"Todd is the resident composer of Ashland Oregon's Shakespeare Festival among other things. He wrote an article a few years back on Metasynth ( see http://www.uisoftware.com/MetaSynth/index.php) . The article does a very good job of placing that software and synthesis into a context of actual music production for theatre (as opposed as to yet another TB303 groove). Metasynth allows you to visualize a sound clip as an onscreen graphix and then manipulate the image to work changes into the sound and vice versa. It's kind of like the offspring between Fruitlyoops BeepMap and SonicCharge SynPlant where sound derivation is indirect thru image manipulation. - interesting stuff indeed.
The article is at http://toddbarton.com/library/sound_advice_article.pdf
His site is pretty interesting too. www.toddbarton.com Shakespeare and synths - cool stuff -
Prithy, wouldst thou resonate with my four pole filter that I might divine thy note?
