Description
Acoustic piano simulation by subtractive synthesis
  • While programming my first library I ran into the need to have an acoustic piano sound. Since I don't have a real piano to sample, I decided to synthesize it from scratch using "traditional" subtractive synthesis technique. This is my first good result and has been achived only by using basic oscillators, filters and so on. The only downside is the limited polyphony due to heavy CPU usage so I sampled almost every key and mapped them into a sampler in order to make this sound more usable.
