Hello and welcome to this virtual Notam meetup.

This is a space for sharing ideas, inspiration, workflow, projects, tips and tricks and just hanging out with likeminded people. 

It's nice to get to know each other so when/if it's your turn to speak, please tell us your name and a bit about yourself. 

Feel free to post a link to your website/soundcloud/bandcamp/github or whichever page we could visit to learn a bit more about you and your work.

Thanks for joining!

For generating complexity, the #1 revelation for me: recursive phrasing - there's a good tutorial in the docs,

I love to wrap a Pbind in a Pdef.

Killer combo.

Pmono is useful if you're doing a lot of "setting" of arguments of existing synths instead of generating new ones. (if that makes sense)

thx very much again for your answers 😃 will be back after dinner if you're still there!

danielmkarlsson
// This seems to only let the first Pwhite thru
Pseg([Pseq([Pwhite(0.0,0.5),Pwhite(0.5,1.0)],inf),10,\lin,inf),
// What am I doing wrong?
Sorry, missing hard bracket:
Pseg([Pseq([Pwhite(0.0,0.5),Pwhite(0.5,1.0)],inf)],10,\lin,inf),
20:21
Anders Eskildsen
The first Pwhite will go on infinitely by default, I think?
20:22
daniel: Your Pwhites are infinite by default, so once it reaches a segment (the first pwhite) it doesn't move onto the next one because that Pwhite is infinitely generating values. Try adding a third value to each Pwhite which is the amount of values you want returned

I don't understand Pif.
Could you please talk about how you use it.

Also check out the Require quark (
https://github.com/scztt/require.quark
). which wraps up this kind of scd path loading with things like wildcards, relative paths, error handling, etc.

Question (unless it's too late for a new topic): What are your go-to sources of inspiration for live coding?
20:40
Will ask that questio nwhen possible ^

Thanks guys, sadly I have to go now, it was great, see you next time! ❤️

To whoever was asking about modulating Pseg values - I use something like this "Pseg factory" pattern for solving these kinds of problems. There are different ways to do this, but this one works for many kinds of "fixed duration"-ish classes - it feels quite readable and expressive, and <> composing with a Pbind means you can pass multiple "arguments" in to your Plazy factory to generate the next chunk of values:

this is a nice new YT channel that provides live coder sessions plus a walkthrough of their code:

another performance with livecoding, but with arduinos:

Also, of anyone wants to try a very beta (but working!) version of the pattern modulation class, i mentioned: 
https://gist.github.com/scztt/51e19767ae954adfa8a5783dce183209

It solves some of the very annoying bookkeeping and allows you to pass mini Ndef style synths as Pbind parameters.
