Hello,


Im just starting to learn about csound. I think i will take centuries to learn something of it if i dont get a book. Next week i will ask for some book on USA, so i could ask for a csound one.

Can you recomend me some?

 

Thanks in advance,

Hello again,

First of all apologies to anyone who is waiting on the 
multichannel to DirectSound3D player (if anyone of 
course) - its being worked on but I have been away for 
christmas. 

While I was away I had a chance to work through some of 
the stuff in Curtis Roads and Dodge books (both highly 
recomended) and discovered FOF synthesis. Does anyone 
have any concrete examples I can play with - when I started 
playing with the operator I discovered that without a 
model of how different parameters effect things I am 
really stabbing in the dark. I worked through the excellent 
tutorial in the CSound manual and have got some vaguely 
vowel sounds from the tables in the Dodge book (although 
his percentages for vibrato sounded very high I had to 
reduce them a lot). What I am looking for is more speech 
type stuff - I've got lots of lovely samples of emulaters and 
mellotrons for the more choral stuff. I don't want it to sound 
realistic but I do like the quality of FOF sounds...

cheers
