[microsound] supercollider question

Wed Sep 8 20:04:34 EDT 2010

you are probably going to hate this- but since i have been using
CCresponders AND freeing them everything i command., i have reset the pram
and even reinstalled SC, i just can't think of what the issue is - my only
thought is that it might be a node problem? please see below- and thanks in
advance for your help and patience! this is driving my nutty!! hi scott,

thanks so much for getting back to me...

it's quite a complicated (or rather lengthy) patch so i have been trying to
simplify it so i can get the whole issue across...
but briefly (or not so briefly) i am using messaging style (for pan as an
example) like this from my routines:

var pos1Spec, pos1=0;

~cc1 = CCResponder({|src, chan, num, val|
pos1 = pos1Spec.map(val/127.0);
}, nil, 0, 1);

~chord_rout1 = Routine({
var chordNotesArray = (#[ 34, 46, 53, 64]), nv2;nv2 = [~adsr,~adsr];

inf.do({|i|
var index;
index = 2.rand;
s.sendBundle(0.02,
["/s_new", "OneDeepOnce", chordNode1ID=s.nextNodeID, 0, tone_grpID, \outDry,
0, \outWet,44, \i_freq, (4 + (chordNotesArray @@ i)).midicps, \pos, pos1]
,[\n_setn,  chordNode1ID, \env, nv2[index].size]++nv2[index]
).yield; }); });

as well as a direct MIDIControl from inside my synth for other parameters:

(
SynthDef("OneDeepOnce", { arg outDry=0, outWet=42, i_freq=500, pos=0,
chord_allBuf=40000;
var klank, harm, amp, ring, env2, env2_cntrl, wetMix, dryMix, offSet, noise,
output, gate, tone, winde;

harm = Control.names([\harm]).ir([2, 6, 8]);
amp = Control.names([\amp]).ir([0.7, 0.6, 0.5]);
ring = Control.names([\ring]).ir(Array.fill(3,6));
env2 = Env.newClear(10);
env2_cntrl = Control.names([\env]).kr(env2.asArray);

offSet = MIDIControl.kr(0, 1, \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:7,
id:~port);
output = MIDIControl.kr(0.1, 1,  \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:8,
id:~port);
gate = MIDIControl.kr(0, 1,  \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:9,
id:~port);

noise = {GrayNoise.ar(Crackle.ar(1.5, 0.01))};

klank = DynKlank.ar(`[harm,amp,ring], Decay.ar(noise, 1, 0.001).dup, i_freq,
offSet, output);

klank = Pan2.ar(klank,pos) * EnvGen.kr(env2_cntrl, gate, doneAction:2);

Out.ar(outWet, klank*output);

}).load(s);
)

Now, this:
gate = MIDIControl.kr(0, 1,  \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:9,
id:~port);

is controlling ALL my synths (even one which doesn't have an env) !

this:
output = MIDIControl.kr(0.1, 1,  \lin, lag: 0.02, channel:0, control:8,
id:~port);

is controlling a couple of synths (it's not mapped to), but not all- ON
CHANNEL 1 AND 8

I have been using cc.remove in this patch since i wrote it, but it isn't
working!

i just reset the pram... that hasn't helped either- i have even reinstalled
SC...

Do you think it might be my Node allocations?

The synth that cuts off from the gate which doesn't have an env is in the
first group and the two which are both responding to the the output change
on CC1 are in the second and third respectively...

tone_grp = s.sendMsg("/g_new", tone_grpID=s.nextNodeID, 0, 0); //head of
node 0

popp_grp = s.sendMsg("/g_new", popp_grpID=s.nextNodeID, 3, tone_grpID);
//after pieces_grpI

drone_grp = s.sendMsg("/g_new", drone_grpID=s.nextNodeID, 3, popp_grpID);
//afterpopp_grppieces_grpID

the other thing is that i am triggering my routines with a CCresponder so i
the synthdef with all the triggers assigned as so:

s.sendMsg("/s_new", "trig2", trig2_ID=s.nextNodeID, 0, 0, \id, 100);

s.sendMsg("/s_new", "trigger", trigger_ID=s.nextNodeID, 3, trig2_ID, \id,
120);

here is the CCresponder:

OSCresponder(s.addr, '/tr', {|time, responder, msg|

switch(msg[2]

, 120, {space_rout.next}

, 4, {chord_rout1.next}

, 5, {drone_rout.next}

and the trigger sythdef:

(

SynthDef("trigger", {|id=120|

var midi, midi1, midi4, midi5;

midi1 = MIDIControl.kr(0, 127, \lin, channel:0, control:1, id:~port);

midi4 = MIDIControl.kr(0, 127, \lin, channel:0, control:4, id:~port);

midi5 = MIDIControl.kr(0, 100, \lin, channel:0, control:5, id:~port);

SendTrig.kr(HPZ1.kr(midi1), id); //space

SendTrig.kr((midi4>50), 4);//drone

SendTrig.kr((midi5>50), 5);//chord

}).load(s);

)

So there it is- if there is a culprit, it's gotta be here somewhere!!!
