Hi everyone,
I am currently making an iPad/iPhone game, and I really want FM
synthesis for my sound effects. I thought I could get away with using
STK and Momu, but it turns out the library is completely incompatible
with iOS devices; when I try setup two voices and attempt to play
polyphony, the entire app freezes. I thought at first it was crashing
and could possibly debug it-- but it turns out it just slows down to the
point of not functioning at all... However if I just use one voice,
then it works perfectly fine-- unfortunately, that's not an option for
my app.. I need multiple voices.
Soooo... I am now looking at what it will take to build my own basic FM
synth that I can use in my app. I have very little (and by little, I
mean practically none) experience with DSP and programming audio, so I
really could use some resources that can help me get where I need to go
as quickly as possible.
I've searched the web for other open source FM projects that I might be
able to modify, but they all seem very complex and I just don't know how
I would integrate it into my app. Audio programming is something that
interests me a lot, unfortunately it also intimidates me a lot-- So I'd
love to take this challenge on and learn some great stuff, but it seems
like such a vast and complicated world, and I just don't even know where
to begin! Where is the "how to build your first programmable
soft-synthesizer for iOS" book??? It seems like resources like this
just don't exist, and only people with esoteric, magical knowledge can
pull this sort of thing off!
If anyone can give me some tips, tricks, pointers, etc. I'd greatly
appreciate it!
Thank you so much.
