Audio Processing and Synthesis Library for Rust
FunDSP is an audio DSP (digital signal processing) library for audio processing and synthesis.
FunDSP features a powerful inline graph notation for describing audio processing networks. The notation taps into composable, zero-cost abstractions that express the structure of audio networks as Rust types.
Another innovative feature of FunDSP is its signal flow system, which can determine analytic frequency responses for any linear network.
FunDSP comes with a combinator environment containing a suite of audio components, math and utility functions and procedural generation tools.

- Education
- Music making
- Sound hacking and audio golfing
- Prototyping of DSP algorithms
To discuss FunDSP and other topics, come hang out with us at the Rust Audio Discord.
bevy_fundsp integrates FunDSP into the Bevy game engine.
midi_fundsp enables the easy creation of live synthesizer software using FunDSP for synthesis.
FunDSP Composable Graph Notation expresses audio networks in algebraic form, using graph operators. It was developed together with the functional environment to minimize the number of typed characters needed to accomplish common audio tasks.
Many common algorithms can be expressed in a natural form conducive to understanding. For example, an FM oscillator can be written simply as:
sine_hz(f) * f * m + f >> sine()
The above expression defines an audio graph that is compiled into a stack allocated, inlined form using the powerful generic abstractions built into Rust. Connectivity errors are detected during compilation, saving development time.
With no macros needed, the FunDSP graph notation integrates audio DSP tightly into the Rust programming language as a first-class citizen. Native Rust operator precedences work in harmony with the notation, minimizing the number of parentheses needed.
FunDSP graph expressions offer even more economy in being generic over channel arities, which are encoded at the type level. A mono network can be expressed as a stereo network simply by replacing its mono generators and filters with stereo ones, the graph notation remaining the same.
There are two parallel component systems: the static AudioNode
and the dynamic AudioUnit
.
Trait | Sample Type | Dispatch | Allocation Strategy | Connectivity |
---|---|---|---|---|
AudioNode |
generic (f32 or f64 ) |
static, inlined | stack | input and output arity fixed at compile time |
AudioUnit32 |
f32 |
dynamic, object safe | heap | input and output arity fixed after construction |
AudioUnit64 |
f64 |
-..- | -..- | -..- |
The main property of a component in either system is that it is a processing node in a graph with a specific number of input and output connections, called its arity. Audio and control signals flow through input and output connections.
Both systems operate on signals synchronously as an infinite stream. The stream can be
rewound to the start at any time using the reset
method.
AudioNode
s can be stack allocated for the most part, if only single sample processing
is used. Block processing via AudioNode::process
requires heap allocation.
Some nodes may also use the heap for audio buffers and the like.
The allocate
method preallocates all needed memory. It should be called last before
sending something into a real-time context. This is done automatically in
the Net
and Sequencer
frontends.
The purpose of the AudioUnit
system is to grant more flexibility in dynamic situations:
decisions about input and output arities and contents can be deferred to runtime.
AudioNode
s are converted to the AudioUnit
system using the wrapper type An
,
which implements AudioUnit32
or AudioUnit64
, depending on the sample type.
Opcodes in the preludes return nodes already wrapped.
AudioUnit
s can in turn be converted to AudioNode
with the wrappers Node32
and Node64
.
In this case, the input and output arities must be provided as type-level constants
U0
, U1
, ..., for example:
use fundsp::hacker32::*;
// The number of inputs is zero and the number of outputs is one.
let type_erased: An<Node32<U0, U1>> = node32::<U0, U1>(Box::new(white() >> lowpass_hz(5000.0, 1.0) >> highpass_hz(1000.0, 1.0)));
Processing samples is easy in both AudioNode
and AudioUnit
systems.
The tick
method is for processing single
sample frames, while the process
method processes whole blocks.
If maximum speed is important, then it is a good idea to use block processing, as it amortizes function calling, processing setup and dynamic network overhead.
Mono samples can be retrieved with get_mono
and filter_mono
methods. The get_mono
method
returns the next sample from a generator that has no inputs and one or two outputs,
while the filter_mono
method filters the next sample from
a node that has one input and one output:
let out_sample = node.get_mono();
let out_sample = node.filter_mono(sample);
Stereo samples can be retrieved with get_stereo
and filter_stereo
methods.
