Arne,

Your best bet is probably to try and get in touch with Larry. I dont have his
e-mail address handy but he teaches at Dartmouth College. A search there should
be easy. TeX is a Unix document formatting protocol, similar to postscript.
THere are, I believe, some translators for Mac and PC.

Best

I tried to derive a granular texture from a sample using the GRAIN unit,
but, I dunno why,
no matter how I tweak the variables of the unit, the texture always sounds
like
a saw machine, very harsh, and always rather high pitched. It can't get a
massive texture out of it.
I mean a more "soft" texture.

David.

score files.
