-====== Noise, Electronics and Code ======
-A tutorial to get you started creating electronic and experimental music on your computer.
-We are also starting a weekly event to perform computer electronic music on [[https://anonradio.net/code-battle-zone/|anonradio]]. During this event, we came up with the idea of having a common place to share our experience with different tools to create computer music.
-===== Overview =====
-In a live performance, you might end up using multiple tools. For example, you might have a 'control' or 'sequencer' or an 'algorithm' which would trigger a sound sample or a synth tool. This would then be fed into an effect and mixer, and finally, you would send that to a tool to broadcast or to record in a DAW (digital audio interface).
-{{:misc:chain.png?600|}}
-Some tools like pureData can do all of this on one platform. Even using only pureData, you would end up similarly separating your workflow.
-To connect all these tools, you will often need to rely on a system to help you route your midi from one too to the other and route the sound to the right destination.  [[https://drobilla.net/software/patchage.html|Patchage]] is one tool that can be used for this.
-[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI|MIDI]] and [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Sound_Control|OSC]] are the two communication languages which can be used for that connectivity. While MIDI is a more mature system which is used on hardware synth as well as software synth, OSC is a newer system which offers more possibilities and ease of programming.
-===== Open source softwares =====
-Here is a short list of tools that you can use to start learning about electronic music creation on your computer. Most of these tools are open source.
-==== Programming Language ====
-Any programming language can be used to create music, but some languages are created for that goal.
-Here is a short list of some of the main tools to code your music:
-  * pureData Visual Programing language for audio (and visuals) [[https://puredata.info/]]
-  * SuperColliderA platform for audio synthesis and algorithmic composition, used by musicians, artists and researchers working with sound.  [[https://supercollider.github.io/]]
-  * Processing is a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code.  [[https://processing.org]]
-  * Chuck Strongly-timed, Concurrent, and On-the-fly Music Programming Language [[https://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/]]
-  * Orca - Text-based sequencer [[https://hundredrabbits.itch.io/orca]]
-==== Soft synth ====
-  * DIN (Din is Noise) - Soft synth with a different approach [[https://dinisnoise.org/]]
-  * vcvRack - Modular synth simulator [[https://vcvrack.com/]]
-===== Programable Hardware  =====
-  * Organelle - Programable synth in pureData[[https://www.critterandguitari.com/organelle]]
-  * Norns - Lua scripting synth, from the makers of monomes [[https://monome.org/docs/norns/]]
-  * Daisy seed - Arduino based synth on a chip [[https://www.electro-smith.com/daisy/daisy]]
-===== Organizations and events =====
-   * Toplap Temporary Organisation for the Parsimony of Live Art Programming [[https://toplap.org/]]
-   * Fakedac A perpetual event dedicated to audio visuals (AV) live coding, algorave & new algorithmic artforms [[https://fakedac.net/]]
