Could you build this?

No This is bare-metal embedded C/C++ DSP synthesizer firmware running on microcontroller hardware, requiring low-level hardware timers, DAC/I2S audio buffers, and real-time digital signal processing algorithms.

What it would actually take: Developing embedded synth firmware requires an embedded C/C++ toolchain (ARM Cortex-M), CMSIS/HAL drivers for the target MCU, real-time audio pipeline architecture with low-latency DMA double buffering, and customized DSP algorithms for multi-oscillator anti-aliased superwaves, envelope generators, and filters. Specialized expertise in embedded systems, register-level hardware interfacing, and digital signal processing is mandatory.
