Simple Wavetable Synthesis

[capogreco]

yup I do like the above method of building functions with functions to eventually slot into a synthdef.

but things like scheduling and calling other synths still can’t go into synthdef, which I think sort of acts as an obstruction to continuous, ongoing abstraction.

I created a topic for discussions regarding how to approach this problem:

Limitless Abstraction

the really cool thing about pure data is that you can just keep wrapping your patches into abstractions ad infinitum. I found this aspect made pure data really fun and powerful to work with. the process of continual folding into abstraction seems more difficult with SuperCollider. take for example the following code: ( ~minor_eleven = [ 0, 3, 7, 10, 14, 17 ]; ~major_thirteen = [ 0, 4, 7, 14, 18, 21 ]; ~chord_shapes = [ ~minor_eleven, ~major_thirteen ]; ~chords = Array.fill (4) {|i| 60 - i + …
