There are three good books that are freely available and available for
purchase, I give them in rough order of mathiness:

all the math: http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/techniques.htm

a request for pointers to useful docs/software/sites:

I'm a new user of pd, and have spent the last week getting to grips
with the basics: everything's working nicely so far. I'm not a sound
engineer or mathematician, but am not finding it hard to get around
the basics.

My main interest is in using pd alongside a Lemur controller to do
live processing of audio - ie. no samples, no synthesisers, just
processing whatever turns up on the line-in.

Is there any useful documentation, or good sites, etc., that would
help me along my way? I have a copy of Andy Farnell's excellent
'Designing Sound' but it doesn't go into the territory that
interests me most.

I have a couple of books by Curtis Rhodes but haven't read them yet

• they look a bit heavy to me ;-) I'd prefer a more practical

approach, like 'Designing Sound' but with a different focus.

I'm interested in:

1. documentation relating to live processing generally (general

approaches) 2. documentation about specific processing techniques 3. examples of processors in pd that I can study and use

can anyone help?

thanks