The get_stereo
method returns the next stereo sample pair from a generator that
has no inputs and one or two outputs,
while the filter_stereo
method filters the next sample
from a node that has two inputs and two outputs.
let (out_left_sample, out_right_sample) = node.get_stereo();
let (out_left_sample, out_right_sample) = node.filter_stereo(left_sample, right_sample);
Of the signals flowing in graphs, some contain audio while others are controls of different kinds.
With control signals and parameters in general, we prefer to use natural units like Hz and seconds. It is useful to keep parameters independent of the sample rate, which we can then adjust as we like.
In addition to sample rate adjustments, natural units enable support for
selective oversampling (the oversample
component)
in nested sections that are easy to configure and modify.
Some low-level components ignore the sample rate by design, such as the single sample delay tick
.
The default sample rate is 44.1 kHz.
In both systems, the sample rate can be set for component A
via A.set_sample_rate(sample_rate)
.
FunDSP preludes define convenient combinator environments for audio processing.
There are three name-level compatible versions of the prelude.
The default environment (fundsp::prelude
) offers a generic interface.
It is flexible and attempts to conform to Rust practices.
The 64-bit hacker environment (fundsp::hacker
) for audio hacking
is fully 64-bit to minimize type annotations and maximize audio quality.
The 32-bit hacker environment (fundsp::hacker32
) aims to offer
maximum processing speed.
An application interfacing fundsp
can mix and match preludes as needed.
The aims of the environments are:
- Minimize the number of characters needed to type to express an idiom.
- Keep the syntax clean so that a subset of the hacker environment can be parsed straightforwardly as a high-level DSL for quick prototyping.
- Make the syntax usable even to people with no prior exposure to programming.
- Exemplify an effective procedural style.
FunDSP uses a deterministic pseudorandom phase system for audio generators. Generator phases are seeded from network structure and node location.
Thus, two identical networks sound identical separately but different when combined.
This means that noise() | noise()
is a stereo noise source, for example.
Custom operators are available for combining audio components inline. In order of precedence, from highest to lowest:
Expression | Meaning | Inputs | Outputs | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
-A |
negate A |
a |
a |
Negates any number of outputs, even zero. |
!A |
thru A |
a |
same as inputs | Passes through extra inputs. |
A * B |
multiply A with B |
a + b |
a = b |
Aka amplification, or ring modulation when both are audio signals. Number of outputs in A and B must match. |
A * constant |
multiply A |
a |
a |
Broadcasts constant. Same applies to constant * A . |
A + B |
sum A and B |
a + b |
a = b |
Aka mixing. Number of outputs in A and B must match. |
A + constant |
add to A |
a |
a |
Broadcasts constant. Same applies to constant + A . |
A - B |
difference of A and B |
a + b |
a = b |
Number of outputs in A and B must match. |
A - constant |
subtract from A |
a |
a |
Broadcasts constant. Same applies to constant - A . |
A >> B |
pipe A to B |
a |
b |
Aka chaining. Number of outputs in A must match number of inputs in B . |
A & B |
bus A and B |
a = b |
a = b |
Sum A and B . A and B must have identical connectivity. |
A ^ B |
branch input to A and B in parallel |
a = b |
a + b |
Number of inputs in A and B must match. |
A | B |
stack A and B in parallel |
a + b |
a + b |
Concatenates A and B inputs and outputs. |
In the table, constant
denotes an f32
or f64
value.
All operators are associative, except the left associative -
.
Arithmetic operators are applied to outputs channel-wise.
Arithmetic between two components never broadcasts channels: channel arities have to match always.
Direct arithmetic with f32
and f64
values, however, broadcasts to an arbitrary number of channels.
The negation operator broadcasts also: -A
is equivalent with (0.0 - A)
.
For example, A * constant(2.0)
and A >> mul(2.0)
are equivalent and expect A
to have one output.
On the other hand, A * 2.0
works with any A
, even sinks.
