Hi folks,

All this time waiting for the TI, I've at least had some time to focus on learning more SuperCollider programming ( http://www.audiosynth.com - tutorial here if anyone's interested: http://www.psi-o.net/pseudonym/ )

These are only little snippets, but they are the closest I've got so far to making music with SuperCollider (it's taken about a year just to be able to sequence a kick drum! ) - see what you think:

i dont understand how its posssible to remember all thos code lines.
are thos created as tamplets or building blocks?
ive been messing around with cecilia,a real time version of winsound (c-sound)

i hope to take my shit togther this year and start learning some basic C programing and later on DSP coding 8O

you don't have to remember the lines and lines of code - no more than you have to remember sentence upon sentence of english.. You just learn how to use the grammar and vocabulary, and then you can read/write.

It takes a while to learn a programming language - but once you've learnt one, it's fairly easy to learn another as they all borrow from eachother.

I'd start with a scripting language like JavaScript (Web pages), PHP (Serverside programming) or ActionScript (Macromedia Flash) to learn the concepts, and then go for it with C/Java etc. That's the path I took anyhow...
