Hi Samuel,<div><br></div><div>I don't know about any literature about recreating electronic music but I know of at least another effort of this kind: <a href="http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/pdrp/latest/files/doc/">http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/pdrp/latest/files/doc/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>I wonder why MaxMSP is being used for this. I would have thought that an effort to recreate (and perhaps archive) some historical music that requires to be run in software would use open source software in order to 1) potentially reach wider audience and 2) ensure that the music can be performed in unforeseeable future, even if some technology becomes obsolete. The chances of reviving a dead proprietary software are rather slim, especially if the source code is not available for public consumption.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So, for instance, Pd is free, open source, runs on almost all possible operating systems and platforms including iOs, Android etc. Wouldn't it be more suitable for this kind of project? Of course all my arguments are moot if the only reason for this recreation is an exercise to learn MaxMSP and is not intended to be published to a wider audience, which would be rather unfortunate.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Just wondering...</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>./MiS</div><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Apr 9, 2011 at 3:21 PM, Samuel van ransbeeck <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:thinksamuel@yahoo.com">thinksamuel@yahoo.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

This will involve porting the patches to MaxMSP 5. Of course we will have to write report and papers about it. Now, I was wondering if anyone could suggest me interesting literature about the recreation of old electronic music.<br>