The thru (!
) operator is syntactic sugar for chaining filters with similar connectivity.
It adjusts output arity to match input arity and passes through any missing outputs to the next node. The missing outputs are parameters to the filter.
For example, while lowpass()
is a 2nd order lowpass filter, !lowpass() >> lowpass()
is a steeper 4th order lowpass filter with identical connectivity.
Components can be broadly classified into generators, filters and sinks. Generators have only outputs, while filters have both inputs and outputs.
Sinks are components with no outputs. Direct arithmetic on a sink translates to a no-op.
In the prelude, sink()
returns a mono sink.
Of special interest among operators are the four custom combinators:
pipe ( >>
), bus ( &
), branch ( ^
), and stack ( |
).
The pipe is a serial operator where components appear in processing order. Branch, stack, and arithmetic operators are parallel operators where components appear in channel order.
The bus is a commutative operator where components may appear in any order. The other operators are not commutative in general.
All four are fully associative, and each come with their own connectivity rules.
The pipe ( >>
) operator builds traditional processing chains akin to composition of functions.
A
runs first, then B
. In A >> B
, each output of A
is piped to a matching input of B
, so
the output arity of A
must match the input arity of B
.
The whole combination then has the input arity of A
and the output arity of B
.
Pipe is a fundamental operation. It wires units in series.
It is possible to pipe a sink to a generator. This is similar to stacking. Processing works as normal and the sink processes its inputs before the generator is run.
Where the arithmetic operators are reducing in nature,
the branch ( ^
) operator splits a signal into parallel branches.
In A ^ B
, both components receive the same input but their outputs are disjoint.
Because the components receive the same input, the number of inputs in A
and B
must match.
In A ^ B
, the outputs of A
appear first, followed with outputs of B
.
Branching is useful for building banks of components such as filters.
The bus ( &
) operator can be thought of as an inline audio bus
with a fixed set of input and output channels.
It builds signal buses from components with identical connectivity.
In A & B
, the same input is sent to both A
and B
, and their outputs are mixed together.
Components in a bus may appear in any order.
The bus is especially useful because it does not alter connectivity: we can always bus together any set of matching components without touching the rest of the expression.
Both A + B
and A & B
are mixing operators. The difference between the two is that A + B
is reducing:
A
and B
have their own, disjoint inputs, which are combined at the output.
In A & B
, both components source from the same inputs, and the number of inputs must match.
One application of the bus is controlling effect mix in conjunction with the pass
opcode,
which passes signal through unchanged. For example, to add 20% chorus to a mono signal,
one might type pass() & 0.2 * chorus(0, 0.0, 0.01, 0.3)
.
Or, to add 20% reverb to a stereo signal, multipass() & 0.2 * reverb_stereo(20.0, 2.0, 1.0)
.
Type inference works in our favor here, saving us the need to write the arity of multipass
,
and the constant 0.2
is broadcast to two channels.
The stack ( |
) operator builds composite components.
It can be applied to any two components.
As a graph operator, the stack corresponds to the disjoint union.
In A | B
, the inputs and outputs of A
and B
are disjoint and they are processed independently, in parallel.
In stacks, components are written in channel order.
In A | B | C
, channels of A
come first, followed by channels of B
, then C
.
The stack is often used to build filter parameters. For example, in
(pass() | constant((440.0, 1.0))) >> lowpass()
the input signal is passed through
the stack and two other signals, frequency and Q, are concatenated to it to form the input
to a lowpass filter.
The expression A >> (B ^ C ^ D)
defines a signal processing graph.
It has whatever inputs A
has, and outputs everything from B
and C
and D
in parallel.
The whole structure is packed, monomorphized and inlined with the constituent nodes consumed. If you want to reuse components, define them as functions or closures, or clone them. See the preludes for examples.
Connectivity is checked during compilation.
Mismatched connectivity will result in a compilation error complaining about mismatched
typenum
types.
The arrays Frame<T, Size>
that connect components come from the
generic-array
and
numeric-array
crates.
Graph combinators consume their arguments. This prevents cycles and imposes an overall tree shape on the resulting computation graph.
