At the Sounding Edge: What's Going On with Csound? (Linux Journal)

[Posted April 15, 2005 by cook]

Dave Phillips reviews the Csound5 software sound synthesis language, in a Linux Journal article. "Csound has been in development since the 1970s, predating personal computers. As might be expected, its codebase has become a bit dusty, particularly regarding modern programming techniques. Csound's ease of extensibility has promoted a great broadening of its processing powers, but at the lower levels, the code currently is undergoing a complete revision. Almost every aspect of the original source tree has come under new scrutiny that should result in a faster, more efficient Csound."
