DAFX is a synonym for digital audio effects. It is also the name for a European research project for co-operation and scientific transfer, namely EU-COST-G6 “Digital Audio Effects” (1997–2001). It was initiated by Daniel Arfib (CNRS, Marseille). In the past couple of years we have had four EU-sponsored international workshops/conferences on DAFX, namely, in Barcelona (DAFX-98), Trondheim (DAFX-99), Verona (DAFX-00) and Limerick (DAFX-01). A variety of DAFX topics have been presented by international participants at these conferences. The papers can be found on the corresponding web sites
