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: archer@trans4um.demon.co.uk 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. Several CDP members have been privileged to contribute to this book, including Rajmil Fischman, Richard Dobson and Archer Endrich (see below). For those watching their 'learning curve', this is a hugely important new reference work.

The Csound Catalog with audio which is now available.
