The Universal Polyphonic Player (short UPP) is an infrastructure for all kinds of polyphonic events – be it note-like events, other generated sounds or short grains in granular synthesis. The strengths of the system are a modular, easily extendible design, almost unlimited polyphony, ease of control, DSP load scaling and sample-accurate timing. | |||
This workshop presents a general framework for playing polyphonic events, be it sample-based (granular) playback or generative audio synthesis. The method is purely patcher based, no specific knowledge is required. | |||
The focus of the workshop will be on the implementation of the technique and on various practical use-cases, e.g. MIDI-note-style synthesis, types of granular synthesis and others. | The focus of the workshop will be on the implementation of the technique and on various practical use-cases, e.g. MIDI-note-style synthesis, types of granular synthesis and others. | ||
Once understood, this framework can serve as a swiss-army knife for everyday digital musicking tasks. | |||
