The Fundamentals of Synthesizer Programming Joseph Akins

The Fundamentals of Synthesizer Programming provides an introduction on

how to program a synthesizer for creating music in the studio and on stage. Used as a textbook for the

introductory electronic music course at the Department of Recording Industry at Middle Tennessee State

University, it covers the components and controls, of both hardware and software synthesizers, that are

used to create a patch on a typical synth. Concepts are explained thoroughly with block diagramming, and

practical examples are given with Reason Studios Subtractor and a Moog Voyager.
