Linux Mint JACK?? ChucK.
by maria p cruz 30 Oct '19

30 Oct '19

Hi dear Ge Wang. I am using Linux Mint, but now I doesnt know how to configure JACK for ChucK; I have the same problem in Linux SuperCollider. I know the Bash intermediate codes, but I have some problems with the configuration of JACK, I know there is a tutorial from Fernando Lopez-Lezcano but I dont follow this for some ignorance in Bash, can You provide a tutorial to follow? Thanks in advance. Maria.

midi SUCCESS... the JACK server is shutting down this client
by Forrest Curo 22 Oct '19

22 Oct '19

Recently I downloaded (Ubuntu 19.04) Chuck 1.4.0.0 and had to do Awful Things to my Jack packages in order to provide libjack.h so it would compile. So now chucK is running fine, except that it can't give me a midi port (either alsa or jack) for my keyboards to connect to. running the gomidi.ck examples I get (after one to several 'SUCCESS' messages): "(JACK) the JACK server is shutting down this client." At that point chucK has not quit, but its audio is stifled until I start it again. Aconnectgui can't find a chucK port to connect anything else to until I open a 'MidiIn', which is exactly what upsets JACK. Help?! Forrest Curo San Diego

Best way to throw an error in ChucK?
by Forrest Cahoon 05 Oct '19

05 Oct '19

I'm writing some code something like this: class MyMidiThing { // static int stores midi channels to use 0 => static int nextChannel; // instance variable stores midi channel for object int channel; fun init() { if (nextChannel > 15) { // NO MORE MIDI CHANNELS! // PANIC! EXPLODE! ... how? } nextChannel => channel; nextChannel++; // ... go on to do stuff ... } // ... } Clearly I want to do something when there are no more MIDI channels available that stops the program and prints error info, like a stack trace. In general programming terminology, to throw an exception. I've been scanning the documentation, and maybe I'm dense, but I can't find out how to do what I want here. Suggestions? Forrest

ChucK | Users Chugins/Chubgraphs/Chugens
by mario buoninfante 01 Oct '19

Hi, I've been looking at CSound recently and I was impressed by the quantity of Opcodes (Ugens) it has. I know we have official Chugins, but still it's a small collection and I'm pretty sure there are plenty of interesting ones flying around that we all use every day (even if Chubgraphs), just they've never been 'captured'. Thus, I was thinking why don't we 'capture' them somewhere :) I also know that having an official repo means maintaining everything is on there, and that requires work as well. What do you guys think about having an unofficial repo/'place on the internet' where to put some others, chubgraphs and libraries included? I think the community would benefit from this. Looking forward to hear your thoughts Cheers, Mario -- Electronic Musician, Creative Coder, QA Engineer https://vimeo.com/creativecodingsalerno http://mbuoninfante.tumblr.com/ https://github.com/mariobuoninfante https://bitbucket.org/mariobuoninfante/

Hey all! I just published version 0.2.0 of my vscode-chuck extension. This version has the syntax checking feature using the recently added `--syntax` chuck command-line switch. You will need to build chuck from sources for this to be available; therefore this capability is disabled by default. One thing that is enabled by default is the ability to play the code in the current editor window; hopefully everyone will enjoy that. Please check it out and let me know if you have any issues. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=forrcaho.chuck https://github.com/forrcaho/vscode-chuck Forrest

Hi Michael, Thanks for giving me a bit context here. I think before I can say anything about it, I should have a proper look at LiCK. Something more than just poking around and get inspired by it, but instead I should spend some time actually using it. Thus, I'll take some time in the next weeks and then I should be able to provide my view about it. At the first sight I can only say that absolutely LiCK is quite powerful, from what I've seen in the code. And if the documentation is the only issue, well we're in a good place though :) Cheers, Mario -- Electronic Musician, Creative Coder, QA Engineer https://vimeo.com/creativecodingsalerno http://mbuoninfante.tumblr.com https://github.com/mariobuoninfante https://bitbucket.org/mariobuoninfante On 1 Sep 2019 02:58, Michael Heuer <heuermh(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello Mario, > > A long time ago, on this very list, some folks thought it would be a good idea to create a place to collect their ChucK code into a shared library.

I would guess the primary reason is that LiCK comes off as more of a programmer library rather than a musician library.
