thanks everyone who tuned in!

just put the example file on github, along with the WIP of the startup music.

will upload the video soon

as of now, yes.

we could easily add a command to request an immediate update of the phase poll for a voice. (though would add potentially non-trivial jitter.)

in the meantime, maybe you could make one of these options work for what you’re after:

  • use softcut.phase_quant(q) to adjust the quantum of phase polling to something musically useful (maybe dynamically)
  • use get_time() for a high res UI timer on the scripting side

This project and the @galapagoose ASL streams have motivated me to write my first scrips. Feeling challenged and a lot of joy about this. Thanks for all you do. Can’t wait for the upload.

if you’d like to learn clocks and softcut (and even some super super intro stuff at the beginning)

thank you for uploading! I had to run mid way through :sweat_smile:

Thanks! This system makes sense to me, and I can’t think of a really immediate reason why I’d need to query an approximate time from the phasor, considering that it would never be “accurate” without also causing some side effects. Using polling times based on some musical context actually sounds interesting, gonna try that out.

I didn’t get to watch the stream when it was broadcast, but sat down to watch it today. That was really inspirational, and might well be worth linking from both the softcut and clock studies pages. Thanks :pray:

great idea! and done!

Is it possible/encouraged to run a clock per softcut playhead?

i was suggesting perhaps three clocks per voice, each modulating something… but that’s just a suggestion. you can also of course have one clock changing several voices… cross-modulating somehow. for me the interesting part includes odd overlapping time intervals for maximum variations between the parameters.

tons of territory to explore!!

final week! how is everyone doing? i figure this coming weekend we’ll all be doing last-minute script sessions? anyone have any sneak peeks?

ahhh between deadlines for other code and birthdays I could only be able to put aside the 31st for this … we’ll see !

This is my first script experience.
Lots of false starts with lots of different methods/modulation strategies. Not struggling so much with the coding. Its making music I like that’s holding me up. I may be overreaching the prompt and trying to make it do too much. But, I’m learning a ton, enjoying the process and will accept however it sounds in the end.

i’ve improved the voices setup a bit, also getting along with softcut much better now.

still looking for the ideas for simple/complex rhythm control though.

i really need to start this! :sweat_smile:

@tehn thanks for the stream lesson from a few fridays ago

watched the 1st half today and i’m about to start making something of my own based on that

will watch the 2nd half and make note of specific questions

psyched you’re digging in!

Having some fun with probabilistic sequencing here. A lot of this code will change (especially since there’s no user control at all right now), but this is what I’ve got so far.

hey tried this but i think it needs the .pmap looks great though!

It shouldn’t need a pmap file, but enc() did reference a parameter that I had removed, so maybe that was your problem? I just pushed some updates this morning.

edit: more fun:
