Hi list,
	I've just taken delivery of a new book, containing much interesting
and useful stuff: scales and different tuning systems; FM synthesis (with
lots on the DX7); Karplus-Strong; sampling; Fourier analysis; and much more
besides. I expect others will find it interesting too:

Music: A Mathematical Offering
David J. Benson
Cambridge University Press, Nov 2006, 0521853877

Here's the authors page for it:

<http://www.maths.abdn.ac.uk/~bensondj/html/maths-music.html>

which has a complete contents listing, and more importantly for some, there
is downloadable pdf of it there too!
