Can anyone recomend any Music/Audio DSP books, I've had a look about and found these:

A Digital Signal Processing Primer : With Applications to Digital Audio and Computer Music

Digital Audio Signal Processing

DSP Filter Cookbook

DAFX:Digital Audio Effects

Any others I should know about, anyone used any of these?

I have and recommend The Computer Music Tutorial by Curtis Roads: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0262680823/qid=1111881932/sr=8-3/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i3_xgl/202-4577729-2816668

Ah, that does look very interesting, thanks jorge. I'll check that one out.

thanks for your links too, do you have any of those books? do you recommend any of them in particular?

Unfortunetly not, I think I'm going to try to get some copies of them (girlfriends a librarian) then buy which one/ones I find the most usefull, I'll let you know what I think when I get a hold of them.

If you go for the Computer Music Tutorial you might want to invest in a trolley to transport it around in - it's massive! 😉

Thaks for that link stefancrs, looks like a very interesting read, just printing off the first hundred pages at the minute, I'm also pretty tempted by the computer music tutorial, big is good 🙂 also, not specifically for audio/music, but there's a free online DSP book here, http://www.dspguide.com/ I've not yet read it myself, but it's meant to be good.
