Book Reviews of The Computer Music Tutorial
Book Review: "tutorial" in a sense
Summary: 5 Stars
Just a brief note -- this isn't a "tutorial" in the sense that the word has taken on in computer circles in the past few years -- i.e., "here's how to do some simple things without really understanding how you're doing them, because you're too much of a doof to read the real documentation". I say this because I don't want anyone expecting such a thing for computer music to be disappointed by this excellent book -- so don't expect example C code on how to parse MIDI in here!However, this is a tutorial in the older sense of being a work that aims to instruct you in a particular subject. And that it does very well!
