This work would not have been possible without the
support of many people. In particular, I thank Julius Smith
for his frequent advice, enthusiasm, technical know-how
and friendship. I also thank John Chowning for allowing
me to use the facilities and resources of CCRMA. But most
of all I thank my wife, Sherry, for her love and support and
faith in me.
This work was supported in part by Dynacord.
