cc1 - week 1 - DME's

In this lesson we, once again, went through the outline of the subject, talking about what was involved in the class and what we would be learning about. Once that was done, we were introduced to Desktop Music Environments (DME's). We talked about the two levels of DME's, being audio and MIDI, the computing systems you can work with them (OSX & Tiger) which is an application programming interface (API) and how to use them on a basic level. We also talked about the operating system levels and the application levels.
Lastly we learnt the definiation of a buffer, being " a temporary storage area for sound".
