@christoph-hart i just modeled the sound I was looking for with csound :) hope we can include this in some way into Hise soon

Forget about Csound...
is coming :)
-
@christoph-hart what is it??? Where is a tutorial or something. Can't find anything googling it (want to be ready for your release :)
-
Well it's a new visual programming environment that I am currently developing. None of the candidates so far perfectly fitted the requirements:
- PD is not embeddable and has a runtime overhead
- Faust is a bit too nerdy :)
- CSound is not embeddable
- Max/MSP is proprietary
Basically it combines the workflow of Max/MSP and PD with the code generation facilities of Faust. You can build your algorithm using a visual programming environment and it spits out C++ code that replicates your algorithm. During development you can use a (rather slow) interpreter, but when you export plugins, it will use the C++ code that should be optimized by modern compilers to a degree of hand-written C++.
There's also a "Javascript" node, which can be used for certain tasks that are better implemented using a text-based approach.
-
@christoph-hart wow!!!!!!! This is why I couldn't find it. Can't wait :) I can do the visual identity for hnode if u wish
-
What is the purpose of hnode? Is it designed to work alongside the existing scripting language? Can it do things that HISE Script can't do?
-
Yes it will be an addition to the scripting possibilities.
Its focus is primarily on developing DSP functions, everything else (event processing, UI design) is handled by the surrounding script processor.
I am not 100% settled how the exact integration will work though (currently it‘s just a standalone prototyping app), but most likely it will resemble the way you can embed external C++ code using the DSP API.
And yes it can do one thing that the scripting engine can‘t do: deliver native code performance ;)
-
@christoph-hart sorry for my ignorance. If I have let's say, a Karplus-Strong algorithm written in C++, is there a way to use it these days within Hise?
-
Not without wrapping it into a native HISE sound generator that comes with all kinds of required wrapper code.
In hnode it will be much more easily since the interface is more simple. I'll also include some DSP libraries like the Synthesis Toolkit as readymade nodes, which will contains these kinds of algorithms.

@christoph-hart wow! I was playing with STK on Faust and it rocks!!!
