A Tremolo AU plugin with Max

April 30, 2013 by Varun Nair

A Tremolo AU plugin with Max

Last week I came across a post on the Cycling '74 Wiki about exporting gen~ code into an AU plugin. It looked too simple a process to be true, so I began investigating. After a few hours of work (and some help from the C74 forums because I stumbled across a bug) I managed to  get a simple distortion plugin working. The whole process is actually quite simple, after you spend a … [Read more...]

A Quick Introduction to SuperCollider

Guest Contribution by Graham Gatheral Let's be honest: code can be daunting. All those words and numbers and operators and punctuation errors... For a start, there's no GUI. How are you supposed to make anything without a GUI?! Well, as we'll see later we can make a GUI-based synth in SuperCollider with just a few dozen lines of code! But let's put GUIs to one side for now, … [Read more...]
