Legacy Code for the Learning Audio Engineer: Examples in C++

Explore the challenges and opportunities of working with legacy code in C++ for audio engineering through a conference talk from the Audio Developer Conference 2023. Dive into a case study of a large refactoring project in Ableton Live's 20+ year old codebase, examining the motivations, lessons learned, and outcomes. Gain insights on evaluating when to undertake such projects and how to approach them effectively. Learn about improving engineering practices and understanding complex codebases through hands-on experience with legacy systems. Benefit from the speaker's experience in audio software development, including work on audio plugins and Ableton Live. Access accompanying slides for visual reference and deeper understanding of the concepts presented.
