Convergence synthesis of dynamic frequency modulation tones using an evolution strategy

Mitchell, Thomas J.; Pipe, Anthony G.

Abstract

This paper reports on steps that have been taken to enhance previously presented evolutionary sound matching work. In doing so, the convergence characteristics are shown to provide a synthesis method that produces interesting sounds. The method implements an Evolution Strategy to optimise a set of real-valued Frequency Modulation parameters. The development of the evolution is synthesised as optimisation takes place, and the corresponding dynamic sound can be observed developing from initial disorder, into a stable, static tone.
