How We Build Stuff
Our design process:
We build our models both from hardware we have in-house, as well as from ideas and concepts that don't currently exist in the real-world. We develop our designs from reading peer-reviewed papers, late-night conversations over drinks with friends, and through feedback from customers like you.
Real-world models
DSP algorithms derived from physics, mathematics, biology, causality and topology — not approximations of other people's approximations.
Live-vector GUIs
Every control is drawn every frame in native code. No baked filmstrips, no WebView — resolution-independent at any window size.
Verified, not assumed
Offline render smoke, headless UI snapshots, and pluginval strictness 10 gate every release before it ships.
CarbonDSP is a small team of software developers and DSP designers that build hardware and software for audio and multimedia professionals. Watch out for our new hardware synths coming soon!
