SuperCollider 2.29 Demo

by James McCartney        james@astro.as.utexas.edu

SuperCollider is an environment for real time audio synthesis which runs on a Power 
Macintosh with no additional hardware. SuperCollider features: a built in programming 
language with real time incremental garbage collection, first class functions/closures, a 
small object oriented class system, a mini GUI builder for creating a patch control panel, a 
graphical interface for creating wave tables and breakpoint envelopes, MIDI control, a large 
library of signal processing and synthesis functions a few of which are found nowhere 
else, and a large library of functions for list processing of musical data. The user can 
write both the synthesis and compositional algorithms for their piece in the same high
level language. This allows the creation of synthesis instruments with considerably more
 flexibility than allowed in lower level synthesis languages. Since it is easy to create 
control panels and graphic displays, SuperCollider is well suited as a tool for teaching 
various synthesis techniques. 

Screen Shot (Version 1.0)

The demo is crippled in the following ways. It only runs for 30 minutes, and only synthesizes 
for one minute. Function calls to save files are disabled. (You can however save text files in 
the application).
