This conference talk from the Audio Developer Conference (ADC) 2024 explores the critical topic of safety in audio programming. Dive into Dave Rowland's 49-minute presentation examining different types of safety, including memory and functional safety, and their relationship to security in the audio industry. Learn about potential risks audio developers face and current mitigation strategies. Discover possible alternatives to "memory unsafe languages" like C and C++, with analysis of whether languages such as Rust, Hylo, Swift, or Cmajor are suitable for audio development. Explore existing tooling like static analyzers and sanitizers that might provide safety nets for memory unsafe languages, and understand the most pragmatic approach to audio development with future considerations in mind. Dave Rowland, CTO at Audio Squadron, brings his expertise in modern C++ standards and their application to improve code safety while maintaining performance in real-time audio systems.
