Open Source Python Sound Synthesis Software

Convert text to International Morse Code. Input is ASCII text. Output can be: - . -..- - on the console, raw 8bit PCM suitable for piping to /dev/audio, .wav files or even (mp3|ogg). Good for headlines on your MP3 player or code practice.

A SoundFont editor and other software for editing, managing and sharing sample based MIDI instrument files for computer music composition. Support for other formats is planned.

FluidPatcher is a performance-oriented interface for FluidSynth built using wxpython to create a simple GUI that allows live editing, selecting, and playing of patches. A patch is a collection of settings such as soundfont presets for each MIDI channel, control-change/sysex messages to send when the patch is selected, and midi router or effects settings. Groups of patches are stored in banks, which are saved as human-readable and -editable YAML files. This allows a musician to easily create complex combinations of synthesizer settings ahead of time and switch between them on the fly during a performance.

Loris is a library for sound analysis, synthesis, and morphing, developed by Kelly Fitz and Lippold Haken at the CERL Sound Group. Loris includes a C++ class library, Python module, C-linkable interface, command line utilities, and documentation.

Steel is a cross-platform package for using common text-to-speech (speech synthesis) engines in Python. Steel currently supports the following TTS software: - Microsoft Speech API 5 (SAPI5) - eSpeak - NS Speech Synthesis - FreeTTS Documentation: http://sourceforge.net/p/steeltts/wiki/ Bug Tracker: http://sourceforge.net/p/steeltts/tickets/ If you are interested in contributing to the Steel TTS codebase, or would like to make a feature-request, please contact the lead developer, Jasper Danielson, at jrd4@rice.edu.

The MusicKit & SndKit is an object-oriented software system for building music, sound, signal processing & MIDI applications. The distribution is a comprehensive package that includes on-line documentation, code examples, utilities, applications & scores

The purpose of the program is to convert a color to a waveform you can use as a synthesizer oscillator inside a DAW such as FL Studio from Image Line. Many synths are provided with an option to load your own waveform, to replace the basic saw, square and sine waveforms commonly used to create synth sounds. The waveform generated by the program will correspond to the subliminal synesthetic sensation of the selected color. You can create your own synth presets to use in a track using color as a base.

SilenceVST is an extensible, open-source language for programming music and sound on Windows. SilenceVST consists of a set of Python extensions and a custom Python shell that runs either standalone, or as a VST plugin.

Function graph drawing/rendering application for use with audio applications. Exports .wav files. Dependencies: wxPython & Numeric(not in 1.10)

AudiOpen is a framework and GUI for audio synthesis, with the goal of developing an environment where obtaining the waveform you want is very intuitive by taking a very systematic/mathematical approach to defining audio and supporting Python scripts.

Cabel is a graphical user interface for building Csound instruments by patching modules similar to modular synthesizers. Cabel modules are defined in XML files, so anybody with some Csound knowledge can write his/her own modules and play with them.

Software for live sampling and audio processing. Algorithmic composition and improvised audio manipulation in real time. The audio engine uses Csound, and the composition logic is built with Python.

JackFX is a python module for midi control and realtime audio effects processing built using the Jack Audio Connection Kit. Effects are stackable, and can be chained in any configuration with only a few lines of python code.

Lightform is a complete music composition application in pre-alpha, written in python with a C backend. It's designed to have the capabilities of programs like Reaktor and Sonar, but with a simplified user interface using a python gui lib called tGUI.

A musician's live performance VST host. This software is intended to help integrate VST technology into your live performances on stage, whether it'd be using virtual instruments or effects, or to automate audio routing.

Moodtrack contains Python classes for music-emotion analysis and assembly, enabling users to build soundtracks based on emotion and timing. USERS: Music Supervisors/Composers/Producers, Game Audio Developers, Content Providers. FILM DEMO: moodtrack.tv

A C++ library and Python module for audio synthesis featuring dynamic digital filters. Nsound lets you easily shape waveforms and write to disk or plot them. Nsound aims to be as powerful as Csound but easy to use.

Nusq is a cross-platform modular music sequencer, intended to be sufficiently expandable, flexible and configurable for the technically-minded musician while still being accessible to the rest of us.

Octavia is a music description language that reads a text file and converts to midi. It also provides the full power of python interpreter.

A Python/GTK simulation of the Theremin musical instrument.

A modular audio programming language, designed to write applications quickly. Its main goal is real time audio processing, but it should be used for any kind of development.

A Python interface to Microsoft's DirectSound8 SDK

Pyo Synth is an open source application that makes the manipulation of pyo scripts easier by letting you control it with a midi keyboard. The interface allows you to setup every control on your keyboard and link them to parameters in your script during runtime. It is also possible to save your progress directly in the pyo script. See manual for more explanation on features.

STASS stands for Sound Treatment, Analysis and Synthesis Software. It will provide ingeneers and searchers easy-to-use as well as performant tools for sound analysis (spectro, sona and so on), treatment (filters, noise-gate) and synthesis (scepstrum).

Schnolgo is a multi-format musical composition package written in Python. It is built with an extremely flexible system for representing rhythmic structures and is intended to allow for songs to be written so as to make use of "guided improvisation".