Implicit cycle prevention means that the built structures are always computationally efficient in the dataflow sense. All reuse of computed data takes place locally, inside combinators and components.
There are two main ways to structure the reuse of signals in FunDSP graph notation: branching and busing. Both are exposed as fundamental operators, guiding toward efficient structuring of computation. Dataflow concerns are thus explicated in the graph notation itself.
The graph notation can get cumbersome for complex graphs. Also, sometimes the number of inputs and outputs is not known until runtime.
The Net32
and Net64
components offer an explicit graph interface
for connecting AudioUnit32
and AudioUnit64
nodes, respectively.
For example, to build dc(220.0) >> sine()
dynamically using Net64
:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
// Instantiate network with 0 inputs and 1 output.
let mut net = Net64::new(0, 1);
// Add nodes, obtaining their IDs.
let dc_id = net.push(Box::new(dc(220.0)));
let sine_id = net.push(Box::new(sine()));
// Connect nodes.
net.pipe(dc_id, sine_id);
net.pipe_output(sine_id);
The graph syntax is also available for combining Net32
and Net64
instances.
Connectivity checks are then deferred to runtime.
Net32
and Net64
can also be combined inline with components from the preludes.
The components are first converted to Net32
or Net64
.
When you need dynamic processing, you can start it with Net32::wrap
or Net64::wrap
,
which convert any unit into a network.
use fundsp::hacker::*;
// Wrap saw wave in a network.
let mut net = Net64::wrap(Box::new(saw()));
// Now we can add filters conditionally.
let add_filter = true;
if add_filter {
net = net >> lowpass_hz(1000.0, 1.0);
}
For real-time situations, a Net32
or Net64
can be divided into a frontend
and a backend. The frontend handles changes to the network,
while the real-time safe backend renders audio.
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let mut net = Net64::new(0, 1);
let noise_id = net.chain(Box::new(pink()));
// Create the backend.
let mut backend = net.backend();
// The backend is now ready to be sent into an audio thread.
// We can make changes to the frontend and then commit them to the backend.
net.replace(noise_id, Box::new(brown()));
net.commit();
// We can also use the graph syntax to make changes, as long as connectivity
// is maintained at commit time.
net = net >> peak_hz(1000.0, 1.0);
net.commit();
Some signals found flowing in audio networks.
Modality | Preferred Units/Range | Notes |
---|---|---|
frequency | Hz | |
phase | 0...1 | The wavetable oscillator uses this range. |
time | s | |
audio data | -1...1 | Inner processing may use any range that is convenient. However, only special output formats can store audio data outside this range. |
stereo pan | -1...1 (left to right) | For ergonomy, consider clamping any pan input to this range. |
control amount | 0...1 | If there is no natural interpretation of the parameter. |
FunDSP includes multichannel wave abstractions. They are named Wave32
and Wave64
.
For example, to render 10 seconds of pink noise:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let wave1 = Wave64::render(44100.0, 10.0, &mut (pink()));
Then filter it with a moving bandpass filter and normalize samples to -1..1:
let mut wave2 = wave1.filter(10.0, &mut ((pass() | lfo(|t| (xerp11(110.0, 880.0, spline_noise(0, t * 5.0)), 1.0))) >> bandpass()));
wave2.normalize();
Saving of waves is possible in 16-bit or 32-bit WAV.
The latter is floating point.
For example, to save wave2
to test.wav
:
wave2.save_wav16("test.wav").expect("Could not save wave.");
Loading of audio files in various formats is handled by the
Symphonia crate.
Symphonia integration is enabled by the files
feature, which is enabled by default.
For example, to load test.wav
:
let wave3 = Wave64::load("test.wav").expect("Could not load wave.");
FunDSP features a comprehensive signal flow system that analyzes causal latencies and frequency responses in audio networks.
The system can calculate the frequency response of any linear network analytically by composing transfer functions and folding constants. Linear networks are constructed from linear filters, delays, and the operations of:
- Mixing.
- Chaining. Chaining of linear filters and delays maintains linearity.
- Constant scaling. Signals may be scaled by constant factors.
