Greetings ChucKsters, I am pleased to share the first public beta release of my hobby project, Fiddle: A Programmable Sound System. It is a Graphical User Interface and IDE for ChucK. It is free, open, and completely extensible. Hopefully it will be of interest to some of you. I have been working on Fiddle for over a year and so the term "hobby-project" may be a bit of an undersell. But it's always better to under-promise, no? Fiddle *is* a hobby project in the sense that it is designed to help *me* dabble in electronic music-making. It's probably missing many features that I've yet to appreciate, but "the day is still young". On the cannerycoders website you'll find online documentation and a download page. You'll also find Windows 10+, Mac-Intel, Mac-M1 and Linux-Debian-x64 builds available. No guarantees are made with respect to older OS versions, your mileage may vary, caveat emptor, etc. I'm uncertain how much interest in Fiddle to expect. It's possible that my non-industrial-strength download site won't be up to the task. Patience is a virtue. Cheers, Dana Batali ps: Today I learned that this listserve doesn't appear to allow URLs probably for good reasons. This is why I can't provide links in a useful form.
