See Audio Synth.
At first, I imagined the problem was going to be PyAudio. This package has a bunch of installers. But the installers don't recognize Python 3.4, so none of them work for me. The common fallback plan is to install from source, but, I couldn't find the source. That looks like a problem.
Once I spotted this: "% git clone http://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/git/pyaudio.git", things were much better. I built the PortAudio library. I installed PyAudio for Python3.4. Things are working. Noises are happening.
Next step is actual synth.
In the past, I have played with pysynth because it has some examples of wave-table additive synth. That's very handy. The examples are hard to follow because a lot of the synth ideas are conflated into small functions.
Complication: The pysynth package is Python2. It lacks even the simple from __future__ import print_function to make it attempt Python3 compatibility.
The pysynth.play_wav module could be a handy wrapper around various audio playback technologies, include pyaudio. It has to be tweaked, however, to make it work with Python3.4. I really need to clone the project, make the changes, and put in a pull request.
The pysynth.pysynth and pysynth.pysynth_beeper modules are helpful for seeing how wave tables work. How much rework to make these work with Python3.4? And how much reverse engineering to understand the math?
I've since found pyo. Which is also Python 2. See the AjaxSoundStudio pages for details. This may be a better example of wave tables. But it's still Python2. More investigation to follow.
The good news is that there's some forward motion.
