Basic Sound Synthesis and Transformation Techniques (Csound)


Description

    The files below use Csound to implement demonstrations of basic sound synthesis and sound transformation techniques. They are used as examples integrated in courses (CNSMD of Lyons), and rely on verbal introductions and comments, complementary informations, graphs, pictures, etc. Included terse comments are in French. The files are currently used with MacCsound, on Macintosh. French accented characters and line changes may not be correctly displayed under other environments. See adjoining LISP Course for details about Macintosh/PC versions when available.
