CsoundXML: A Meta-Language in XML for
\nSound Synthesis<\/b><\/font>
Pedro Kroeger, Paper for
\nthe ISMIR 2004 Conference<\/font><\/p>\n

“Music N has
\nmany advantages such as unit generators and a flexible
\nscore<\/font>
language, [but] it presents a few
\nproblems like limitations on
\ninstrument<\/font>
reuse, inflexibility of use of
\nparameters, lack of a built-in
\ngraphical<\/font>
interface, and usually only one
\nparadigm for scores. In this paper the<\/font>
author
\ninvestigates the problem of creating a meta-language for
\nsound<\/font>
synthesis. This constitutes an elegant
\nsolution for the above cited<\/font>
problems,
\nwithout the need of a yet new acoustic compiler
\nimplementation,<\/font>
allowing a tight integration
\nwhich is difficult to obtain with the<\/font>
present
\nuser tools. Although CsoundXML is not a universal language,
\nit<\/font>
is compatible with the Csound orchestra
\nformat, and consequently, other<\/font>
programs in
\nthe Music N family. The greatest advantage of [our]
\napproach<\/font>
is that the GUI is created from a
\nregular CsoundXML, that is, no<\/font>
specific
\ngraphical information has to be coded in the instrument. The
\nGUI<\/font>
is generated automatically. Data can
\neasily be obtained from the<\/font>
instrument by
\nusing Xpath queries. Instrument reuse is made possible
\nby<\/font>
a high-level description, named
\ninstruments, flexible signal input
\nand<\/font>
output, and mainly the possibility to be
\nable to define multiple outputs<\/font>
depending on
\ncontext. Unlike other solutions that add graphical
\ncommands<\/font>
in the instrument, the meta-language
\nXML structure allows the automatic<\/font>
creation
\nof graphical instruments, without extra
\nopcodes.<\/font><\/p>\n
