First I collected some ideas for text based sequencing in order to fill in the ability realm of #Ableton Live. I’ve took some essential hints from Atari #Notator which are part of Apple’s #Logic now.

I think I was guided by Millward’s #Soundsynthesis with VST instruments. Mixed it up with R #soundanalysis by Jerome Sueur and produced a first glimpse into sound synthesis at

Now I’m figuring out how to funnel midi output of #lilypond composition driven by #SQLite repositories into #chuck processing lines.

My integrated development environment IDE is #orgmode -> #emacs -> Debian. Also experienced Ubuntu and endeavorOS, but definitely 100% gnu Linux. Well I maintain a service line to #PureData.

Heartily welcome for collaboration requests.

I need help. I have rescued my old #AtariST and have lots an lots of disks. I can dump them with ddrescue, but I cannot mount them / read them. I know it's only the magic number, but I don't remember the magic number I would have to change, does anybody remember / know? (my google Foo does not help anymore).

And, as my father was a musician and I have lots and lots of #Notator files, is somebody out there with knowledge of the Notator file format?

?Interested in?

#Rstats -> #seewave #tuneR #tabr

#linux -> #linuxaudio #soundgen #ffmpeg #ecasound #sox #mpd #melt

#emacs #orgmode -> #R #lilypond bash-#chuck

Motivation -> #atari #notator substitute, #spectrumAnalysis instead of #ableton #warp, #chuck recording, from #chuck sequencer to #soundDesign, #lilypond arrangements to #webSound (a new #chuck branch)

YES - I'm lucky enough to have a MIST (from Lotharek cos I got my #UltraSatan from him previously) and it's mint. Rock solid, I leave it as an #AtariST.

BUT if it could just be madder and host all these sound-creating wonders AND some flash for sampling.... much better! Oooh, and a CD/DVD drive for loading old sample CDs?

Something like that running #Linux would be a monster. Seriously, I'd pay stupid money for that just to run #Notator, not even a #DAW

@jayrope I might call myself a ChucK investigator. After defeating my dislikes of the terminology (chucking, sporking, screduling) I’m convinced of ChucK‘s potential for any kind of concurrent process control. Obviously #chuck is not a good hashtag for finding it. Same with the guppe group chuck you’re proposing. What about spork or scredule? chorkule? Too far off? Or perhaps the collaboration medium could be something completely different, like a #mumble room. Or the good old chat rooms. My best experience was with their book „programming for musicians…“, Kapur et al. And the Ge’s PhD explains the details. See https://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/ for reference. But this tends to make ChucK a bookware which runs against http://gnu.org/philosophy/free-doc.html Just working on a publication which involves R packages like #tuneR and #seewave, ChucK, and #lilypond. It’s wrapped around the first chapter of the Kapur et al book. Right now I’m focusing on the event mechanism for loop sequencing, with an eye on Atari #Notator like event and score handling
