August 2018 - TidalCycles

new release on co-dependent, made with TidalCycles

by Mike Hodnick

Hey everyone, earlier this week some new music of mine was released on Co-Dependent: https://co-dependent.bandcamp.com/album/code218 Uses the new SuperDirt MIDI exclusively. Source code and some notes: https://github.com/kindohm/code218 It's an exploration of continuously changing tempos with `spaceOut` and weighted choices of pattern densities. And fun Harmor VST patches :) Enjoy! -Mike -- Mike Hodnick mike(a)kindohm.com

hello only once

by Malitzin Cortes

Hello community! I wanted to ask something that sure is not new, it is about whether it is possible to send tidal a single cycle and then to be silenced, something to say, "only once", someone has achieved this in the tide ?. Thank you! -- * Malitzin Cortés* class *CNDSD* { float *architecte, musician ,programmer; * Cndsd (float y,float x, float s) { architecte = y; programmer = x; musician = s; } http://malitzincortes.net/ <http://malitzincortes.net/> https://soundcloud.com/cndsd <https://soundcloud.com/cndsd> hola

Issues booting tidal on mac!!

by Auguste Oldham

Hi, I have recently attempted to boot tidal cycles after not using it for some time, I have reinstalled supercollider, atom, superdirt and tidals but keep encountering this error: : error: Could not find module ‘Sound.Tidal.Context’ Perhaps you haven't installed the "dyn" libraries for package ‘tidal-0.9.4’? Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. It has booted superdirt in supercollider fine and says that it is now listening to tidal. I have attempted to reinstall cabal libraries in terminal as it was suggested on one of the threads i was reading but this error has come up: Downloading the latest package list from hackage.haskell.org Warning: --root-cmd is no longer supported, see https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/3353 (if you didn't type --root-cmd, comment out root-cmd in your ~/.cabal/config file) Resolving dependencies...

Sync-ing Among Musicians

by Ben Grange

Hi, In terms of playing live with other performers, I think it would be ideal to be able to start tidal at a certain tempo, as detected by, say, finger taps on the trackpad. If this doesn't already exist, it could be a nice little project for someone to tackle. (Of course, ideally, I would just start the performance and then the guitarist would follow but sometimes s**t happens! :-) Or consider two tidal performers. How could they be synch-ed with a "master" clock?) Best, Ben

How can I extend and shorten some notes when using up?

by Leo Treasure

For example for the melody - "These are a few of my favourite things" in the Sound of Music: d2 $ fast 2 $ sound "feelfx" # up "<0 7 0 2 0 0 -5 0 0 2 0 ~ >" # gain "0.7" #legato "0.5" # unit "r" I'd like to make the notes 7, 2, -5 and 2 longer while making the other notes shorter.

How can I use seqPLoop with more than one dirt channel?

by Leo Treasure

I'm trying to do it so they all play simultaneously with only one evaluation. d1 $ (pure now) ~> seqPLoop [ (0, 12, sound "bd bd*2"), (4, 12, sound "hh*2 [sn cp] cp future*4"), (8, 12, sound (samples "arpy*8" (run 16))) ] d2 $ (pure now) ~> seqPLoop [ (0, 12, sound "arpy*4"), (4, 12, sound "hh*8 [sn*2 cp] cp future*2"), (8, 12, sound (samples "arpy*8" (run 8))) ]

HELP! Can't install troop on linux machines

by Thomas Desai

Hi, I am trying to install troop on some linux machines for an intro workshop on tidal this afternoon, so that it can be routed collaboratively through my computer, reducing need for repetitive installs etc. However I am getting this error every time I try: Traceback (most recent call last): File "run-client.py", line 24, in <module> from src.client import Client File "/home/defis/Documents/Troop-OT/src/client.py", line 3, in <module> from .interface import * File "/home/defis/Documents/Troop-OT/src/interface/__init__.py", line 2, in <module> from .interface import * File "/home/defis/Documents/Troop-OT/src/interface/interface.py", line 9, in <module> from .textbox import ThreadSafeText File "/home/defis/Documents/Troop-OT/src/interface/textbox.py", line 10, in <module> from .peer import * File "/home/defis/Documents/Troop-OT/src/interface/peer.py", line 6, in <module> import tkinter as Tk ImportError: No module named tkinter Does anyone know a way to resolve this? Entirely delete tkinter from each mention in a text editor? Any help would be much appreciated! Tom Sent from [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com), Swiss-based encrypted email.

Peertube instance for live-coding?

by Thaega

Hi all, I don't know if you've heard of the Peertube project, which is a libre and decentralized alternative to Youtube. I had the idea to launch an instance dedicated to live-coding, and I wanted to know if some people would be interested in using it. My main concern is that once I've chosen the domain name, I can't go back and change it unless I start a new instance, so I can't just launch the service using a subdomain of mine and change to something better afterwards. Thus, I'd like to know if people other than me would use it, so that it would be worth investing in a proper domain name. I was thinking about names like algorave.tube (but it's 40€ a year, so it needs to be worth it), or algoravetu.be (only 14€, but slightly less cool), but I'm totally open to suggestions! You can read more about the Peetube project here : https://medium.com/@chocobozzz/peertube-a-federated-video-streaming-platf... https://medium.com/@chocobozzz/why-should-you-feel-concerned-about-peertu...
