A new book to help me get started using Pd

I knew Pure Data (Pd) for a while and faced the same problem as many people who try to get started using Pd did, we don’t know where to start. Today, Peter Kirn of CDM writes about the new book, Programming Electronic Music in Pd, by Johannes Kreidler. Here’s what Johannes explains about his book.

Loadbang is designed for self-study, principally for composers. It begins with explanations of basic programming and acoustic principles then gradually builds up to the most advanced electronic music processing techniques. The book’s teaching approach is focused primarily on hearing, which we consider a faster and more enjoyable way to absorb new concepts than through abstract formulas.

Actually I’ve Peter Kirn’s Real World Digital Audio waiting in my read-list, but this book make me hesitate which one to read first 🙂
