AS3 Synth;
oktober 19, 2010
Wow, HTML &Tities, been a while.
Today, I made a synthesizer in AS3. Not a real one, mind.
It’s the basic-est of the basic, but I had a lot of fun making it and thought it was worth sharing.
You can use your keyboard as a, well, keyboard.
Q is C5, Z is C5 sharp, S is D5, and so on up to K (= C6).
and switch between waveforms/sound of the synth by using the buttons in the middle.
Notice that the Triangle one (3rd from the left) doesn’t do anything.
That’s because I couldn’t find a proper function to run it. Wikipedia’s too math-y (even for me) and haven’t found much help anywhere else.
(There’s A LOT of technical stuff that I’m just unable to sort through out there). So if anyone knows : Please tell me.
Triangle-waves are the nicest ones.
Anyways: A big thanks goes out to Bit-101 for its series on Sound Synthesis which I basically modded for personal entertainment.
