If you’re reading hackaday you’re the kind of person who Csound should appeal to!
I’m throwing a few beginner notes in my blog, which you might want to check out to see if it’s on any help to you.

I wanted to build a simple FM Synth in Pd and what I got was a cluttered mess of boxes and lines. The same synth in csound is a mere 3 lines:

kmod oscili p6, p7, 1
aout oscili p4, p5 + kmod, 1
outs aout, aout

He takes weekly courses on Csound and swears by it:

Max/MSP and Reaktor may remain my tools of choice (or Pd for a free alternative), but I’m increasingly respecting Csound in the modern age. Maybe I should play with that tool for bring Pd into Max.

wow . . . my caps are gone! This site is like a copy editor’s worse nightmare. ;-)

also, csound doesn’t care about the number of spaces (or tab size) as long as there is at least one space between fields. the files should still render even if the spacing is messy.

Spiffy.

I just realized, Hackaday’s first post is Sept 5 2004. That means, that the 1 year anniversary of Hackaday is coming up!

It was a blast. I still have a few of my orc’s and sco’s around somewhere. Will have to drag em out and try them with the new real-time renderer and see how it goes. I used to have to wait for a LONG time to get some of the granular synthesis stuff to render on those old G3′s.
