howdy. glad that people are enjoying this! I havenāt spent much time at all playing music over the past year or so (and none with norns scripting) but am getting back into it now.
I made some updates prior to taking a break that I want to sit with and probably adjust before pushing. maybe the whole thing will change? dunno, but I love just playing over top of a constantly shifting bed of sine clusters.

Honestly this script isā¦ liberating. I canāt quite explain it, but itās pushing me to play my guitar in a sparse, more restrained manner that I suddenly feel really at home with. Actually, Iāve never played like this before - Iām more of a late 90s post-hardcore guitarist, so this is new, but exciting. And I have you to thank for this!

thank you @speakerdamage. Just came across this late last week and spent some time with it. The script is a joy and quite labyrinthine.
Is it common that at some point (maybe after 5 minutes or so) the sines ātake overā to the point where no changes seem to have an effect?(clearing and beginning to poll again, resetting softcut, changing sine mode, or adjusting sines volume). Is this perhaps an intention, related to the āthereā?
Would you care to share more on the k3: clearing/freezing sines? I feel that in the beginning this function operates as ānormalā, and then seems have more of an effect on clearing the glut buffer vs. the sines. Just me?

nope, this is not intentional. canāt say Iāve experienced this so I will have to check it out.
Iāll take a look at this too. pressing k3 should only be emptying the table of hz values for the sines (and then re-polling / re-filling table). if you hold k1 and press k3, that changes the glut params. is that maybe what you were doing?
@yobink these are awesome, thanks for sharing! Iāve wanted a daxophone for yearsā¦

Wow these are nice. I was just listening to the Ariel Kalma / Robert AA Lowe record, and your tracks are giving me the same vibes.

These are really beautiful. Also led me to check out the Venova. Had never heard of that. How do you like it? Understanding itās not fully a replacement for a saxophone, is it an interesting sound source? Is it hard to play?

Thanks! I love the Venova and if youāve played wind instruments itās very easy to play. Thereās some wonky fingering to play āall the notesā but I generally donāt care about such things. Mostly use it in a free jazz context. And the price is right! I reach for it a lot over traditional horns due to quick and easy and sounds good.
Edit: I did swap out the plastic reed for a bass clarinet reed which markedly improved playability and sound quality.
