It's been about 15 years since I used Csound a lot. I purchased the Csound Book way back then and have the catalog on CD-ROM. I assume a lot has changed. Is there a new edition of the book or somewhere to see a catalog of instruments featuring recent developments? -Mike |

I should probably clarify that as a programmer, I don't need help with the technical details but I need more examples of sound design to learn from. I did see this newer book on Amazon and I will buy the kindle version. It does seem to have a lot of examples, but would I also benefit from a "sound design" book? Maybe not even specifically using Csound? Mike On Tue, Nov 23, 2021 at 2:27 AM Michael Mossey <michaelmossey@gmail.com> wrote:

In terms of general sound design for musical applications I think the previously mentioned "Csound - a sound and music computing system", is as good as any out there. On Tue, 23 Nov 2021 at 10:41, Michael Mossey <michaelmossey@gmail.com> wrote:

I'd also mention Victor Lazzarini's "Computer Music Instruments" which covers more traditional instruments and "Computer Music Instruments II" which looks at real-time performance. David Bowen On Tue, Nov 23, 2021 at 3:55 AM Rory Walsh <rorywalsh@ear.ie> wrote:

Two I got recently that I really like are Victor's "Spectral Music Design" and Andy Farnell's Pd book "Designing Sound". (Spectral is not a Springer book either so it's actually well priced!) If you're looking for how to make "real-world" type sounds, the Farnell book is just the ticket. I've heard it's very popular among video game sound designers.

Yes, the Farnell one is quite something in terms of the level of detail he goes into in designing the sounds. On Tue, 23 Nov 2021 at 16:42, Iain Duncan <iainduncanlists@gmail.com> wrote:

I haven't bought Victor's latest book because I figure he'll send me one for Christmas :) On Tue, 23 Nov 2021 at 16:49, Rory Walsh <rorywalsh@ear.ie> wrote:

I once spelled Victor's name wrong in the program for a concert. He was moderately, to extremely, annoyed by that. I really fear for the wellbeing of his publishers if they got this wrong!!

It was over 20 years ago. Where has the time gone. On Tue, 23 Nov 2021 at 21:45, Victor Lazzarini <Victor.Lazzarini@mu.ie> wrote:
