SeeSaw presents and discusses methodsfor implementing a hybrid synthesizer,by employing a digital embeddedplatform for editing digital signalprocessing algorithms in realtime.The aim of the project is the developmentof multiple instrument patchesusing synthesis techniques and methodsin Max/gen visual programminglanguage. Analog circuits are developedas supplementary modulation effectsfor enhancing the digital audiocore. Moreover, the project investigatesthe impact of electro-mechanicalparts both from sound aspects and designinterface perspective. The majorityof the digital synthesizers arebased on simple knob/button interfacesthat lack intuition and expressivequality. In return, this research aimsto address these challenges by proposinga new hybrid digital interface, designedand reinforced by analog circuitsand mechanisms, that allows forsyn-aesthetic human-machine interactions
