The teaching synergy of digital music and SP

摘要

Teaching signal processing to senior students can be an enjoyable task, provided that they already have good background in MATLAB programming and filter theory. We describe in this paper a laboratory assignment where students have to synthesize music in different ways: additive, FM, through physical modeling and usingwavetables. In each case we emphasize SP concepts involved and we show good examples of the results achieved. With small but certain improvements over the last few years, we keep increasing the number of future professionals that will work in DSP.
