AudioKit
AudioKit is an audio framework for iOS, macOS, and tvOS that provides tools for digital audio synthesis, signal processing, and audio analysis. It functions as a synthesis engine for generating audio waveforms and textures, a processing library for modifying tonal characteristics, and a toolkit for extracting frequency and amplitude data from sonic signals.
The framework utilizes a modular node architecture and graph-based signal routing to connect audio generators, processors, and outputs. It wraps low-level audio primitives in high-level classes to facilitate sound generation and modification.
The system supports real-time audio processing and analysis, enabling the application of filters and effects to live audio streams.
