Haha thanks for the correction man. Total derp.
Elements of Computer Music by Richard Moore is another great one if you want to get deep into the nitty-gritty of audio DSP. The code is all in C, and it was written in 1990, so some of it is mildly outdated- but the theory is still relevant, and you can implement everything in a more modern language. It's on the more low-level theory side, where Pirkle is mostly focused on application, and getting to practical uses as quickly as possible. It's a really cool book to read, even if you don't follow along with the exercises.
These three books have been a huge help to me:
Elements of Computer Music by F. Richard Moore
Computer Music by Charles Dodge
The Computer Music Tutorial by Curtis Roads
They are geared toward music, but they explain in fair depth methods of DSP design and sound generation algorithms. A strong background in math is helpful, but not required.
