Music Synthesis on Different Musical Instruments Using ARM Cortex-M4F Microcontroller

At present all the various methods present to generate music are either based on playing recorded samples of musical instruments that is high priced and non-creative or by synthesis which involves a large number of components and is very complex to generate tones. Also, a synthesizer can be designed exclusively for only a single musical instrument. This paper provides an overview of how the sound of various musical instruments can be generated on a single system using an ARM Microcontroller and a simple binary weighted resistor DAC. This work is based on ARM Cortex - M4F Microcontroller which has low power consumption and is economical.
