ScPy

This project lets you embed Python code inside of SuperCollider programs, enabling the use of more computationally intensive vector operations in realtime than would be possible with SuperCollider alone.

For all the details, read the paper.

build

You need Python 3, NumPy, make, and g++ or clang++.

If your SuperCollider extensions dir is not ~/.local/share/SuperCollider/Extensions, you will have to set SC_EXT_DIR appropriately before building. $ cd ugen $ make install

If you are using Ubuntu you might have to do the following: $ cd ugen $ make ubuntuinstall

As we have had linking issues with python on Ubuntu 16.04.

run

Check out the examples.

This was tested with SuperCollider >=3.6.6 and Python 3.5.2.

Using the latest SuperCollider allows you to do larger FFTs.

If you run into problems, please file an issue!

docs

The interface:

Py(code, args=(), doneAction=0) PyOnce(code, args=(), doneAction=2) PyFile(filename, args=(), doneAction=0) PyOnceFile(filename, args=(), doneAction=2) Where:

• code is a String containing Python code, or filename is a String containing the name of a Python file.
• args is an Event mapping from Python variable names to SuperCollider values/variables.
• doneAction is a DoneAction which is performed after the code runs once.

The Once versions are different in that they are not UGens, but rather run the code immediately. They have the doneAction argument set such that they terminate after running the Python code once.

All NumPy functions are imported for you automatically. Variables defined at the top level in a Python block are accessible globally in other Python blocks. Some additional useful things which are accessible are defined in ugen/python/api.py.

Currently supported SuperCollider types and corresponding Python types:

• Float -> float
• UGen -> ndarray of float
• Buffer -> ndarray of float
• FFT -> ndarray of complex
• Array -> list
