ConductorPlayer
Extension
ExtensionDescription
ConductorPlayer provides unified control for any collection of 'players', which are objects that respond to stop/play/pause/resume. The player classes listed above (ActionPlayer, PatternPlayer, TaskPlayer, and NodeProxyPlayer) adapt standard classes to this interface.
Groups, Synths, Control Buses, and Buffers can be controlled with Events.
The instance variable server can contain either a single Server or an array of Servers. ConductorPlayer bundles all of the OSC commands generated in response to stop/play/pause/resume for the servers in that variable.
Instance Methods
Instance Variables
.conductor
Returns:
the Conductor that is the context for its players
.name
Discussion:
the name is used in GUI display
.server
Discussion:
A server or array of servers, all of the OSC commands generated in response to stop/play/pause/resume are bundled for the server(s).
.players
Returns:
the players controlled by the ConductorPlayer
Instance Methods
.play
.stop
.pause
.resume
.add
A player is an object that respods to stop, play, pause, resume
.remove
.action
Adds an ActionPlayer which responds to play, stop, pause, and resume by evaluating the corresponding function with the Conductor as currentEnvironment.
.task
Adds a TaskPlayer which plays the function within a task scheduled by the specified clock and quantization. (On stop, tasks that block on a message port are also be deleted.)
.pattern
Adds a PatternPlayer which plays the pattern with the specified event, clock and quantization.
.nodeProxy
Adds a NodeProxy, which uses the following bus, numChannels, and group if specified, otherwise uses default values. See BusPlug
.group
The event is assigned CVEvent-groupEvent as its parent.
Arguments:
| ev |
The events use the same keys as note events in patterns. The keys server, group, and addAction and, for synths, instrument determine the group or synth. As in patterns, the default values for these keys are Usually the node ID of the group or synth is dynamically allocated, but the key id can be set to set the id directly. For group events, a new group or collection of groups is created with the specified id(s). For synth events, no synths are created, but the control values determined by the event are sent to the specified id(s). | ||||||||||
| cvs |
The argument args is an interleaved array of keys and CVs (or value). CVs can also be altered before being sent to the server and combinations of CVs can determine the value to be sent:
|
.synth
The event is assigned CVEvent-synthEvent as its parent.
.controlBus
Arguments:
| ev |
The event can specify |
| cvs |
CVs is an array of CVs that are used to determine the value of consecutive buses |
.buffer
Arguments:
| ev |
This event is designed primarily for small waveform buffers, it specifies:
|
.makeBundles
This is called by play,stop, pause and resume to bundle all of OSC commands sent to any of the Servers listed in the instance variable server.
.draw
Draws the ConductorPlayer in a ConductorGUI.
