À propos de ce cours : In this course you will learn about audio signal processing methodologies that are specific for music and of use in real applications. We focus on the spectral processing techniques of relevance for the description and transformation of sounds, developing the basic theoretical and practical knowledge with which to analyze, synthesize, transform and describe audio signals in the context of music applications. The course is based on open software and content. The demonstrations and programming exercises are done using Python under Ubuntu, and the references and materials for the course come from open online repositories. We are also distributing with open licenses the software and materials developed for the course.

Notation et examens
Excellent course to understand DSP, Fourier Transform and Audio Programming.
An excellent course, particularily when enhanced by reading the four book series by Juli us O. Smith III.
Allowing one to continue into the next semester while keeping credit for work done is a major
plus point for the course. It actually took me about a year to complete and the alloted ten weeks would be an extremely demanding schedule.
This course is amazing I wish I can give 6 stars