Signal latencies are similarly analyzed from input to output in detail, facilitating automatic removal of pre-delay from effects chains.
For example,
FIR filters
can be composed inline from single sample delays (the tick
opcode) and arithmetic.
Signal flow analysis will readily reveal that a 2-point averaging filter
has zero gain at the Nyquist frequency,
while a 3-point averaging filter does not:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
assert!((pass() & tick()).response(0, 22050.0).unwrap().norm() < 1.0e-9);
assert!((pass() & tick() & tick() >> tick()).response(0, 22050.0).unwrap().norm() > 0.1);
However, with appropriate scaling a 3-point FIR can vanish, too:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
assert!((0.5 * pass() & tick() & 0.5 * tick() >> tick()).response(0, 22050.0).unwrap().norm() < 1.0e-9);
Verified frequency responses are available for all linear filters.

The follow
filter is special. It supports different rates for rising (attack) and falling (release) segments.
For example, follow((0.1, 0.2))
has a 0.1 second attack and a 0.2 second release.
It also jumps immediately to the very first value in the input stream, and starts smoothing from there. This means the output value is always within input bounds.
Unlike linear filters, nonlinear filters may be sensitive to incoming signal level. Due to nonlinearity, we do not attempt to calculate frequency responses for these filters.
Opcode | Type | Parameters | Family | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
bandrez |
bandpass (2nd order) | frequency, Q | nested 1st order | Sensitive to input level. |
lowrez |
lowpass (2nd order) | frequency, Q | nested 1st order | -..- |

Filtering and other effects can be done in the
frequency domain
as well with the resynth
opcode.
The resynthesizer Fourier transforms input windows to the frequency domain with an overlap of four. A processing function then translates these inputs to frequency domain outputs. The output windows are inverse transformed and overlap-added.
The resynthesizer can reconstruct inputs exactly, so an effect can be made to vary smoothly between an input and a processed version.
For example, to implement a highly selective FFT bandpass filter:
use fundsp::hacker32::*;
// The window length, which must be a power of two and at least four,
// determines the frequency resolution. Latency is equal to the window length.
let window_length = 1024;
// Passband in Hz.
let pass_min = 1000.0;
let pass_max = 2000.0;
// The number of input and output channels is user configurable.
// Here both are 1 (`U1`).
let synth = resynth::<U1, U1, _>(window_length, |fft|
for i in 0..fft.bins() {
if fft.frequency(i) >= pass_min && fft.frequency(i) <= pass_max {
fft.set(0, i, fft.at(0, i));
}
});
The processing function can obtain window time from the supplied FFT window object, to support time varying effects.
For more information on the technique, see Fourier analysis and reconstruction of audio signals.
Besides Net
and Sequencer
frontends, there are two ways to introduce real-time
control to graph expressions: shared atomic variables and setting listeners.
We may use shared atomic variables to communicate data from and to external contexts. A shared variable is declared with an initial value:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let amp = shared(1.0);
Shared variables can be cloned and sent into another thread.
To instantiate a shared variable output into an audio graph, use var
and var_fn
opcodes.
For example, to control amplitude:
let amp_controlled = noise() * var(&);
Later we can set the amplitude from anywhere:
amp.set_value(0.5);
A useful pattern is piping a shared variable through a follow
filter
to smooth parameter changes, here with a 0.1 second response time:
let amp_controlled = noise() * (var(&) >> follow(0.1));
The timer
opcode maintains stream time in a shared variable.
The timer node has no inputs or outputs and can be joined to any node by stacking.
Settings are all kinds of node parameters with no dedicated inputs. A node can respond to one type of setting.
The purpose of settings is to automate setting listeners,
which are instantiated with the listen(graph)
opcode. It
returns a (sender, graph)
pair. The graph has been wrapped
with a listener listening to settings sent through sender
.
The sender can be cloned and invoked from other threads.
The format of the settings available through sender
depends
on the type of the graph.
If a parameter has a dedicated input then it cannot be a setting.
The way to get filters with parameters controlled via settings
is to use the forms that specify all parameters
as constant, for example, lowpass_hz
.
