Can csound-expression be used for Supercollider style live coding? #19

Closed lpil closed 9 years ago

lpil commented 9 years ago

Hello!

So with Supercollider (and more interestingly, the Clojure environment Overtone), one can write, evaluate, and modify synths lives in order to create music and perform live. Writing code in an editor, and then sending it to a process making the bleeps and bloops. This is something I'm very interested in!

The Csound wikipedia page implies that this is now possible with Csound6, though I can find little more information beyond that. Is it possible to do this with csound-expression

Cheers, Louis

Hello,

This kind of performance is not possible with CE. We can generate code and render it. there are two stages. As far as I understand In Csound6 we can send notes to theworking instance of csound and we change the instrument trees (the instrument expression can be changed live).

Right now I don't consider upgrading CE for the live coding. But there are live capabilities in CE too. They rely on more conventional tools like sliders, knobs and buttons. We can build GUIs.

That's a shame. Thanks for the info. :)
