The Composer's Tool Kit

Introduction

CTK - The Composer's Tool Kit - is a set of Object classes to aid specifically in the creation of fixed pieces through the use of a Score-like structure. To make general usage easier, the CTK Objects also support real-time control through the .play method. The objects included in the CTK are:

The CTK Objects can be used as a replacement for the object oriented classes in the standard SuperCollider distribution (Synth, Buffer, Group, and Bus). The main difference is that these classes can easily be used to populate a CtkScore for non-real-time (NRT) synthesis.

CTK classes were originally developed by Josh Parmenter. Other contributors include Michael McCrea, Daniel Peterson, and Marcin Pączkowski. These help files are converted from Josh's old help files with an attempt to update information/code where needed.

Disadvantages to the standard object classes:
