Tutorial on Python and SuperCollider

Hi all —

I’m the creator of SCAMP (Suite for Computer-Assisted Music in Python), and just wanted to share with you all a video tutorial I made on connecting SCAMP with SuperCollider! Using the ScampUtils quark, it’s super simple to turn a SynthDef into an instrument playable from Python:

You can read more about SCAMP at http://scamp.marcevanstein.com. Also, if this is of interest to you, I’m teaching an online workshop on composing music in Python starting in a few weeks and also have a course on Kadenze.com that introduces you to music making in Python in a really beginner-friendly way.

Anyway, hope you all are well, and feel free to reach out of you have any questions!

isn’t SCAMP also a matrix library in Python? This seems like a problematic name collision

Not overly problematic since python has namespaces?

Seems like the other library is called pyscamp anyway? Unless you’re talking about something I’m unaware of.

I think the situation here is that we have two libraries trying to use the same namespace
