Harmonikit
summary
Harmonikit is a working additive synth written in Clojure that sends OSC to SuperCollider using Overtone and core.async, is on GitHub, and plays live. It models sound with a single master envelope (delay/attack/decay/sustain/fade/release), an LFO, four tunable resonances and a sine-bank; the engine uses additive synthesizer techniques and mixes 100 harmonics 24 controllable via a Lemur iPad and a QNexus MIDI device. The demo runs and is usable for multi-voice patches.
