As suggested by the welcome email, I'm briefly introducing myself as a new subscriber. I'm an (extremely) novice Csound user, but I have been deeply interested in synthetic and computer music for over 20 years, since I first composed electronic and concrete music in college in the late 70's (on a Grey Meanie Arp 2600 - which I still own). I've also worked with MIDI quite a lot. Careerwise, I've been working in the fields of computer graphics and animation for the last 15 years, and now am what you'd call a technology analyst, working in Cambridge MA. So far my experience with Csound has been mostly on the PC, but as we recently bought an iMac at home I will also be using the PowerPC version. I was curious - does anyone on the list have experience running Csound on one of the new Athlon (AMD-K7) processors? The floating-point on these processors is pretty impressive, compared to the PIII. Looking forward to learning lots through the list. - Jeremy Schwartz.
