Experiments and Ideas how to use Sonic Pi

Sonic Pi Resources

This repository is a personal and (more or less) structured collection of my experiments, ideas and notes of how I use Sonic Pi. As this it will be under permanent construction. Much of this is borrowed and/or inspired by other people.

Sonic Pi is - among others - a live coding environement created by Sam Aaron. For a thorough introduction to Sonic Pi it is best to download and install the program and work through the inbuild tutorial.

A preliminary outline of issues I have in mind and will gradually complete:

• Control rhythmic and melodic processes in time
  • Several Ways to play a melody
  • Use of at
  • Use of spread
  • Simple Samba with spread and at
  • Synchronisation of live_loops
  • Change Parameters per Pattern
• Manipulate sound
  • Filters
  • control a filter
  • Echo and break
  • Noise to music using :bpf
  • Hall-Schwanz
• Synths
  • :fm (frequency modulation)
  • control a running synth
  • control and samples
  • Volume (Blending)
  • Fake L(ow)F(requency)O(sscilator)
• Drums
  • Kick Sound Synthesis
  • Drums and Fill-ins
  • Techno Kick and Hihat Patterns
• Miscellaneous musical ideas and effects
  • Percussion with noise
  • slicer and rhythm
  • reverb
  • Echo and canon
  • Layered samples with different rates
• Music and chance
• Working with Samples
  • Slicing Samples

(I will write in English. This is not my first language. If you find errors and misspellings ignore it or let me know so I can fix that and improve my English.)
