[chuck-users] Using FFT 'manually'

[Kassen]

Siebe;

Thanks for your reply, Kas. I hope I can help making ChucK a bit more

That would be interesting.  Might be hard as I understand HKU students are
already learning about MAX and SC as well. I think it's clear that there is
a space for all three but of course everyone's time is limited.

Well, yes, I miss-read the examples and didn't read carefully enough. For
some reason I also kept copying the line numbers on those pages along with
the code, even when they weren't highlighted. I'll try again. Could be just
me making mistakes again.

Quite so, yes.

Right, I'll have a close look at it right now.
Sorry about not reading your examples with enough care


Yours,
