"The evils of aliasing " topic shows up in at least 2 places, and couldcreep
into more.

Is DSP a prereq?  What about Digital Logic?  Can I take the class remotely
from Buffalo, NY?

How about an early lecture reviewing the physics of sound,acoustics, analog
electronics (tubes into SS into ICs, the brief reign ofdedicated synth
chips, the introduction of digital controls, and finallydigital audio.

That would be nice :).

You can cover the evils of aliasing with regard to both audio(digital oscs /
waveshaping / filters / etc.) as well as the use ofdigitized control
parameters, which dates back to Obies, Prophets, etc.Aliasing will also come
into play if/when you cover digitally-generated CVs(e.g., for envelopes).

If the students have gone though a signals class, or more specifically a DSP
class, they would know about all of this stuff.

I'm sorry about responding twice when I have no place to do so, but will you
be covering any advanced electronic music techniques, like Linear Predictive
Coding (LPC) (which can be used in radar, wireless communications and other
fields) that was developed for the purpose of music?
