I was wondering if some of you have a hint how to 
simulate a handclap sound in csound.
I made a simple simulation of Clapping Music from 
S. Reich and I'm now looking for a nice sound.
Thanks for any help.
Best,
Luís

You should probably be able to simulate something fairly close to a
hand clap by ring modulating a noise source with an oscillator as
described by Dodge and Jerse. In my edition(1985) it's around page 92.

E' un ottimo libro che introduce le principali tecniche di analisi e sintesi
con riferimenti
a musiche che le usano.

ciao,

Have you looked at the following: ampdb, ampdbfs, db, dbamp, dbfsamp

Perhaps they can be of some help to you.

Indeed. It's a really great book. Maybe I should update my copy
however. Bought used for $3 dollars on Amazon. Best $3 ever spent!

Something like this?

instr 1
kamp = 1
kamp = kamp*ampdb(-6)
printk .5, kamp
endin
