Generate buzz with realtime FM audio synthesis
summary
Real time FM audio synthesis implemented in pure Python now runs live: MIDI in → Python generator voices → miniaudio playback → BlackHole virtual driver → Ableton Live recording. Uses wavetable sine with nearest‑neighbor hopping (causes aliasing), attack‑decay envelopes, polyphony, and a 3‑operator FM engine with five algorithms that mimic DX7/Korg behavior. Demo reproduces 80s FM timbres, built patch sounds work and are recorded; full code and examples live on GitHub.
