Simple things to code¶

(Equivalent of "something with a few springs and pulleys" in physics context)

• Synthesis: Karplus-Strong algorithm (very trivial), bonus points for adjustments to keep it in tune. What playback libraries etc?

• Synthesis: Concatenative singing synth?

• Source separation: Very trivial "listen to audio and dump out the power in each of the stereo channels"

• Source separation: Binary masking

• Analysis: ZCR

• Analysis: Onset detector using e.g. spectral flux

• Analysis: Simple fundamental-frequency tracker

• Making the above analysis methods into Vamp plugin using VamPy and using it in SV etc

• Taking the synth bits and plugging them into the analysis bits

• Taking more than one synth bit and playing a piece of music
