Dronecaster + crow

tyleretters · 2020-08-27T10:04:29.548Z

that’d be so awesome!! let me know if you’d like support getting setup for developing.

tyleretters · 2020-09-07T17:55:10.219Z

four gorgeous new drones and a solid refactor thanks to @zebra!

rdfm · 2020-09-07T18:08:54.451Z

these are so wild! i’ve been zoning out to these new ones all morning. crazy what can be done (with what seems to me) such little SC code. really inspiring

On the latest image: 200712,

also tried deleting dronecaster and reinstalling with a restart in between.

zebra · 2020-09-08T16:18:57.704Z

something funky happened with the merge / release, my fault sorry.

two options:

quick fix:
- change setDrone to start here
  https://github.com/tyleretters/dronecaster/blob/main/engine/Engine_Dronecaster.sc#L109
get the latest from this PR:
- add my fork: git add remote catfact http://github.com/catfact/dronecaster.git
- checkout PR branch: git fetch --all, git checkout zebra_breaks_everything

(the PR just replaces NodeProxy with a custom class that limits number of active crossfades so norns doesn’t blow up when xfading heavy synths.)

tyleretters · 2020-09-08T16:46:59.440Z

just merged, so you can update via maiden.

super strange this happened as i tested it on my norns. alas, sorry about that @Taubaland!

SPIKE · 2020-09-09T06:11:34.444Z

hey ya!

ran the update tonight to check out all the new noiz…but…sadly…no noiz.

also had a SuperCollider fail when i first tried to run it.
restarted from SLEEP.

not sure if there is any helpful info in there.

i usually jump to SuperSaw just to get noiz levels to start with.

Taubaland · 2020-09-09T06:23:05.067Z

same error for me.

@zebra 's quick fix worked for me though. Just need to change one line of code!

vehka · 2020-09-09T06:29:17.687Z

I updated via maiden about 12 hours ago and everything works for me.

The new drones are awesome!

SPIKE · 2020-09-09T06:36:26.510Z

heh.
and the reason why i don’t mess with code…

error: load fail

i even tried uninstalling and did a fresh install.
no luck.

i’ll just wait till it’s all fixed.

zebra · 2020-09-09T09:25:24.154Z

sorry i don’t know whats been up with this. one problem is i haven’t had access to actual norns, so have not tested all the command bindings, but could have sworn this bit looked ok. (ed: nope, just me being tired.)

it seems almost certain that this PR is now good. added a drone too

tyleretters · 2020-09-09T12:31:51.641Z

just merged and tested on norns. sounding great. the crossfades are such really nice touch.

Cementimental · 2020-09-09T13:50:46.739Z

thanks!

Forgive me for being a noob. This all looks really fascinating. How would I use this? Assume I know nothing.

SPIKE · 2020-09-10T23:06:45.161Z

you could use it as a bizarre noiz source.
feed it back into itself to record as source material for MANGL or OOOOOO or any number of noiz manipulation scripts.

or just do what i do…
turn it on loud as FRACK and make the neighbors wary of going near you domain.

tommys · 2020-09-10T23:07:51.952Z

I think I need you to a few steps back, sorry. I download the github rare - then what? Is there an idiots guide to getting started?

tyleretters · 2020-09-10T23:24:54.060Z

sure! do you have a norns?

tommys · 2020-09-11T09:00:54.381Z

Ah, no. Is that required?

tyleretters · 2020-09-11T11:58:04.591Z

yep! or a shield which are cheaper. sorry about that.
