Re: More dancing about architecture, recommend a modular book ?

1999-03-04 by Hugo Haesaert

Hi All !

Strange, been buying books about synths and EM for many years now, 
and have not come across these works at all .  Found a lot on EM and 
computermusic though (much MIT press) .

If one does'nt mind printing one's own, i suggest surfing to :

http://www.tellus.vallentuna.se/gymninfo/personal/anders/andersus.html

and download the Digisound user manual (with the full docs if how it 
works stuff is needed), the Formant docs, and the Wireless world 
synthesiszer docs .  This should cover some of the basics .

Looking at the one chapter online  (and the other stuff on his site 
:) ), the synthesizer tutorial by Andre Stordeur looks pretty good, 
too .
Details on :

And in a book list i always plug Musical Applications of 
Microprocessors by Hal Chamberlin .  This deals with both analogue 
and digital ways to produce and twist waveforms, with a lot more 
thrown in .  Very well written, can provide a wide background, also 
from the nuts and bolts perspective .  Out of print, but can be 
ordered from the author .  See Paia site for more details :

Hope this helps somewhat .


Keep 'em oscillating :)
