The term "microsound" was, I think, first used by Xenakis in _Formalized
Music_, but only in the English translation. The chapters in the English
edition which are not in the French original were based on articles
published elsewhere in French. If anyone has the citation for the
original French articles, particularly the one entitled "New Proposals
in Microsound Structure," one could discover what Xenakis' original
French term was. But I suspect it was "micro-son".
