Dear all, chuck-1.3.0.0 (chimera) is available: http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/ http://chuck.stanford.edu/ This release incorporates ChuGins, a new way to extend ChucK. ChuGins are a continual work in progress, and we encourage feedback in anticipation of rapid updates, tweaks, and fixes. Chugens and Chubgraphs provide additional mechanisms for extending ChucK's built-in audio capabilities. Furthermore, this release variety of smaller fixes and additions. To start developing ChuGins, please see several examples here, in addition to the chuginate utility, which generates the skeleton framework for a new ChuGin. https://github.com/spencersalazar/chugins and: https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~spencer/publications/CCC2012.pdf (Please see the release notes at the end of this email.) Many many thanks once again to Kassen, Casper Schipper, Jorge Herrera, Hongchan Choi, and everyone on chuck-users, as well as PLOrk, SLOrk, the Food Services Division at Smule, Fernando Lopez-Lezcano, Carr Wilkerson, Chris Chafe, and the rest of the chuck community for making this release happen!
