SpiegeLib¶
Synthesizer Programming with Intelligent Exploration, Generation, and Evaluation Library
An object oriented Python library for research and development related to Automatic Synthesizer Programming. SpiegeLib contains a set of classes and base classes for developing and evaluating algorithms for generating parameters and patch settings for synthesizers.
SpiegeLib is named after composer Laurie Spiegel, an early pioneer in electronic music. She is known for her work with synthesizers and for automating various aspects of the music composition process. Her philosophy for using technology and automation in music serves as motivation for this project:
“I automate whatever can be automated to be freer to focus on those aspects of music that can’t be automated. The challenge is to figure out which is which.”
