The AI turned my Pure Data patch into an Arduino program and my sampler into a granular synth

A few months back he had the AI convert a Pure Data patch into an Arduino program that runs on standalone hardware. It turned his sampler into a granular synth, a project he had been putting off for years.

How it works

  1. Gives the AI his Pure Data patch
  2. The AI converts it into an Arduino program
  3. The program runs on standalone hardware and the sampler works as a granular synth

Why it’s worth knowing

A conversion he had put off for years turned his sampler into a different instrument.
