Gong Synthesis Using Csound

Lydia Ayers and Andrew Horner

  The Csound orchestra and score files currently only produce the sound of the Gong Ageng from the Kyai Parijata gamelan in the Museum Nusantara, Delft, the Netherlands, recorded by Geert Jan van Oldenborgh. The website with information on and samples of the gamelan is: http://www.marsudiraras.org/gamelan.

The following are the Csound files to synthesize the Gong Ageng: For more details about the Gong Ageng synthesis and musical uses, see the Proceedings of the 2005 Australasian Computer Music Conference and the 2005 International Computer Music Conference. We will add synthesis models for other gamelan instruments later.
