跨國合作【模組聲音合成】ISMT NTNU x CCRMA Stanford x TSL C-Lab

工作坊 Workshop｜22-27 April 2025 ｜C-LAB, Taiwan Sound Lab

---

Fernando 教授於2025年四月帶來模組合成器實作工作坊，帶領學員回顧模組聲音合成的歷史脈絡、技術原理與經典應用，從電壓控制合成的基本模組與信號路徑，到顆粒合成、波形折疊

與進階控制模組的技巧，示範了硬體與軟體模擬的整合方法，並指導學員使用開源平台設計獨立的聲音系統，進行聲音創作、修改與展示。課程最後舉辦成果展演，邀請觀眾共同感受模組合成的魅力與創造力。

In April 2025, Professor Fernando presented a special lecture and hands-on workshop, guiding participants through the history, principles, and classic applications of modular sound synthesis. The sessions covered the basics of voltage-controlled synthesis modules and signal paths, as well as advanced techniques such as granular synthesis, wavefolding, sequencers, and multifunction processors. He demonstrated methods for integrating hardware and software simulation, and led participants in designing their own modular sound systems using open-source platforms for sound creation, refinement, and presentation. The workshop concluded with a public showcase, inviting audiences to experience the creative potential and sonic richness of modular synthesis.

工作坊內容包括：

• 模組合成器的歷史與當前技術

• 硬體模組與軟體模擬（VCV Rack 與基礎模組組合）

• 基本模組介紹：VCO、VCA、EG、VCF、LFO

• 其他合成技術（顆粒合成、波形折疊等）

• 其他電壓處理器（多功能模組、音序器等）

• 類比、數位與混合模組的建構

• 著重 DIY 與「開源」免費軟硬體

• 設計專屬模組系統（機殼、電源供應、基本模組）

• 與電腦、音訊、MIDI 等的介接

Topics:

- Modular synthesis history, current standards

- Hardware modules and Software emulation (VCV Rack and basic module collections)

- Basic modules: VCO, VCA, EG, VCF, LFO

- Other synthesis techniques (granular, wavefolding, etc)

- Other voltage processors (multi-purpose modules, sequencers, etc)

- Building analog, digital and hybrid modules

- emphasis on DIY and "open source" free software and hardware

- Designing your own modular (case, power supply, basic modules)

- Interfacing with computers, audio, MIDI and more

「五天的工作坊中，深刻感受到 Fernando 老師在電子音樂創作中對聲音姿態的塑造、美學的思維以及空間感知的構築，展現出令人敬佩的獨到手法。」  “Over the five days, I deeply appreciated Professor Fernando’s unique approach to shaping sonic gestures, cultivating aesthetic thinking, and constructing spatial perception in electronic music.”

「從一開始完全不懂模組合成，到能有系統地設計屬於自己的聲響結構，過程不僅有趣，更重新打開了我對聲音創作的想像。」 “From having no understanding of modular synthesis to systematically designing my own sound structures, the process was not only fun but also reopened my imagination for sound creation.”
