Started to sketch more into my notebook:
|
|
|
|
MATERIALS:
|
|
- samples
|
|
- granular syn.
|
|
- glitches, basskicks, highhats
|
|
- leads, pads, basses
|
|
- SynthDefs, Buffers (loading)
|
|
|
|
TRYING THINGS OUT ub a different workflow with Ndef and Proxies?
|
|
|
|
ARCHITECTURE
|
|
- master bus
|
|
- sends?
|
|
- control busses
|
|
|
|
PATTERNS
|
|
- nested
|
|
- Ppar, conductor?
|

Ended up with two kinda finished SynthDefs - a granulator (I wonder how could it be made more reusable, there's space for improvement), and a supersaw, that is still quite soft - I think quite useful for some deep ground here and there. I have managed to make it quite clean, and learned a lot in the process, especially regarding the Splay and panning and stereo balancing. Basic loading of whatever is in lib/ and smp/ folders now works. Will need to be improved on the way.

I'm kinda moving towards a self-baked framework for composing *dance* tracks, or at least beat-based stuff. It's probably the only way - to build everything by yourself (of course so much has been built within SuperCollider too on top of which I'm building now. There's now also just a basic Buffer player. I was thinking to just create number of different SynthDefs, all some kind of specific synth sounds - pads, leads, basses, etc. I'm also thinking to get onto the single-cycle waveforms collection and use that for table oscilators: Osc, COsc, VOsc, VOsc3...

I also init remote git repo on git.tmp.si/luka/ark_d.amorphic and pushed current work there (here?).

Three hours of play and learning in the morning. Learned how to use ```Ndef``` and then experimented with first building a synth (using Ndef) with sine and pulse oscilators, adding detuning and filter, converting to a ```SynthDef``` and using ```Ndef``` to play with a ```Pbind```:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(
|
|
SynthDef(\sinPulz, {
|
|
arg gate = 1, freq, out=0, amp = 1, attackTime=0.01, releaseTime=1, oscDetune=0.05, cutoff=1;
|
|
var snd, env;
|
|
|
|
oscDetune = oscDetune * 0.1;
|
|
oscDetune = oscDetune+1;
|
|
|
|
|
|
env = Linen.kr(gate, attackTime:attackTime, releaseTime:releaseTime, doneAction:2);
|
|
|
|
snd = SinOsc.ar([freq, freq*oscDetune]) ;
|
|
snd = snd + SinOsc.ar([freq*2, freq*oscDetune*2]) ;
|
|
snd = snd + Pulse.ar([freq/2,(freq/2)*oscDetune]) * LFNoise1.kr(0.5).exprange(2,40);
|
|
|
|
snd = snd.softclip;
|
|
snd = RLPF.ar(snd, freq:
|
|
//LFNoise1.kr(0.01).exprange(4000,300),
|
|
freq * cutoff,
|
|
rq:0.4);
|
|
|
|
snd = snd * env * amp * 0.4;
|
|
|
|
Out.ar(out, snd);
|
|
}).add;
|
|
)
|
|

// add a delay/reverb bus here?
|

|
// first press play :)
