Music Technology Now and in the Future
David M Howard
Any arbitrary sound can be created using technology and of course, electronically created sounds can be used to make music. “Connecting” the player, composer or user into the sound creation system involves the provision of an interface with which a musician can make music in a performance situation. This lecture will consider the needs of the musician in terms of both sound creation, sound modification and sound real-time control and it will illustrate this with interfaces from the past and present as well as some that might well be seen in the future. |
