SuperCollider🔗

Also see my blog:supercollider and blog:livecoding.

SuperCollider is an open-source object-orientated realtime audio synthesis programming language that runs efficiently across platforms. Below is some of my work for it in the form of classes and plugins.

I also have code published as quarks (AudioMulchClock, Bjorklund, Ease, PopUpTreeMenu, redGrain, redMst, redSampler, redSys, redUniverse, sInstruments, TraerPhysics, UGenPatterns) and here sccode.org/fredrik-olofsson and here sccode.org/redFrik.

SuperCollider Classes🔗

RedDefault🔗

A hacked default synth. Note: this class will overwrite your default synth at recompile. Though it is easy to undo and get back to normal. See the accompanying help file for info. Used to be a quark.

Class for decoding mobile phone text messages (SMS).

download (5kB) version 101204, more info: /f0blog/redpdu/

Bit🔗

Old plugins. Bitwise calculations for SC synth (BitAnd, BitLeftShift, BitNot, BitOr, BitRightShift, BitUnsignedRightShift, BitXor).

download (89kB) (OSX Universal binary + Win binary + source)

Note: SuperCollider version 3.5 now has native support for bitwise operations on UGens, so you can use &, |, bitXor, >>, <<>. My bit plugins are only provided here for backwards compatibility. Do not use them for new projects!

Other SuperCollider Work🔗

sInstruments🔗

A collection of instruments written in collaboration with Tamas Ungvary.

generated synths🔗

Synths generated using the RedGAPhenome class: n_noises and n_fmsynths.
More info and mp3 excerpts.

Synths generated by other means: n_fm7patches (req. Stefan Kersten's FM7 plugin from sc3-plugins.
