Technologies related to electronic music production

By: Aaron Sequeira

We will focus on the most outstanding technologies for modern electronic music production. Therefore, as in the previous book in which sections made the presentation of the instruments, this volume is made up of five of them for reasons of analytical practicality: 1. Audio recording and playback 2. Speakers 3. Communication protocols between electronic instruments 4. Modern electronic music production 5. DJing The first point will clarify how the ability to record sound in an analog mechanism was acquired just a moment ago if we compare that time with human existence. Therefore, since electronic music is intrinsically linked to the technique of sound recording and its playback, it is necessary to know about the technologies that have allowed this process since the 19th century. Subsequently, it will be explained what the speakers are and how their role and development in electronic music have been fundamental. As has already been elucidated throughout this series, it would be practically impossible for electronic music to exist without speakers. After that, we’ll see the two main protocols of communication between electronic instruments: MIDI and OSC, in addition to expressing my point of view about their transcendence because never, in the history of music in its entirety, the instruments had managed to sync through messages and time automation codes, under the master/ slave concept. Understanding the above, we will review all those technologies that facilitate modern electronic music production, such as a DAW, sound effects, sample manipulation, etc. Finally, we will explain the tools that the DJ uses to play, such as turntables, CD players, controllers, etc. Since each invention of these five points has its own story, I will limit myself to mentioning merely basic details so that the reader can investigate more for his account, topic by topic. As in the case of this series’ first and second volumes, the purpose is to establish a conceptual axis in which one can have a reference, not a detailed encyclopedia of each specific device.

Electronic Musical Instruments

By: Aaron Sequeira

We will address the historical development of the most relevant electronic instruments and explain each one without detailing their operation since many no longer operate today. In this sense, it is necessary to mention that it is not that the electronic instruments not developed in this volume do not matter, but that the importance of those addressed is much greater. Therefore, we will focus on the analysis of how they were manufactured and, where appropriate, how they evolved to become modern electronic music instruments. Since the design of new musical instruments has been complex, the instruments mentioned throughout this volume will not be explained primarily in technical detail. Still, the most relevant points will be mentioned as an introduction. Something that we must consider all the time when reading this volume is that all the instruments discussed have a common factor: their design has always been intrinsically linked to the technologies available to their inventor, depending on the time in which he lived. While many of them may seem somewhat outdated or childish when compared to those that exist today, we must never forget that most of these instruments ignored practices, aesthetic ideals, and industry standards about the time and place in which they were conceived, such as the ease of manufacture (the telharmonium is an incredible example), the sonic predictability and the economy of scale to be able to mass-manufacture them. For practical reasons, I have divided this volume into three sections: those developed in the 18th century, those produced in the 19th century, and finally, those manufactured in the 20th century, many of which are still in operation today. In this way, we will realize how most of the electronic instruments that are currently used are not more than a century old after they were manufactured for the first time, which is quite surprising. On the other hand, although a highly considerable number of patents for electronic instruments have been registered (especially in the 20th century), I have limited myself to mentioning the most relevant of them to have a notion of how it is that we got to the current point in this ambit. With this in mind, we will inevitably ask ourselves: Why have only very few of the electronic instruments discussed in this volume survived to date? Part of the answer to this question lies in the fact that those instruments that made it have had the capacity to adjust to the rapid and aggressive change of modernity, and because they have been conceived with too much intuition in mind; that is, they work perfectly or rarely fail, they generate familiarity in the consumer at the first contact, and their way of producing them has proven to be profitable for the investors behind the project or the company that manufactures them.

Isaac Albeniz

A Guide to Research

By: Walter Aaron Clark

This book presents the most up-to-date biography of the Spanish composer Isaac Albeniz (1860-1909) and is the first to offer a thorough, annotated bibliography in addition to an extensive discography, chronology, and list of works. The bibliography treats not only articles, books, dissertations, and exhibition publications, but also includes numerous reviews of his operas and other works. An overview of the nature and location of primary sources and the holdings of various archives (in England, France, Belgium, Germany, and Spain) is an especially useful feature of this book that is not available anywhere else. Alb niz's letters, manuscripts, library, photographs, and other important documents and personal effects are discussed. This guide to research sheds welcome light on one of the most important composers in the history of Spanish music, one whose works won the admiration of Faure, Debussy, and Messiaen, and exerted a profound influence on de Falla, Turina, and Rodrigo.

Scaling in Ecology with a Model System

By: Aaron Ellison,Nicholas J. Gotelli

A groundbreaking approach to scale and scaling in ecological theory and practice Scale is one of the most important concepts in ecology, yet researchers often find it difficult to find ecological systems that lend themselves to its study. Scaling in Ecology with a Model System synthesizes nearly three decades of research on the ecology of Sarracenia purpurea—the northern pitcher plant—showing how this carnivorous plant and its associated food web of microbes and macrobes can inform the challenging question of scaling in ecology. Drawing on a wealth of findings from their pioneering lab and field experiments, Aaron Ellison and Nicholas Gotelli reveal how the Sarracenia microecosystem has emerged as a model system for experimental ecology. Ellison and Gotelli examine Sarracenia at a hierarchy of spatial scales—individual pitchers within plants, plants within bogs, and bogs within landscapes—and demonstrate how pitcher plants can serve as replicate miniature ecosystems that can be studied in wetlands throughout the United States and Canada. They show how research on the Sarracenia microecosystem proceeds much more rapidly than studies of larger, more slowly changing ecosystems such as forests, grasslands, lakes, or streams, which are more difficult to replicate and experimentally manipulate. Scaling in Ecology with a Model System offers new insights into ecophysiology and stoichiometry, demography, extinction risk and species distribution models, food webs and trophic dynamics, and tipping points and regime shifts.
