| An easy to read, systems oriented approach to linearity and linear
systems. Analog friendly. |
| [Opp01] |
Oppenheim, Alan V.; Schafer, Pierre: Digital Signal Processing, second edition |
| A real bible for anyone wanting to really understand DSP. Serves
both as a good introduction and a comprehensive reference. |
| [Knu01] |
Knuth, Donald E.: The Art of Computer Programming |
|
A huge encyclopædia containing just about all general purpose
algorithms anyone ever invented. A must‐have for anyone doing
serious programming work. |
| [Num01] |
Numerical Recipes in C, second edition |
| One of the signal processing freak’s must‐read works. The
commitment of the authors is shown in the fact that the latest
edition is available on‐line, in Adobe .pdf, free of charge and
with a permission for the user to produce a single paper copy.
Read it, use it and be sure to credit it when the time comes. |
| [Roa01] |
Roads, Curtis: The Computer Music Tutorial |
| A quite all‐encompassing reference on all aspects of computer
music, digital audio and related areas of study. The emphasis
is on practical applications. Easy, entertaining and
comprehesive—a true bible. Lacks somewhat in
implementation details, however. |
| [Roa02] |
Roads, Curtis (ed.): The Music Machine |
| A selection of articles from the Computer Music Journal.
Discusses some interesting points, but isn’t as solid as the
Computer Music Tutorial. More oriented towards technology and
specific solutions. Many of the useful formulæ can be found
here. |
