"The Analog Real-Time Synthesizer, or &arts;, is a modular system for "
"synthesizing sound and music on a digital computer. Using small building "

"generators, filters, audio effects, mixing, and playback of digital audio in "
"different file formats."

"In late 1997 Stefan Westerfeld started working on a real-time, modular "
"system for sound synthesis. The code initially ran on a PowerPC system "
"running &AIX;. This first implementation was quite simple but supported a "
"full-featured flow system that was able to do such things as play MP3 files "
"and pipe audio streams through effects modules."

"The next step was to implement a &GUI; so that modules could be manipulated "
"graphically. Stefan had had some good experience using &kde;, so that was "
"chosen as the &GUI; toolkit, (knowing that it might be necessary to do a "
"GNOME/Gtk+ version as well) and this later led to using &Linux; as the main "
"development platform. Originally named <application>ksynth</application>, "
"the project was renamed &arts; and the pace of development accelerated. The "
"project at this stage was quite complete, with a "
"<acronym>CORBA</acronym>-based protocol, dozens of modules, a graphical "
"module editing tool, C and C++ <acronym>API</acronym>s, documentation, "
"utilities, and a mailing list and web site with a small group of developers. "

"a proven architecture. Much new development effort went into this new "
"version of &arts;, most notably the replacement of the "
"<acronym>CORBA</acronym> code with an entirely new subsystem, &MCOP;, "
