{{Short description|API for audio synthesis}}
The '''Synthesis Toolkit''' ('''STK''') is an [[open source]] [[Application programming interface|API]] for [[Real-time computing|real time]] [[audio synthesis]] with an emphasis on classes to facilitate the development of [[physical modelling]] synthesizers. It is written in [[C++]] and is written and maintained by [[Perry Cook]] at [[Princeton University]] and [[Gary Scavone]] at [[McGill University]]. It contains both low-level synthesis and [[signal processing]] classes ([[oscillator]]s, [[audio filter|filter]]s, etc.) and higher-level [[Tool|instrument]] classes which contain examples of most of the currently available physical modelling [[algorithm]]s in use today. STK is free software,<ref>https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/stk/faq.html</ref> but a number of its classes, particularly some physical modelling algorithms, are covered by patents held by Stanford University and Yamaha.<ref>https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/stk/classstk_1_1Mandolin.html#_details</ref>▼

The STK is used widely in creating [[software]] synthesis applications. Versions of the STK instrument classes have been integrated into [[ChucK]], [[CSound|Csound]], [[Real-Time Cmix]], [[Max/MSP]] (as part of [[PeRColate]]), [[SuperCollider]] and [[FAUST (programming language)|FAUST]].<ref>https://code.google.com/p/stk-faust/</ref> It has been ported to [[SymbianOS]] and [[iOS]] as well.<ref>Georg Essl, Michael Rohs, [http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~gessl/georg_papers/icmc2006mobilestk.pdf Mobile STK for Symbian OS] Deutsche Telekom Laboratories, TU-Berlin</ref>▼
