-1/ What is it?
---------------
-
-The FAUST Synthesis ToolKit is a set virtual musical instruments written in the FAUST
-programming language and based on waveguide algorithms and modal synthesis. Most of them
-were inspired by instruments implemented in the Synthesis ToolKit and the program SynthBuilder.
-
-The STK is developed since 1996 by P. R. Cook and G. P. Scavone. It is a set of open
-source audio signal processing and algorithmic synthesis classes written in the C++ programming
-language that can be used in the development of music synthesis and audio processing
-software (https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/stk/).
-
-On the other hand, SynthBuilder was a program used at Stanford's CCRMA (Center for Computer Research
-in Music and Acoustics) in the nineties to implement physical models of musical instruments. Most
-of its algorithms use the waveguide synthesis technique but some of them are also based on modal synthesis.
-
-Our attention has partly been focused on the pedagogical aspect of the implemented objects. Indeed,
-we tried to make the FAUST code of each objects as optimized and as expressive as possible.
-
-Some of the instruments in the (FAUST-STK) use nonlinear allpass filters to create interesting and
-new behaviors. Also, most of them can be used with gesture following datas (see the /gesture-following folder
-for some examples).
-
-2/ Which instruments?
----------------------
-

- - A simple saxophone (saxophony.dsp),
- - A bottle where it is possible to blow threw the neck to make sound (blowBotle.dsp).
-
-STRING INSTRUMENTS
-

- - A wooden bare (uniBar.dsp),
- - An iron bare (tunedBar.dsp),
- - A glass bare (glassHarmonica.dsp),
- - A set of percussion instruments that use modal synthesis (modalBar.dsp).
-
-OTHER
-
- - A voice synthesizer (voiceForm.dsp),
- - A FM synthesizer that uses an nonlinear allpass filter (NLFfm.dsp).
-
-3/ Organisation of the distribution and remarks
------------------------------------------------
-
-Most of the instruments implemented in the FAUST-STK use functions declared in instrument.lib so
-this file is required for compilation. Also, a few instruments use datas that are stored in external
-C++ functions (.h).
-
-The "pd-patches" folder contains examples of use of the FAUST-STK instruments in PureData (faust2pd
-needs to be install on your computer to use these examples).
-
-The FAUST-STK instruments are all monophonic. If you wish to make them polyphonic, we recommend you
-to compile them for PureData and to use faust2pd ("make pdpoly2" or "make pdpoly4" or "make pdpoly6" or
-"make pdpoly8" where 2, 4, 6 and 8 are the number of voices). For more informations about that,
-you can look at the examples in the pd-patches/ folder.
-
-You can find in the gesture-following/ folder an improved version of bowed.dsp that uses gesture following
-datas in PureData (first, type "make" in a terminal and then open playMe.pd). This work has been done with
-the help of E. Maestre (MTG, Barcelona).
-
-The instruments from the Faust-STK have been tested with the OSC support for FAUST implemented with some
-of the architecture files (jackqt, jackgtk, etc.).
-
-3/ How to compile?
-------------------
-
-In order to compile the instruments, the latest FAUST repository must be installed on your computer
-(03/21/2011) as well as all the required dependencies for the FAUST architecture you wish to use.
-
-Type "make help" in a terminal to print the list of available architectures and to know how to compile
-the examples.
-
-4/ Acknowledgments
-------------------
-
-This work has been carried out in the frame of the ASTREE project (Analyse et Synthèse Temps REEl),
-supported by the Agence Nationale de Recherche (ANR-08-CORD-003) at Stanford's CCRMA (Center for
-Computer Research in Music and Acoustics).
-
-Special thanks to J.O. Smith, Y. Orlarey, E. Maestre, S. Letz and L. Pottier for their support and help.
-
-Thanks also to my colleagues from the CCRMA team for all their suggestions and good ideas.
