Hi Nic, for what I read about it, I think microsound, isn't really a Genre, but more a technique.<br>There are diferent ways to go using "microsounds", for instance one of the most used/known is the granular synthesis.<br>
You can search some stuff from Curtis Roads, he made a lot of digital granular synthesis, and he also has some books about it.<br>I am sure more people in here will have more insight than me to explain how to use microsounds on your music.<br>
<br>Best of luck in your journey<br><br>RRL<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/10/18 Dominic Pflaum <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dompflaum@gmail.com">dompflaum@gmail.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
I've found it hard to find audio example of the music? Have you any good examples? <br><br>Best of luck!<br><br>Dom<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 18, 2010 at 3:54 AM, Nic Freed <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:beatthefinalboss@gmail.com" target="_blank">beatthefinalboss@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

data, and am now into a state of familiarity with the PD interface and<br>
common synthesis methods, along with most of the basic ideas and<br>
knowledge needed to begin patching. I have received quite a bit of<br>
help from the #dataflow irc channel, so everyone from the chat also on<br>
this list, I would like to say thank you! :)<br>
<br>
Anyway, the reason I am posting to this list is to ask about the<br>
techniques used in the genre known as microsound, which is explained<br>
in brief detail at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsound" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsound</a><br>
<br>
I would like to learn the sort of techniques I can use in PD in<br>
application for the genre, since it seems ideal for such music, since<br>
you can work directly on a sample-by-sample basis. Also, if anyone<br>
here has firsthand experience in the genre, suggestions on books,<br>
media, and examples would be greatly appreciated!<br>
<br>
I apologize if this email is a bit forward, or is not correctly<br>
formatted for use in mailing list. This is my first time posting to a<br>
mailing list, so let me know if I did something incorrectly and I<br>
would be very thankful.<br>
<br>
Thank you for taking the time to respond!<br>
