming challenges in audio production, from creating flexible assets to ensuring continuity for non-linear reading. Our experiments show how well-timed audio cues can reduce gaze duration by 63%, enhancing both speed and comprehension. We’ll also explore future possibilities using machine learning to generate adaptive soundscapes. Join us for a live demonstration and discover how this innovation could transform reading, opening new possibilities for e-books, journalism, and beyond.

Can Audio Programming be Safe? – Dave Rowland – ADC 2024

https://audio.dev/ -- @audiodevcon​

Can Audio Programming be Safe? - Dave Rowland - ADC 2024
---

Safety is an increasingly discussed topic in relation to programming and often little or misunderstood. With organisations like the NSA and NIST recommending developers move away from memory unsafe languages (such as C and C++), there is a lot of uncertainty in the air about what this means for current programming practices. With a focus on the audio industry, are we even exposed to any of these risks?

In this talk we look at the different types of safety, including memory and functional safety, and how these relate to security. We see what risks we might be exposed to and the current strategies for mitigating them.

We then look into what possible alternatives to “memory unsafe languages” there are, why they are safer and if they are suitable for audio use. Should we all be migrating to Rust, Hylo, Swift or Cmajor? What can we learn from the approach these languages take?

Finally we look at existing tooling such as static analysers and sanitizers and see if these provide any safety nets for memory unsafe languages. What is the most pragmatic approach to audio development with one eye on the future landscape.

Our Ultra-Processed Interfaces – What Music Technology Can Learn From Doritos – Astrid Bin – ADC 2024

https://audio.dev/ -- @audiodevcon​

Our Ultra-Processed Interfaces - What Music Technology Can Learn From Doritos - Astrid Bin - ADC 2024
---

Many digital musical instruments, both commercial and otherwise, share similar interface design characteristics like rectangular rubber pads, piano interfaces, sliders, and grids of controls. These conventions are useful, but where do they come from, and why are they so ubiquitous?

In this talk I dive deep into how the design conventions of music interfaces have evolved, and how traditionally they're deeply rooted in the culture in which they're created ... until recently. I discuss how this decoupling of musical interfaces from cultural context has developed alongside the larger contemporary trend of "ultra-processing", a way of creating consumable products, from food to media to devices, that are engineered for maximum consumption. I describe how this idea of ultra-processing can be observed in digital musical interfaces, as well as the larger social, economic, and cultural effects of ultra-processing on our musical outputs. Along with a historical and theoretical perspective on interface design, this talk discusses ways that we might adopt an informed and critical standpoint when creating interfaces for ourselves, and for others.

Challenges in Real-Time Physical Modelling for Sound Synthesis - Silvin Willemsen - ADC 2024
---

Although the field of physical modelling for sound synthesis goes back to the early 60s, real-time implementation of complex physical models has only recently become possible. During my research in the in the real-time physical modelling field over the last couple of years, I learned a few lessons I would like to share in this talk. Furthermore, drawing from my experience gained during the development of Atoms, a physical modelling synthesiser I developed for BABY Audio, this talk will address the main challenges of physical modelling in real-time audio plugins (or at least, those that I encountered). The presentation will include with some tips and tricks for developing physical modelling plugins using JUCE, as well as what to expect from the end-users when releasing a physical modelling plugin.