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let (sender, graph) = listen(lowpass_hz(1000.0, 1.0));
Later we can send filter parameters from anywhere via sender. For example, the setting format of a lowpass filter is (cutoff, Q). Set filter cutoff to 1 kHz and Q to 2.0:
sender.try_send((1000.0, 2.0)).expect("Cannot send setting.");
If a listener is attached to a binary operation, then the
different sides can be picked with the left
or right
function.
For example, constants are exposed as settings:
let (sender, graph) = listen(dc(0.5) >> resample(pink()));
sender.try_send(left([0.6].into())).expect("Cannot send setting.");
The following table summarizes the available settings.

In this example we make a 12-band, double precision parametric equalizer
using the peaking bell
filter.
First, declare the processing pipeline. Here we space the bands at 1 kHz increments starting from 1 kHz, set Q values to 1.0 and set gains of all bands to 0 dB initially:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let mut equalizer = pipe::<U12, _, _>(|i| bell_hz(1000.0 + 1000.0 * i as f64, 1.0, db_amp(0.0)));
The type of the equalizer is An<Chain<U12, f64, FixedSvf<f64, f64, BellMode<f64>>>>
.
The equalizer is ready to use immediately. Filter samples:
let output_sample = equalizer.filter_mono(input_sample);
We can access individual bands via equalizer.node(i)
and equalizer.node_mut(i)
where i
ranges from 0 to 11.
Set band 0 to amplify by 10 dB at 500 Hz with Q set to 2.0:
equalizer.node_mut(0).set_gain(db_amp(10.0));
equalizer.node_mut(0).set_center(500.0);
equalizer.node_mut(0).set_q(2.0);
For plotting the frequency response, we can query the equalizer. Query equalizer gain at 1 kHz:
let decibel_gain_at_1k = equalizer.response_db(0, 1000.0).unwrap();
The default sample rate is 44.1 kHz. Set sample rate to 48 kHz:
equalizer.set_sample_rate(48_000.0);
For real-time control, the equalizer can be equipped with a setting listener.
let (sender, equalizer) = listen(equalizer);
Then, we can send settings of the form (band, (center, Q, gain)).
The settings are available because we constructed the filter using
the bell_hz
form.
Set band 1 to amplify by 3 dB at 1000 Hz with Q set to 2.0:
sender.try_send((1, (1000.0, 2.0, db_amp(3.0)))).expect("Cannot send setting.");
The display
method returns information about a node,

envelope(f)
is a node that samples a time varying control function f
.
For example, envelope(|t| exp(-t))
is an exponentially decaying envelope.
A control function is something that is expected to change relatively slowly.
Therefore, we can save time by not calling it at every sample.
The argument to the function is time in seconds. Whenever the node is reset, time resets to zero.
envelope
is generic over channel arity:
The return type of the function - scalar or tuple - determines the number of outputs.
The samples are spaced at an average of 2 ms apart, jittered by noise derived from pseudorandom phase. The values in between are linearly interpolated.
lfo
(Low Frequency Oscillator) is another name for envelope
.
branch
, bus
, pipe
, sum
and stack
are opcodes that combine multiple nodes,
according to their first generic argument.
They accept a generator function that is issued i64
integers starting from 0.
The nodes are stack allocated, and each node is assigned its own pseudorandom phase.
For example, to create 20 noise bands in 1 kHz...2 kHz:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let partials = bus::<U20, _, _>(|i| noise() >> resonator_hz(xerp(1_000.0, 2_000.0, rnd(i)), 20.0));
Similarly, branchf
, busf
, pipef
, sumf
and stackf
accept a generator function
that is issued values evenly distributed in the unit interval 0...1.
The first node is issued the value 0 and the last node the value 1.
If there is only one node, then it receives the value 0.5.
For example, to distribute 20 noise bands evenly in 1 kHz...2 kHz:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
let partials = busf::<U20, _, _>(|f| noise() >> resonator_hz(xerp(1_000.0, 2_000.0, f), 20.0));
These are arguments to the shape
opcode.
