仅仅25年前，计算机音乐还是一种昂贵的实验室奢侈品，现在它正进入公共领域。廉价的数字键盘和相关硬件比钢琴更广泛。这21篇原创文章由作曲家、行为科学家、工程师和来自许多国际计算机音乐研究中心的其他专家撰写，提供了关于数字合成、控制和理解音乐声音以及感知相关工作的最复杂方面的内部报告。使用计算机来分析和合成复杂的声音，导致了对人类感知的这一关键方面的更快、更准确的实验研究。本书中的许多章节提供了对声音和听觉的新见解。这些包括响度，掩蔽和双耳现象的调查，以及对声音感知音高的广泛研究，其中许多声音与自然界中听到的声音相距甚远。其中涵盖的具体主题是语音歌曲，合成的歌声，空间混响，傅立叶变换为基础的音色操纵，模拟弓乐器，自动对位，并利用机械指挥棒的指挥程序。马修斯和皮尔斯共同撰写的一章描述了他们在过去几年中一直在研究的一种新的音乐音阶。马修斯和约翰R.皮尔斯是斯坦福大学音乐系的成员。两人都在贝尔电话实验室度过了他们职业生涯的大部分时间，马修斯在那里指导声学和行为研究中心，皮尔斯指导通信科学部门。系统开发基金会是计算机音乐研究的第一批主要支持者之一。
An expensive laboratory luxury just 25 years ago, computer music is now entering the public domain. Inexpensive digital keyboards and related hardware are more widely available than the piano. These 21 original contributions by composers, behavioral scientists, engineers, and other specialists from many of the international centers of research in computer music provide an inside report on the most sophisticated aspects of digital synthesis, control and understanding of musical sound, and related work on perception. The use of the computer to analyze and synthesize complex sounds has resulted in faster and more accurate experimental study of this key aspect of human perception. Many of the chapters in this book provide new insights into sounds and hearing. These include the investigation of loudness, masking, and binaural phenomena, and also an extensive study of the perceived pitch of sounds, many of which are remote from sounds ever heard in nature. Among the specific topics covered are speech songs, synthesis of the singing voice, spatial reverberation, Fourier-transform-based timbral manipulations, the simulation of bowed instruments, automatic counterpoint, and a conductor program utilizing a mechanical baton. A chapter authored jointly by Mathews and Pierce describes a new musical scale they have been working on over the past few years. Max V. Mathews and John R. Pierce are members of the music faculty at Stanford University. Both spent the major part of their professional lives at Bell Telephone Laboratories, where Mathews directed the Acoustical & Behavioral Research Center, and Pierce directed the Communication Sciences Division.Current Directions in Computer Music Research isincluded in the System Development Foundation Benchmark series. The System Development Foundation was one of the first major supporters of computer music research.
