Hello everyone! Im new to this mailing list, so I thought I would do a short
introduction and also answer one of the questions that I saw about the
Euterpea-related compositions.
My name is Donya Quick and Im third year PhD student at Yale. My advisor is
Paul Hudak, who got me hooked on Euterpea for both composing and
research in my
first year. Its been great being able to merge my computer science background
with my lifelong hobby of composing.
I very like the examples and I am very curious about the Haskell
sources that produce those results! Are there samples contained, that
are not generated in Haskell or is there some arrangement that was
not done in Haskell?
Since Glove was already discussed, Ill give some more info on mine.
There are
two ways that I have used Euterpea to make my compositions: as a way to create
samples for use with other software and as a complete composing tool in
itself.
I recently broke the examples on my page into those two categories.
When I use Euterpea to create samples for compositions, I do use some extra
software during the composing and recording process - namely a MIDI editor and
the sf2 and environmental effects features from my Audigy 2ZS sound card. For
the two examples I posted that use this method, the score was created
in a more
standard way with the aid of a MIDI score editor, while the performance
utilizes
Euterpea-made samples for the instruments and some amount of reverb from my
sound card. Fantasy for Bottles uses exclusively Euterpea samples, while
Temporal Lobe uses samples from other sources as well. Four of the other
compositions I have on my page (Poem for a Sine Wave through
Untitled) were
generated directly as wav output with just a text editor, Euterpea, and GHC.
Hopefully that will help to better explain how I produced those mp3s.
One of the
things I hope to do in the near future is to clean up and better document the
source code for a couple of them so that they can serve as tutorials.

First, my group has designed a new computer music library that I call
Euterpea (named after Euterpe, the Greek muse of music). Euterpea has all
of the original functionality of Haskore, plus an arrow-based signal
processing language for doing audio processing and sound synthesis. It also
has a GUI for creating sliders, pushbuttons, and so on. Instructions for
downloading Euterpea can be found here:
You also told earlier that you have pure Haskell audio processing
code. But that is not part of CCA (Commutative Causal Arrows) or
Euterpea? (Btw. I did not understand why CCA needs both a
preprocessor and Template Haskell, I thought that one of it should be
enough.)
Also, here is a link to some compositions, mostly by my grad student Donya
Quick, all done entirely in Euterpea:
