DISSCO: A Unified Approach to Sound Synthesis and Composition
نویسندگان
چکیده
DISSCO (Digital Instrument for Sound Synthesis and Composition) represents a unified and comprehensive approach to sound synthesis and composition—unified in the sense that its components share a common formal approach and use similar tools, comprehensive in the sense that they deliver a final product (a musical “event”) that does not require further processing. DISSCO consists of two parts: LASS, a C++ Library for Additive Sound Synthesis, and CMOD, a C++ Composition Module. Release 1.0 of DISSCO is available as open-source software. This article discusses some underlying ideas of music composition and sound synthesis and describes implementation details in the context of LASS and CMOD.

Conceiving Music Today: Manifold Compositions, DISSCO and Beyond
Manifold compositions consist of all actual and potential variants of a work that contains elements of indeterminacy and is generated by a computer reading the same data for each variant. The relationship between manifolds and classes of composition is discussed and a tool (DISSCO) unifying composition and sound synthesis is presented. Deterministic and random processes facilitate by DISSCO are...
متن کاملA Unified Approach for Design of Lp Polynomial Algorithms
By summarizing Khachiyan's algorithm and Karmarkar's algorithm forlinear program (LP) a unified methodology for the design of polynomial-time algorithms for LP is presented in this paper. A key concept is the so-called extended binary search (EBS) algorithm introduced by the author. It is used as a unified model to analyze the complexities of the existing modem LP algorithms and possibly, help ...
متن کاملAn Empirical Comparison of Performance of the Unified Approach to Linearization of Variance Estimation after Imputation with Some Other Methods
Imputation is one of the most common methods to reduce item non_response effects. Imputation results in a complete data set, and then it is possible to use naϊve estimators. After using most of common imputation methods, mean and total (imputation estimators) are still unbiased. However their variances (imputation variances) are underestimated by naϊve variance estimators. Sampling mechanism an...

متن کاملAudiogarden: towards a Usable Tool for Composite Audio Creation
This project presents a new approach to sound composition for soundtrack composers and sound designers. We propose a tool for usable sound manipulation and composition that targets sound variety and expressive rendering of the composition. We first automatically segment audio recordings into atomic grains which are displayed on our navigation tool according to their timbre. To perform the synth...
