Create a polyphonic synthesizer plug-in with RNBO
Taught by: Phelan Kane
What to expect in this workshop?
Build your own polyphonic synthesis device in RNBO via Max.
Export it for use as a virtual instrument plug-in (VST/AU).
What synthesis technique will be used?
You will combine two oscillators to build a subtractive synthesiser. Made more interesting with an envelope generator and a lowpass filer.
How does it all work?
You will learn how to export a Max/RNBO patch to a VST/AudioUnit target. You will then be able to use your own plug-in inside any DAW.
No need to learn programming languages. You only need to be familiar with the Max environment.
