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.

Hi Michael, Considering the nature of the thread, would you like to expand a bit on "The original intent was that it be a place for lots of people to dump their stuff, but that hasn't really happened"? I mean that seems exactly what I was looking for :) How do you see that happen, if it's still something you'd like to see happening?

Hello, I'd like to create some files with simple functions and call them in a Main.ck file. I try with Machine.add or spork, but these properties are a different way. There is any function as in C (#include ) or python (import file)? Thanks Again, -- Claudio Rogerio

Re: [chuck-users] trackpad problem
by David Loberg Code 21 Aug '19

I have not updated all 20 yet. But I just tried another one with Sierra OSX and got the same behavior. If it is not OSX dependent, seems that it must be something particular to that specific hardware model: MacBook Pro (13 inch, Mid 2012). The trackpad or an external mouse works fine in every other program. Within miniAud, they are recognized as HID devices. It will connect to them and print the hid.name But it won't read any HidMsg data. It won't even trigger hidEvent => now; davd -------------------------------------------------------------- Spencer Salazar writes: Just confirmed that thinks are working as expected on my MacBook Pro 15in mid-2015 with mac OS 10.14.5.

Re: [chuck-users] Trackpad issue
by Perry Cook 21 Aug '19

Some time ago I noted that I needed to use a different device number for the built-in track pad. Mouse 1 vs mouse 0. I suspected that Apple might be getting ready to introduce a touch-screen Laptop, which would of course be device 0. That never happened yet tho. Did you try a different device #??

Embedded ChucK
by Mario Buoninfante 16 Aug '19

Hi, Do we have anything like ctcsound ( https://csound.com/docs/ctcsound/ctcsound-API.html) or libpd ( http://libpd.cc/) for ChucK. I know changes have been made in the latest release, I was just wondering if there's anything to look at out there. Cheers, Mario

HPF | having issues with 'set' method
by mario buoninfante 28 Jul '19

28 Jul '19

Hi, I just noticed that the 'set' method doesn't seem to work properly with HPF. the following code shows the difference between using 'set' and 'freq' Noise noise => HPF filter => dac; 100 => float f; filter.Q(1); while( true ) { f + 100 => f; if( f > 5000 ) { 100 => f; } // swap between filter.freq and filter.set to check the difference filter.freq(f); //filter.set( f, 1 ); 0.1::second => now; } I'll report this on github as well.

ChucK + Launchpad
by Mario Buoninfante 27 Jul '19

27 Jul '19

Hi Raul, At the moment only LP Pro is supported, but the plan is to support all of them. I've already received several responses form others who own the standard launchpad, so probably I'll re-prioritize the thing and work on supporting them first. Which LP have you got exactly? Cheers, Mario

chuck versions and release schedule
by Forrest Cahoon 26 Jul '19

26 Jul '19

I'm putting the finishing touches on my chuck vscode extension, to which I've added syntax checking and a vscode command to have chuck play the currently open file. Since the --syntax switch the checker relies on is currently only in the git master branch, and not currently available in any prepackaged release, I'm using a boolean config param and have this feature turned off by default. I'm struggling with how I should explain this in the README. I guess it's reasonable that _most_ vscode users are programmer types who would not have a problem building chuck from github sources, but I think I have a nice environment with this extension for people who are not that sort of geek. I'd like to say, build from source or wait for version _x_, where _x_ is what I'm trying to figure out. I see that there was a simultaneous release of 1.3.6 and 1.4.0, (but no git tags for either of those?) Would I be correct to guess that the next release will be 1.4.1? Are there any plans to make another release soon? It looks like it's been a year and a half ... might it be time? The --syntax switch surely can't be the only thing that people who aren't building from source are missing. Forrest
