#Supercollider gui how to#

I will be doing a post here describing how to install Quarks on windows. Please install these using the usual manner.

#Supercollider gui code#

This code relies on several Quarks: AllGui, cruciallib, crucialviews, ServerTools, TabbedView and wslib.

If you find any bugs, have any feature requests or find this to be useful to you, please contact me at.

#Supercollider gui windows 7#

I have only tested using SC3.5 on Windows 7 using the QT GUI. There may be bugs and the interfaces may change in the future. SW_Gui is a tabbed GUI interface that keeps the most useful tools at your fingertips in a single window and has a customizable launcher so you can access anything else you may need.ĭISCLAIMER: This has really been built for my own use so far. While I found these to be a useful start I was still juggling way too many windows. I have been searching for a better way to organize a GUI in Supercollider as you may know from my posts about Superscope and SlimLauncher. Plug your USB cable into the back of the Teensy and in to your computer.SW_Gui - A customizable GUI for Supercollider In the screen that says “MIDI Assign” at the top, change parameters to this: Screen: MIDI AssignĪnd on the setup page called “MIDI Channel”: Screen: MIDI Channel

#Supercollider gui mod#

The Hemisphere/Captain MIDI description in Modality assumes that you are using it with 4 Mod midi signals going in and out.

On the module, open up the app “Captain MIDI” and enter the setup screen. Setting up Captain MIDI on the Hemisphere

#Supercollider gui update#

To use it, install or update Modality in SuperCollider: Quarks.gui I added support for the Ornament & Crime module with the Hemisphere Suite installed. It comes with support for a bunch of controllers, and the list of supported ones is constantly growing. The Modality package is basically a large library and framework for doing amazing things with controllers by using them in a modal way making interface setup and reconfiguration fairly easy. I use The Modality Toolkit for all of my SuperCollider work involving controllers. Since the module is now recognized as a midi controller by the computer, we can address it as such in SuperCollider. Controlling the module with SuperCollider Note: Make sure you have at least v.1.8A installed - the previous versions of Captain MIDI had a nasty buffer overflow bug making the module crash at high load. This turns the module into a USB midi interface recognized on your computer as any kind of USB midi controller.

One of these is Captain MIDI which is what allows us to do midi-cv conversion between the module and our computer by plugging a USB cable into the Teensy itself on the back of the board. This firmware is an entirely different suite of applications. However, recently an alternative to the “stock” firmware for the OC has appeared: The Hemisphere Suite. Hemisphere Suite: Turning the module into a USB midi controller The firmware for the OC consists of a range of small applications serving purposes from signal quantization to low frequency oscillators, some of which are taken from the Mutable Instruments modules mentioned above. With this (which is basically a very nice sort of Arduino that works really well for audio tasks), anyone can plug a USB cable into the module and start hacking at the firmware as if it was any other Arduino. The reason for the OC’s popularity can probably be traced back to the core of the module: The Teensy. The hardware and firmware for it was largely inspired by the incredible work of Émilie Gillet at Mutable Instruments, a synthesizer company with a radical open source philosophy and very free licensing for both hardware and software. The module has become highly popular in the DIY world and has inspired a range of derivatives in hardware (which even includes versions for the Buchla synthesizer system). Ornament & Crime is an open source eurorack module that serves as a DAC and ADC for the Teensy microcontroller. The disadvantage of this approach is that communication between the computer and the modular happens over midi with a value range limited to 0-127, but this may be smoothed at both ends of the signal. It’s also fairly cheap to make yourself and the build process is - due to it’s popularity and the great community - very well documented. This also means when you are not using it as a midi-cv interface you can pull up any of the many different applications it comes with and use it for something else. This method has some advantages: The module and the firmware are both open source - this makes it a very sustainable choice because the community is constantly improving and expanding the possibilities with this module.
