Explore the importance of strongly-typed units in digital audio processing through this conference talk from the Audio Developer Conference 2023. Delve into real-life examples of API and math mistakes caused by unit errors, ranging from silent audio output to Mars rover crashes. Learn how C++'s user-defined types, conversion operators/constructors, and operator overloading can prevent unit mistakes. Examine the mp-units library, proposed for standardization in P1935, and its application in digital audio and DSP. Discover the process of developing custom units using this library and identify potential gaps in the proposal for audio developers. Gain insights from Roth Michaels, a Principal Software Engineer at Native Instruments, on software architecture, cross-platform development, and the intersection of music composition and software engineering in the audio industry.
