Re: [chuck-users] ChucK | Users Chugins/Chubgraphs/Chugens

Sounds great, Mario! The way I use ChucK & LiCK, which may or may not be properly documented, is to run $ chuck --loop in one terminal, setting --adc and --dac if necessary, and then from the lick directory in a second terminal $ chuck + import.ck $ chuck + examples/… Then I often use a MIDI device and/or a guitar pedal board that appears as a keyboard so I don't have to touch the computer any more. I have wanted to bundle all this up to deploy to a Raspberry Pi in a guitar pedal enclosure and/or eurorack synth module for some time, but I get distracted by other things. :) michael

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

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 volunteered to start such a library and LiCK was born.

For one reason or another, LiCK didn't really take off as a community library. I would guess the primary reason is that LiCK comes off as more of a programmer library rather than a musician library. There is a lot of good stuff for musicians in there, I am just not so good at documentation! :)

Going forward, I'm more than welcome to contributions via Github pull request or to the docs via FLOSS manuals. Or if a new shared library should be created from scratch, for another try at broader community involvement, I'm all for that as well.

Cheers,

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?

Cheers, Mario

Thank you for the reminder about the FLOSS manuals documentation — that is quite a bit out of date, and doesn't really mention much about making music. :)

Very generally, LiCK is where I dump all the stuff I write in ChucK. The original intent was that it be a place for lots of people to dump their stuff, but that hasn't really happened.

Nearly every class/effect/instrument has an example in the examples directory

https://github.com/heuermh/lick/tree/master/examples https://github.com/heuermh/lick/tree/master/examples

The examples named *Pedal.ck http://pedal.ck/ work similar to a guitar pedal, I typically use them with an Apogee Jam interface, or my real multichannel interface, and this stomp board which acts as a keyboard (though it can also do MIDI over USB)

How is it implemented LiCK in Chuck? LiCK is a little confuse for me because i didn’t know it.
