Publications
CDP members are active researching and writing about electroacoustic
music topics. The following list details a number of them. If you
have work which you would like to have us publicise, please send information
to Archer: archerhgm(at)talktalk.net for inclusion on this list.
Boulanger, Richard:
- The Csound Book: Perspectives in Software Synthesis, Sound Design, Signal Processing, & Programming. It is now published and
available at http://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/item/default.asp?ttype=2&tid=3349. Several CDP members have been privileged to contribute to this book, including Rajmil Fischman, Richard Dobson and Archer Endrich (see below). It comes with 2 CD-ROMs filled with additional articles, musical compositions and working Csound instruments. For those interested in exploring Csound, this is a most comprehensive reference work.
- The Csound Catalog with audio has a vast number of sound
samples, scores etc. It is available at
http://www.csounds.com/catalog/

- The Audio Programming Book, ed. Richard Boulanger and Victor
Lazzarini. The MIT Press, Cambridge, Mass., 2010. This monumental
publication contains clear and precise information about programming
audio applications, which should be of great benefit to and may very
well mark a turning point for the next generation of composer-programmers. The URL for orders is
