Kyma X Revealed!

The best way to familiarize yourself with Kyma and all of its possibilities...

Kyma X Revealed! guides you through every aspect of the powerful Kyma X sound design language. Bursting with step-by-step tutorials, tips, shortcuts, and sound design techniques, the book is written in an entertaining style that makes it fun and informative for the novice and power user alike.

Even if you are new to Kyma, you’ll quickly learn how to process your own voice, morph, cross-synthesize, and granulate sound within the first section. Kyma veterans will be happy to find a wealth of new material documenting recent additions in the latest release. Advanced users will be excited to discover extensive new chapters on programming and scripting in Kyma.

By reading this book:

• You’ll learn how to use and extend Kyma’s Sound Library, tweak parameters using the Virtual Control Surface, and combine Sounds in the Timeline.
• Next, you’ll see how to modify and create new Sounds using the graphical signal flow editor, how to control sound parameters with faders, and how to drag-and-drop arithmetic fader expressions from the Expressions Library into your Sound parameter fields.

• If you’re into coding, you’ll be delighted to find the in-depth chapters on the Smalltalk programming language, CapyTalk (the real time parameter event language), and chapters on how to use both for algorithmic sound design and programming custom Tools.

Reading Kyma X Revealed! is like attending one of the Kyma Immersion Weekends (but better, since it covers far more material than is possible to cover in the two day immersions). The unpretentious, humorous style conveys the author’s genuine enthusiasm and love for the topics of sound design, audio signal processing, and computer music.

You’ll discover the depth, the imaginativeness and the sense of fun that convinced Electronic Musician magazine to dub Kyma "the most powerful sound design workstation on the planet"!
