Blog About Csound

Csound is a c-based audio programming language. It is called Csound because it is written in C, as opposed to the programs before it. Even though it was started by a single man by the name of Barry Vercoe, many developers have aided with its production. Csound takes two specially formatted text files as input called the orchestra and the score. The orchestra describes the instruments, and the score describes the notes and the other parameters. Csound processes the both the orchestra and the score and renders an audio file as output.
