Oops, I see that you did navigate to your downloads folder correctly. Just to be sure, you didn't type "%>chuck" did you? The "%>" is meant to represent the computer's line prompt. All YOU have to type is: chuck and hit enter. Now do you get the whole "no input files" thing?

Does the miniAudicle work for you? Because that's the most straightforward way to use ChucK. Certainly if you're mainly interested in programming for the Monome, the miniAudicle is the best environment. The installation of the command-line version is generally only necessary for special cases. If you're really intent on using the command line version, I suspect that it's navigating to the chuck folder in the terminal that's tripping you up. Where is your chuck-1.2.1.3-exe folder? If it's on your desktop, then you'll need to type: cd ~/Desktop/chuck-1.2.1.3-exe/bin (likewise, if it's in your Downloads folder, replace Desktop above with Downloads) then: sudo cp chuck /usr/local/bin (Just to echo Hans' comment, you don't need that line about 'sudo chmod 755...')

need help installing chuck
by SA NALEWALKE 01 Aug '11

01 Aug '11

ive been interested to try out chuck as a programming language for my monome, but i seem to be having some difficulties with the installation. im on a macbook pro 10.6.8 btw. i downloaded the chuck executable as well as miniaudical. i opened up the chuck executable which opened up a chuck folder with a bunch of things in it, and i stored them both in my applications folder. in the chuck manual, theres a section i included in an attachment that talks about replacing the x's with the actual "directory name". what is a "directory name" and how do i find out what my directory name is? id really like to get this going, thanks in advance for any help! hopefully i ll be chucking soon.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 right. while running through the directories in examples, what i would do is pull up the ck file on screen, try and figure out what it was trying to do and what it would sound like in my head, then i wouldn't change a thing, and execute the chuck command on that file, and see if i was right. an amusing way to learn chuck coding perhaps, though it seems to work for me. anyway, this deals with the file in the deep subdir called unclap.ck, that seems to give me a 'program has caused an error' dialog box, and options to submit the error or not. in other words, file not run. and the most amusing part is i can't even guess why this might be. i can say that i'm using the windows version of chuck.exe, 1.2.1.3 i think it is. and can't think of anything else to put in here. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJONPeuAAoJEIaKvi7tbzRH80gH/2kEF19jw7yqCq6SDefcS7Sa D/J3bwHi5fsMBJMI/k84ZWS7wmYy2STXLFXBomM0YHUbsQVlouzhS8ocV+Dul6u/ mkcYLqFlw0c6jTIRsr2S3HqLvdMtQQsvDEg5UjQ5PfpQulVh7BputHvDTAG7WkGq rREyCGdRsjmccmYwJyCJ1zxkgNyCT+8wYqJ2EH8uzBSBo6SaiTxgdKle3RM1Du/h 2ubzu/7yWdrzltpn0j084UX2DGra460Frcx90OcgvzB3n40VtcD5B1PahFW5stYD nCFL/Rsq3+G90C+EOTmJeSrOBVfsZS/CFLWljsIMp5BzeqTuJJ73OcWaPW6SUck= =/Skd -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

MIDI Forwarding?
by Johnathan Bell 26 Jul '11

26 Jul '11

All, I was looking at Ableton to do this, but I think I may be able to achieve a cheaper and better solution using ChucK ... I want to forward MIDI messages from a USB-MIDI keyboard, through a computer, to a hardware synth that has the standard MIDI in/out ports. My keyboard does MIDI over USB, but has no standard MIDI ports, so I can't plug it directly into a synth, but if I were to use a USB MIDI interface on my computer, could I interface the keyboard to the synth that way, using ChucK as a go-between? It'd be a simple matter of opening the MIDI in from the keyboard, and then just copying those messages to the MIDI out of the interface, I'm thinking... - Johnathan

chuck on os x 10.7 (lion)
by Jonas Zeleninsky 24 Jul '11

Hello, my first post here, so please excuse me if I'm doing something wrong. I installed the latest version of chuck on my 10.7 system, and I am facing this issue: go-vegan:basic Jonas$ chuck demo0.ck [chuck]: (via rtaudio): no devices found for given stream parameters: ... RtApiCore: No supported sample rates found for OS-X device (Apple Inc.: Built-in Output). ... RtApiCore: No supported sample rates found for OS-X device (Apple Inc.: Built-in Input). My sample rate is 44100, and I didn't change it since the Snow Leopard (where ChucK worked without any problem). Anyone else having this problem? Or can think of solution? Regards, Jonas
