Build AI-Enhanced Audio Plugins with C++ explains how to embed artificial intelligence technology inside tools that can be used by audio and music professionals, through worked examples using Python, C++ and audio APIs which demonstrate how to combine technologies to produce professional, AI-enhanced creative tools.

Alongside a freely accessible source code repository created by the author that accompanies the book for readers to reference, each chapter is supported by complete example applications and projects, including an autonomous music improviser, a neural network-based synthesizer meta-programmer and a neural audio effects processor. Detailed instructions on how to build each example are also provided, including source code extracts, diagrams and background theory.

This is an essential guide for software developers and programmers of all levels looking to integrate AI into their systems, as well as educators and students of audio programming, machine learning and software development.

Reviews

"This book is long overdue. With the explosion of activity in the field of AI-assisted music creation, the need for mastering all the chain of software from ideas to actual plugins is stronger than ever. Matthew has a direct, hands-on approach that not only will be of great help to people wanting to contribute to the field, but will also encourage others to experiment and share their code. Matthew's experience in teaching shows and definitely contributes to making the book easy to read and to-the-point."
