Lullaby is an audio synthesis framework for Swift that supports both macOS and Linux! It was inspired by other audio environments like FAUST, SuperCollider, Max and an article "Functional Signal Processing in Swift".
Currently, it is not production-ready, but I would like to know what you think!
- Audio Synthesis
- Computer Music Composition
- Real-time Reactive Audio Effects for Games and Apps
- Data Sonification
- Tested on macOS / Linux1
- Swift 5.5

while !task.isCancelled {}- Triggers subscribing to external events - key presses, MIDI, etcs.
- Musical Composition DSL system
- Writing musical pieces through custom DSL.
- Phrases, Loops and more.
- Test on other platforms (iOS, Windows, etcs.)
- API Documentation
-
SoundIO, a Swift binding of libsoundio is used in the source code, but it will be deprecated in favour of miniaudio.
-
miniaudio is used internally to handle audio I/O.

Footnotes

Tested on Raspberry Pi 4B running Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Theoretically, it should work on other platforms too. I couldn't test it though. If it doesn't work, please open an issue. ↩
