How To Make A Noise, by Simon Cann, is a practical guide to sound design and synthesizer programming using:

• subtractive (analog) synthesis
• frequency modulation synthesis (including phase modulation and ring modulation)
• additive synthesis
• wave-sequencing and
• sample-based synthesis

The book looks at programming using examples from a variety of software synthesizers, including Cameleon 5000, Rhino 2, Surge, Vanguard, Wusikstation, and Z3TA+.

Note: The free edition of How To Make A Noise was released in 2005. An updated print version is available that features more content, graphics and sounds.
