MIDI-synchronization and metric timing (?)
Hi, ChucK-Community! My name is Steve. So far I have been using Max 6 for MIDI-programming. My primary workflow is that I generate MIDI-data in Max and send them to my DAW where it's used to trigger several SoftSynths. I am the point now, however, where Max doesn't offer me enough flexibility to realize what I want to do. I am considering switching to ChucK. There is one thing, however, I need to know about ChucK: In Max I am able to synchronize it's timing mechanism to my DAW and define any kind of timing data (e.g.: frequency of an LFOsc) in metric timing (1/16-notes, 1/8-notes, etc.). Is this also possible in ChucK? If no, then ChucK unfortunately is no option for me, at least at the moment. Thanks! best regards, steve -- Diese E-Mail wurde aus dem Sicherheitsverbund E-Mail made in Germany versendet: http://www.gmx.net/e-mail-made-in-germany
Hi, Steve: Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for you, but I'm hoping someone does. Did you figure this out? I would love to find a way to drive FL studio from a MIDI source, and ChucK would be a great option for that -- I think. I always seem to hit roadblocks when trying to drive FLS via midi. What DAW are you using?

An easy solution is to just define what a bar is, and then go from there: 1::minute / bars_per_minute => bar; // set bars_per_minute accordingly bar / 8 => quaver; SinOsc s => dac; 440 => s.freq; while (true) { quaver => now; 0 => s.gain; quaver => now; 1 => s.gain; } It would help if we knew more about the format that you have the timing in.

Hello Greg, Steve
Great questions. I think the right answer is to implement MIDI beat
clock to sync external apps to ChucK
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI_beat_clock
Going the other way (adjusting ChucK's timing to incoming MIDI clock)
is way beyond me.
To follow on Manuel's suggestion, here is a time signature class
implemented in that fashion and an example
