ZYNADDSUBFX on Raspberry PI Linux - open source synthesiser (pt. 1 - installation and examples)

#ZYNADDSUBFX​ is a powerful, great-sounding, yet resource-saving software #synthesiser​, so it's an obvious choice for running a #raspberrypi​ synth. Table of contents and code snippets for copying and pasting below! This synth provides up to three seperate "engines" for each voice - there's a subtractive synth w/ waveshaping, a "noise filter" synth and a wavetable synth built into this. In this video, I download the source code, compile it, set up qjackctl, go through the basics, play some example patches, create a filter sweep pad and also create a delicious salad (for science!)
