Pleased that's useful. It may also be worth checking out the busses example here: https://github.com/overtone/overtone/blob/master/src/overtone/examples/buses/getonthebus.clj
There's more than a few ways to skin that cat
@triss you can also check out this example https://github.com/overtone/overtone/blob/8bb81f9cbb8c99aacea3640a80a827a50ac7bf66/src/overtone/examples/instruments/dubstep.clj#L8
you can use any ugen as a freq parameter to other, like lfo
so with @akuz suggestion you can pass a
lag to a saw or sin-osc
e.g. ((freesound 13254)) cymbal – sounds nice until the very end then there's a weird clicky/cymbaly repeat noise
Happy holidays <3
I'm having a simple problem in overtone which i cant yet explain... trying to connect to midi devices yet overtone.core/midi-connected-devices always returns an empty list.
im on 32-bit linux, which it says theres no build for (which confuses me, i'm running scsynth via SC_IDE and connecting to it from lein repl no problem)
sclang has no problem listing all my connected midi devices and with tx/rx
i'll see if i can find the answer and post it before anyone notices the question here, lol :P
[overtone.nativescsynth.availability :only [native-scsynth-lib-availability]]
damn emojis! haha
i cannot find this corner of the library.... overtone.nativescsynth.availability
very confused.

How do I use normal, Integer arguments in my Synths?
(defsynth voices [n 8]
(let [src (* 8 (dust (repeat n 2)))
del (comb-l src 0.1 (repeatedly n #(+ (rand 0.004) 0.003)) 4)]
(out 0 (splay del :spread 0.8))))
I don't have a working overtone installation right now. (New installation and haven't touched this in a bit.) The error message looks to me like your definition requires a Number (and I believe an Integer will do the trick), but you're providing a UGen. I sometimes find that control-rate (kr) UGens can be used where otherwise a Number is required, but that's inconsistent for me. I'd recommend trying to replace something (maybe
(repeat)?) with an Integer to troubleshoot
And I'm reminded that I need to get Clojure and Overtone working again. Otherwise, I don't think I'm speaking out of turn to say that most Overtone energy is now being spent on Sonic Pi - if you're just getting into things, maybe look there. One really isn't sacrificing anything to switch once one gets under the hood.
mmmmaybe
(demo (* 8 (dust (repeat 8 2)))) does work, so I'm mistaken.
(demo (let [src (* 8 (dust (repeat 8 2)))] (comb-l src 0.1 (repeatedly 8 #(+ (rand 0.004) 0.003)) 4))) also works (and sounds cool)
I think this accomplishes what your goal was:
(defsynth myv2 [] (let [src (* 8 (dust (repeat 8 2))) del (comb-l src 0.1 (repeatedly 8 #(+ (rand 0.004) 0.003)) 4)] (splay (out 0 del) :spread 0.8)))
The real difference being
(splay (out 0 del)) instead of (splay del)
And I need to head to work and can't continue exploring this. If no one else finds a solution later on, I'll keep looking
Oops haha. Basically it's that Overtone is an alternative for sclang.overtone communicates with scsynth server directly.
