Build AI-Enhanced Audio Plugins with C++ [Paperback]

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 plug-in APIs which demonstrate how to combine technologies to produce professional, AI-enhanced creative tools.

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.
