Fun with csound: by Hira Aftab
The purpose behind this
composition is to experiment around with different techniques in CSound.The main objective was to explore and have fun
with CSound,since the
only way to create music is to be creative with it and experiment. The
sound of drum instrument was taken from
http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/csound/instruments/simple_drum.html and other simple
instruments were also created using tutorials from CSounds
Chapter1 as a reference.The sound files used have
been taken from CSoundBook Chapter1 source files.To contour the loudness during the course of each
note,an additional unit generator
"linen" has been used.
Instruments used:
a. instr 1 :- used to create sound of a
drum
b. instr 105 :- sample-based looping
oscillator
c. instr 106 :- another
sample-based looping oscillator
d. instr 107 :- a third sample-based
looping oscillator
Flow diagram:
wav files used were "Marimba.aif" , "
sing.aif", "hellorcb.aif" .All three files were taken
from CSoundBook Chapter 1 sample files.
Enveloping
was applied to the output of each instrument to remove clicks etc
