Without difficulty, you can notice that a pioneer in musical engineering is to be remembered today. Today's Google Doodle shows the Moog synthesizer, invented by Robert Arthur Moog, who was born today 78 years ago.
The Ding side contains 8 tone fields which together form the "tone circle" (scale or mode). This circle surrounds a central dome, called the Ding, which sounds like a Gong. On the Gu side (underneath), there is a hand size hole called the Gu for sound res
The tutorials cover topics including music software design, audio
synthesis, digital signal processing, compositional systems,
and computer programming concepts.
They draw upon the design and pedagogical skills of digital
instrument makers from Australian Universities, with advice from
experienced music software developers.
We hope that you find them useful if you are a musician or
software programmer interested in making music software and,
as a freely available resource, this site will provide support for
enthusiasts and professionals in Australia and around the world.
The tutorials on this site focus on software development using the
jMusic software toolkit, an open-source software library in
the Java language. In the future this site may hold parallel tutorials
in other software development environments, such as Max/MSP.
