:wave: hey folks, joining from Lines. Definitely happy to tackle some engine development as well; maybe a little more excited about this than the lua-side scripting personally. That said, I think we can probably accommodate lua-only folks too, so long as the foundational script had a remotely functioning engine.
As a tip for writing an additive engine, I recommend the Iteration video by Eli Fieldsteel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMGXYEg1gJo&index=7&list=PLPYzvS8A_rTaNDweXe6PX4CXSGq4iEWYC
Additionally, the Patterns video has a great example that shows shortcuts for things like harmonics when stacking sines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nB_bVJ1c1Rg&list=PLPYzvS8A_rTaNDweXe6PX4CXSGq4iEWYC&index=11
Here are a couple short examples from the SC book as well:
(
{Mix.ar(
Array.fill(12,
{arg count;
var harm;
harm = count + 1*110;
SinOsc.ar(harm,
mul: max([0,0], SinOsc.kr(count+1/4))
)*1/(count+1)
})
)*0.7}.play.plot;
)(
{
var fund = 220;
Mix.ar(
[
SinOsc.ar(220, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12))),
SinOsc.ar(440, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12)))*1/2,
SinOsc.ar(660, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12)))*1/3,
SinOsc.ar(880, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12)))*1/4,
SinOsc.ar(1110, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12)))*1/5,
SinOsc.ar(1320, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12)))*1/6,
SinOsc.ar(1530, mul: max(0, LFNoise1.kr(12)))*1/7,
]
)*0.3
}.play
)Though, I think something more static would be suited to our goals.
This looks like it could be a decent tool for brainstorming together, no signup needed:
@mhetrick and @realTylerLubke_twitter thanks for the suggestions. Here's the code from Eli's Tutorial #6: https://gist.github.com/jasonw22/769882220ff64282f380e21199e77258
