For quite a while now I have been trying to get Supercollider working on my Windows 10 system to no avail. I believe the problem started after installing JACK for windows. After uninstalling and trying a number of things I am still no closer to solving the issue. Despite seeming to boot fine SCIDE will not execute any code that […]
I have not posted much about Supercollider latley so I decided to take a couple minutes to break drown a recent tweet I posted. The first thing to do is to add some white space for readability. I also wrap the whole thing in parenthesis so it can still be executed as a single statement. In order to save space […]
Last Friday I tweeted out the following bit of Supercollider code. Fitting Supercollider code in a tweet has always been an interesting challenge. I thought I might take a few minutes to deconstruct what I am doing with this tweet. Even if you are new to Supercollider I encourage you to follow along step by step and try to understand […]
Anyone who has read my blog knows how much I love both Supercollider and Renoise but the two have always occupied two different areas of my workflow. I have decided it was finally time to start combining the strengths of the two. Supercollider is amazing for sound design and renoise is a very good sequencer. NOTE: Despite the Renoise focus […]
Background: While looking for Arduino projects to build I found the Algorithmic Noise Machine. I was instantly intrigued by the noises it generated using bitwise operations. Looking further I realized that Supercollider added support for bitwise operators in v3.5. Unfortunately the only documentation was a single example (quoted below). I decided to explore the concept a to understand how bitwise […]
Due to the demands of everyday life and a studio that suffered from periodic flooding, I have been an audio nomad for several years. My work has been created on a variety of different machine and synced by Dropbox, Google Drive and SkyDrive. My material had to be portable between machines as I never knew where I would be working […]
I am proud to announce my newest release as part of Subterranean Tide’s Haiku Project. “Each artist has contributed a three track release in increments of five minutes, seven minutes, and five minutes accompanied by a Haiku poem. Each song represents the line of the poem including title and reflection.” For my release I chose the following Haiku: Autumn moonlight-a […]
I was asked on Soundcloud to explain the following tweet: First step is to start unpacking the tweet to make it more readable: h and l were used as generic variables functions to cut down on the amount of repeated code. If we remove them we end up with: In order to make things a little more readable I pull […]
In learning Supercollider, PureData, ChucK and Csound I found that there was one lesson missing from all the tutorials I read. That was a lesson on of how simple math operations worked to produce effects on various signals. This is basic information that is needed to be successful in any of these languages. My code samples will be in Supercollider as […]
Today I released my first 2 Quarks for Supercollider: I have released my first two Supercollider Quarks today: QuickLauncher: A customizable GUI for toggling commonly used Supercollider windows. MiniIDE: A customizable tabbed GUI containing many commonly needed views. Both are available in the Quarks repository. MiniIDE has QuickLauncher as a dependency. Use MiniIDE().front to get started. Comments and feedback are […]
They Want To Make Your Body Move. I Want To Hold You Perfectly Still. by Schemawound I have blogged one time previously about the track “Please Hold”. The track was first written as a 7 second track for the Waxen Wings compilation “Se7en Seconds In Hea7en”. 7 second version is below: Se7en Seconds in Hea7en by Schemawound At the […]
They Want To Make Your Body Move. I Want To Hold You Perfectly Still. by Schemawound In this post I break down the creation of my track “Hello World, I Am Lonely Too” from my album “They Want To Make Your Body Move. I Want To Hold You Perfectly Still.”. The track was made entirely in Supercollider, although the final […]
This is a track I made for the Se7en Seconds In Hea7en compilation presented by Waxen Wings: A Collection of 75 works all 7 seconds in length. This compilation is meant to be downloaded in full and played on random. Full HD version of the accompanying video can be seen here.

SIGNALVOID is a noise compilation. Participants were asked to create up to three tracks, each of exactly one minute in length, with no gaps of silence at the beginning or end. Download the compilation here: http://archive.org/details/SignalvoidMp3 This piece was my third submission for SIGNALVOID. After “Burn It To Disc And Then Burn The Disc” and “The Same Color As Your […]

Download the compilation here: http://archive.org/details/SignalvoidMp3 This piece was my second submission for SIGNALVOID. I decided to take a much more ambient approach with this track.
