Scamp is so nice, Marc. Thank you! I've installed it (thanks also for the great documentation) and got the clarinet and oboe going. I'm all excited now and hopeful that my magnum opus will be complete before the week is out. My only concern is that I have previous experience with Python computer music software and I have learned that their trajectories tend to be parabolic. What do you believe the chances are that Scamp reaches orbit?
Thanks so much for the kind words! As far as reaching orbit is concerned, I totally understand your concern. All I can tell you is that it's very much a priority for me, and one of the ways I hope to achieve it is by building a community around it. This includes a forum (scampsters.marcevanstein.com), the Kadenze course I created (www.kadenze.com/courses/computer-assisted-music-in-python-i), the workshops I teach (ccrma.stanford.edu/workshops/comp-with-python), and I just set up a patreon a few days ago as well (www.patreon.com/marcevanstein). If you want to help it reach orbit, joining any of these is helpful! I will say, though, SCAMP is my primary tool as a composer, and I'm also starting to work with scientists to make music from their data (see th-cam.com/video/4Y44PQqmtFQ/w-d-xo.html). So point is, I'm quite invested in it. But it's absolutely true that sustaining these kind of projects is hard. For now, though, I still have fuel in the tank :-)
When I set blocking=False in clarinet.play_chord or clarinet.play_note the notes hold out forever, and don't cut off after the specified duration time... any guess what would cause this?
Instead of using zip() I would probably have done "for i in range(len(pitch_list))" and then passed "pitch_list[i]" and "durs_list[i]" to play_note() inside the loop. Not very elegant nor pythonic but it works 😆 One advantage of this approach is that you could have a list of durations that is shorter than the list of pitches (or vice versa) and use the modulo operator % to cycle the shorter list over the length of the longer one, or make it loop for longer than both lists.
Wow, this is a game changer! It works perfectly in PyCharm. Can't wait to follow more of your tutorials.
ok, so i spent a lot of times to figure out how to use the envelopes with curves...and I must say Scamp is a game changer. its awesome and great!!!!
wow! thanks for this useful information❤ scamp sounds really cool
Thank you for the lovely video. Very informative.

Awesome stuff! Have you tried getting it to play notes in google colab?
Can you use scamp in google colab? I can run the code, but there is no sound
I'm not sure if there's a way of doing that. I've been wanting to look into it myself!
No google colab cant output sound cause google big dum dum
Using SCAMP on Windows 11 OS, which versions of python-rtmidi, abjad, and lilypond should I be using? The latest ones?
Hey! Please, tell me where to find the pitch of all the notes?

The asterisk is a wild card

hi, exemple load_from_json melodies ?
zip 🔥 🔥 🔥
how notes in file csv music ?
