Neato... I'm glad stuff like this exists in the world. I'm gonna steal some ideas for my own project (Skred). Thanks!

My stupid github.io page loads the inline YT viewer about 50% of the time... don't know if it's a Central Europe problem or a ME problem...

Thanks! Give it a try and let me know if it's usable... the learning page should give a bit of a start on my ASCII notation.

This is amazing and might be exactly what I’m looking for my own weirdo retro tooling that sometimes needs to run over ssh but also expect a “GUI” experience… any metrics on the overhead this might add to, for instance to a hello world type

Many updates... if you're still watching this, try it out here: https://octetta.github.io/k-synth

It might not be obvious (and doesn’t work on my iPhone or iPad), but if you right click on pads with sounds loaded, you can mess with the pitch of sounds, rename them, and download a wav file for use elsewhere.

I fixed a few broken examples in the README.md file but I don't have the related readme.html file used in the web app getting automatically updated, so they're out of sync at the moment.

I'm looking forward to checking out your stuff...

Fun. I've lost count of the languages I've learned and gotten paid to use over the years, but it's mostly very exciting to add a new one to the list. Haskell is one I haven't used yet. The closest I've come to that

A warning... if you save a setup to JSON, it naively stores the generated waveforms put in slots and the notebook, so the files can become quiet large. I have a plan to just keep the code behind the waves and regenerate the waveforms at loa

On the C-side, I'm going to add a UDP listener to the code so I can send k-synth incantations live from Emacs (something I did for my skred program at the suggestion of an Emacs user). Let me know if anyone wants to know about this whe

Doesn't matter. Just happy people are doing weird stuff like this and appreciate the share. I looked at a bunch of APL-ish implementations and kind of ran with the K-simple code (links on the repo). What background do you come to J fro

Wowie! I'M NOT WORTHY! Cool stuff!

I'll take a look... it's probably not obvious, but the language engine is actually written in C and emscripten-ed to WASM, so I've already crossed several bridges to get this done. Absolutely riff off this interface... would

Wow! I had no idea, will look here for inspiration too. Thanks!

At any rate, in case it's hard to see, definitely try loading the dm-bell.ks patch, putting it in slot one so the melodic pad can play it... it's quick and dirty to see what's capable in a few keystrokes... although I'm

Strudel (and PureData, and ChucK, and SuperCollider, and AMY) are all great projects, but they weren't scratching my itch, so after I got laid off from a FAANG role, I rage/anxiety started writing code for stuff fun-ner than writi

BQN kicks-ass and I've spent hours listening to the Array Cast podcast while in SoCal traffic. I'll check his stuff out with an eye towards the audio stuff. I'm an APL newb... while I've been writing code-for-cash foreve

Wowie... Jart commented! I'm on it my friend. Certainly sequencing is a good thing to add.

I should have humbly said: I know about AMY/Tulip, PureData, ChucK, SuperCollider and they are each AWESOME!... I just wanted to try something different while developing waveforms and drum samples for another project I'm working o
