An Introduction to Analog Electronics for Audio Software Developers

This 17-minute conference talk from the Audio Developer Conference (ADC) introduces the basics of analog circuitry to audio software developers. Learn about the fundamental operation of circuit components including resistors, capacitors, and operational-amplifiers, and discover their applications in audio circuits. Presented by Jatin Chowdhury, an electrical engineer with expertise in audio applications of digital signal processing who studied at USC and Stanford's Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA). Gain valuable insights into the analog foundations that preceded modern audio software, enhancing your understanding of how traditional audio effects and synthesizers were created before the digital era. Part of ADC's mission to help developers acquire new audio development skills and build supportive professional networks.
