Hello everyone,

I just published the first edition of "Amen Break PythonScore Tutorial":

http://jacobjoaquin.github.io/csd/amen_tutorial.html

I've also made some revisions to PythonScore module itself. First, the official name is PythonScore, one name, and have dropped the "pysco" part. Second, I've revised it to be a pure module and eliminated the original hacky way of setting things up in CsScore. There's a few more lines of code to get it setup in the score, but the trade off is that it'll be much better at being backwards compatible once the specification of the module is finalized. Plus, it'll work outside of the CsScore. Third, I've renamed some of the functions. Overall, it's working much better, and I have a clear path to refining it end extending it further.

Best,

Jake

Very nice, thanks for sharing that!

Seems perfect, thank you!

You could add an explanation of the inline function, the Python lambda. For instance:

# sample, t, duration, amplitude, freq, velocity

melodicNote = lambda s, t, d, a, f, v: 'i 300 %f %f %f %d %f %f\n' % (t, d, a, s, f, v)

The above function (lambda) could invoke an event an instrument in an orchestra:

instr 300

; Sampler with declick for guitar and other melodic instruments

adeclick linseg 0, 0.02, 1, p3 - 0.05, 1, 0.02, 0, 0.01, 0

iamplitude = p4

ivelocity = p7

ifrequency = p6

isample = p5

a1 loscil iamplitude * ivelocity, ifrequency, isample, 330

outs adeclick * a1, adeclick * a1

endin

I don't know how to write CSD code; instead, I use the code above because I prefer Python.
