Audio Programming Book Recommendations

[Nabeel Ansari]

Kinda has to do with this forum, since I want to make music production tools.

Anyways, anyone have a recommendation for a good audio programming book? Something that isn't afraid to get really math-y, but also provides lots of audio world context and possibly contains projects/practice examples?

I'm already familiar with and have written code working with transforms and convolution, so I understand the basic theory concepts behind complex exponentials and DFT. I would prefer something with theoretical explanations instead of just "here do this crap and cool sounds come out!"

EDIT:

I ended up ordering: http://www.amazon.com/Designing-Audio-Effect-Plug-Ins-Processing/dp/0240825152

It's a book with both a bunch of audio-specific exercises and still a decent amount of theory behind it.

Not exactly a book. But an interactive approach with much of the same information:

Thanks bro! I've seen this class before, but I avoided it because of its Linear Algebra recommendation (I haven't taken Linear yet and I don't want to really be stumbling around in the dark). I will probably end up taking this after I DO take Linear, which may be at some point next year.

Finding some basic Reaktor tutorials are not a bad way to delve into application of the theory as well. DSP can feel like a bit of black magic at times but just keep with it.
