So I asked chatGPT to write a software synthesizer and it did, read it's following comment [View all]



#include
#include

const int SAMPLE_RATE = 44100;
const int OSCILLATOR_COUNT = 2;
const int MAX_VOLUME = 32768;

struct Oscillator {
double frequency;
double phase;
double gain;
};

double generateSample(Oscillator oscillators[]) {
double sample = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < OSCILLATOR_COUNT; i++) {
Oscillator osc = oscillators;
sample += osc.gain * sin(2 * M_PI * osc.frequency * osc.phase);
osc.phase += 1.0 / SAMPLE_RATE;
if (osc.phase > 1.0) {
osc.phase -= 1.0;
}
oscillators = osc;
}
return sample / OSCILLATOR_COUNT;
}

int main() {
Oscillator oscillators[OSCILLATOR_COUNT];

// Set the initial frequencies and gains of the oscillators
oscillators[0].frequency = 440.0;
oscillators[0].gain = 0.5;
oscillators[1].frequency = 880.0;
oscillators[1].gain = 0.5;

// Generate and output a sine wave for one second
for (int i = 0; i < SAMPLE_RATE; i++) {
double sample = generateSample(oscillators);
std::cout

This code defines a simple synthesizer that consists of two oscillators that generate sine waves. The generateSample() function calculates the output of the synthesizer by adding the contributions of each oscillator, and the main() function generates and outputs a sine wave for one second.

This is just a basic example, and there are many other features and capabilities that you could add to your synthesizer. For example, you could add filters, envelopes, LFOs, and other audio processing elements to shape and manipulate the sound. You could also create a user interface to allow users to control and manipulate the synthesizer's parameters and settings.
