  1. Yeah this dude is fucking dope. Real ace at the OG Elektrons.
  2. I wanna requote this too, for emphasis. This is very significant in these kinds of tools. Arrays are so incredibly useful for all sorts of audio applications: sample frames, sample banks, wavetables, delay buffers, sequencer steps, sequencer patterns, chords, scales, tuning, harmonics, polyphony, unison oscs, allpass/comb networks for reverbs, and FFT tables just to name some obvious ones. If you feel like you're working against the grain there, you are in for a bad time.
  3. That's quite awkward too. You're then using 2 additional languages without much in the way of libraries or modules or useful abstractions for either, so you have to do much of it from scratch. And then sharing or encapsulating the code is still done with the patcher, as is wiring them up. So you don't get the reusability advantages of code, it's more like making custom Max objects.
  4. No need for Wine - reaper.fm provides "experimental builds" but they work just as well as the Windows ones. Renoise will probably also work well on an older machine, although I'd probably advise using an older version for that, which your license may or may not permit. Haven't used Buzz for years, but it was the shit back in the day.
  5. And yet it only sounds like 1% better than software...
  6. I think @ambermonke knows a little Russian
  7. Thank you, this is so validating.
  8. CDM got it right - the plugins are the interesting part. Give it another 5-10 years and people are going to be bored to tears with step sequencers too.
  9. Anticipate needing a new thread for far-right shenanigans shortly, though...
  10. Once I got TC going I enjoyed it, but yeah - it's a bit of a hassle to get it there.
  11. Agree with your suggestions but not with this statement. The current GOP is far-right and even the 1980 GOP looks far-left in comparison - thanks in part to e.g. Clinton-era policies, to be fair. Wholeheartedly agree that healthier 3rd parties could only improve the political dialog. Super tired of the SportsBall paradigm.
  12. Actually, yeah, I still read those Charlie Clouser and Steve Albini threads from time to time. Good shit.
  13. Side note - the classes are worth introspecting for their properties (e.g. Scale.harmonicMinor) and also reading up on the docs in the SC IDE (by pressing Ctrl/Command+D on top of a class/property/method). It's easy to get started and there is also a lot to explore.
  14. Nope, that's part of why I love SC - I'm lazy :) The only "scaffolding" you should need to do (as long as your sound is properly configured) is booting the server.
  15. For sure! That snippet right there should be runnable although I don't think it sounds great or anything, plus it will use the (super bland) default piano instrument. I'll see if I can find some other cool sequences, but it might be faster for me to whip something up if you have some suggestions/prompts?
  16. Yeah you can really tell the difference between those who hang out on FB/IG or whatever mind poison and those who don't.
  17. I've heard (and uttered) this exact phrase more in the last 2-3 months than the rest of my existence combined. I don't envy Biden.
  18. I know I'm kind of a broken record about this lately but this yet another thing I'd definitely use SuperCollider for. If only because I'm lazy and it's easy. (Pbind( \scale, Scale.harmonicMinor, \degree, Pbrown(0, Scale.harmonicMinor.size, 3), \octave, Pbrown(3, 6, 2, inf), \dur, Pwrand( (1..4) / 8, [3, 5, 2, 1].normalizeSum, inf ), ).play)
