Overview of My Vital Documentation

Vital is a powerful, open-source spectral warping wavetable synthesizer created by Matt Tytel. However, it appears that no official documentation was provided—either for end users or developers.

User Guide​

During my research, I found two existing user guides:

While these are commendable efforts, I believe there is much more to explore and expand upon. Therefore, I am creating my own user guide. As time permits, I plan to add tutorials and examples to help users maximize their experience with Vital.

Code Documentation​

The Vital code repository contains very few comments, so I have taken the initiative to add Doxygen comments. To kickstart the process, I initially used ChatGPT (o1 model) to generate comments, allowing me to quickly grasp the structure of the codebase and proceed with writing the user guide. As I continue exploring the code, I will be reviewing and refining these comments for accuracy and clarity.

Other resources​

There are numerous tutorial videos available online, though their quality and depth vary significantly. A simple search should help you find a range of content.