Shape::Clip
: Clip signal to -1...1.Shape::ClipTo(minimum, maximum)
: Clip signal between the two arguments.Shape::Tanh(hardness)
: Applytanh
distortion with configurable hardness. Argument totanh
is multiplied by the hardness value.Shape::Atan(hardness)
: Applyatan
distortion with configurable hardness. Argument toatan
is multiplied by the hardness value.Shape::Softsign(hardness)
: Applysoftsign
distortion with configurable hardness. Argument tosoftsign
is multiplied by the hardness value.Shape::Crush(levels)
: Apply a staircase function with configurable number of levels per unit.Shape::SoftCrush(levels)
: Apply a smooth staircase function with configurable number of levels per unit.Shape::AdaptiveTanh(timescale, hardness)
: Apply adaptive normalizing distortion with smoothingtimescale
in seconds. Smoothing timescale is the time it takes for level estimation to move halfway to a new value. Argument totanh
is multiplied by the hardness value and divided by the RMS level of the signal.
The monitor(&shared, mode)
opcode is a pass-through node that presents
some aspect of data passed through in a shared variable. Metering modes are:
Meter::Sample
: Stores the latest value passed through.Meter::Peak(timescale)
: Peak amplitude meter with smoothingtimescale
in seconds.Meter::Rms(timescale)
: Root mean square meter with smoothingtimescale
in seconds.
Smoothing timescale is the time it takes for level estimation to move halfway to a new value.
The same modes are used in the meter
opcode.

There are usually many ways to express a particular graph. The following expression pairs are identical.
Expression | Is The Same As | Notes |
---|---|---|
(pass() ^ mul(2.0)) >> sine() + sine() |
sine() & mul(2.0) >> sine() |
Busing is often more convenient than explicit branching followed with summing. |
--sink()-42.0^sink()&---sink()*3.14 |
sink() |
Branching, busing and arithmetic on sinks are no-ops. |
constant(0.0) | dc(1.0) |
constant((0.0, 1.0)) |
Stacking concatenates channels. |
sink() | zero() |
zero() | sink() |
The order does not matter because sink() only adds an input, while zero() only adds an output. |
(butterpass() ^ (sink() | pass())) >> butterpass() |
!butterpass() >> butterpass() |
Running a manual bypass. |
!sink() |
pass() |
The attempt of the sink to consume signal is foiled by the thru operator, which passes the missing output through. |
!(noise() | noise()) |
!noise() |
The thru operator nullifies any generator. |
The AudioNode
component system represents audio network structure at the type level.
The representation contains input and output arities,
which are encoded as types U0
, U1
, ..., by the typenum
crate.
The associated types are AudioNode::Inputs
and AudioNode::Outputs
.
The representation contains sample and inner processing types when applicable, encoded in that order.
These are chosen statically. The associated sample type, which is used to transport
data between nodes, is AudioNode::Sample
.
The preludes employ the wrapper type An<X: AudioNode>
containing operator overloads and other trait implementations.
The wrapper also implements either of AudioUnit32
or AudioUnit64
traits.
The type encoding is straightforward. As an example, in the hacker prelude
noise() & constant(440.0) >> sine()
is represented as
An<Bus<f64, Noise<f64>, Pipe<f64, Constant<U1, f64>, Sine<f64>>>>
The compiler reports these types in an opaque form.
An attached utility, examples/type.rs
, can unscramble such opaque types.
This invocation prints the above type:
cargo run --example type -- "fundsp::combinator::An<Bus<f64, Noise<f64>, Pipe<f64, Constant<typenum::uint::UInt<typenum::uint::UTerm, typenum::bit::B1>, f64>, Sine<f64>>>>"
It is also possible to declare the return type as an impl AudioNode
.
However, this type is also opaque and cannot be stored as an AudioNode
;
conversion to AudioUnit32
or AudioUnit64
may be necessary in this case.
Declaring the full arity in the signature does enable use of the node in further combinations. For example:
use fundsp::hacker::*;
fn split_quad() -> An<impl AudioNode<Sample = f64, Inputs = U1, Outputs = U4>> {
pass() ^ pass() ^ pass() ^ pass()
}
