Auto Dubstep example in SonicPi

auto_dubstep.rb

# Welcome to Sonic Pi v2.0
# SonicPi ish interpretation of 
# Dan Stowells' Dubstep Synth:

# All the usual caveats apply - this is just a first attempt at getting it working
# Refinements to follow

@current_bpm = 120.0 # because current_bpm doesn't work for me
use_bpm @current_bpm

define :wob do
  use_synth :dsaw
  lowcut = note(:E1) # ~ 40Hz
  highcut = note(:G8) # ~ 3000Hz
  note = [40, 41, 28, 28, 28, 27, 25, 35, 78].choose
  duration = 2.0
  bpm_scale = (60 / @current_bpm).to_f
  
  # scale the note length based on current tempo
  slide_duration = duration * bpm_scale
  
  with_fx :lpf, cutoff: lowcut, cutoff_slide: slide_duration do |c|
    play note, attack: 0, sustain: duration, release: 0
    
    wobble_time = [1, 6, 6, 2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 3, 3].choose
    c.ctl cutoff_slide: ((duration / wobble_time.to_f) / 2.0)
    
    wobble_time.times do
      c.ctl cutoff: highcut
      sleep ((duration / wobble_time.to_f) / 2.0)
      c.ctl cutoff: lowcut 
      sleep ((duration / wobble_time.to_f) / 2.0)
    end
  end
end

in_thread do
  loop do
    with_fx :reverb do
      wob
    end
  end
end

in_thread do
  loop do
    [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0].each do |kick|
      sample :drum_heavy_kick if kick == 1
      sleep 0.5
    end
  end
end

in_thread do
  loop do
    sleep 2
    sample :drum_snare_hard
    sleep 2
  end
end

:-) Much fun! Thanks for this.
