  • Workshop: Exploring Percussion Synthesis and Rhythm Generation in Python

    09:30 - 12:30 UTC | Monday 11th November 2024 | SS Great Britain
    Beginner
    Intermediate

    In this hands-on workshop, we'll start from the principles of percussion synthesis, and progress to building a fully-fledged synthesised drum kit, using Python, Jupyter notebooks, and the SignalFlow DSP framework. We will give an overview of how SignalFlow and Python notebooks can be used to interactively explore DSP algorithms, illustrating different approaches to percussion synthesis from vintage Roland drum machines to physical modelling methods. Once we've implemented each drum in our virtual kit, we'll look at approaches to sequencing and pattern generation, including generative techniques to add complexity and variety. The workshop will cover: Setting up Visual Studio Code for interactive Python […]
