SECTION::SuperCollider Language
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
LIST::
|
|
##Improved link::Classes/Quark:: system and many new interesting Quarks.
|
|
##LINK::Classes/TempoClock#-beats:: can be set.

SUBSECTION::External Interfacing
|
|
|
|
There is an entirely new HID (Human Interface Device) implementation: see link::Guides/Working_with_HID:: that works cross platform (Linux and macOS thus far). This deprecates the GeneralHID interface. Also the link::Classes/LID:: interface has been updated to match the API of the new HID implementation.

SUBSECTION::New methods and classes
|
|
|
|
LIST::
|
|
##link::Classes/Collection#-collectCopy::, link::Classes/Collection#-collectInPlace::

|
##link::Classes/SimpleNumber#-lcm:: and link::Classes/SimpleNumber#-gcd:: have consistent interpretations of negative values and zero.
|
|
##link::Classes/Dictionary#-embedInStream:: can be customized from within the dictionary.

SECTION::SuperCollider Server
|
|
|
|
Apart from UDP, the TCP-protocol is now supported.
|
|
|
|
When mapping controls of synths to busses, their number of channels is limited to the number of control channels, avoiding a "spill-over" of mappings.
|
|
|
|
SUBSECTION::List of new UGens
|
|
|
|
LIST::
|
|
##NodeID (UGen that returns the current node id)
|
|
##LINK::Classes/Dconst::
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
SUBSECTION::Improved or corrected behavior
|
|
LIST::
|
|
##LINK::Classes/LinXFade2:: (correct fading direction)
|
|
##LINK::Classes/LFPulse:: (when width = 0.5, return exactly as many 0 as 1)
|
|
##LINK::Classes/TrigControl:: is now independent of synth order, like LINK::Classes/Control::.
|
|
##LINK::Classes/TRand::, LINK::Classes/TExpRand::, LINK::Classes/TIRand:: (can operate at audio rate)
|
|
##LINK::Classes/Env#*new:: accepts a new TELETYPE::step2:: shape, which steps to a value at the end of a shape
|
|
##LINK::Classes/UGen#-curvelin:: is now inverse of LINK::Classes/UGen#-lincurve::
|

|
|
::
|
|
|
|
|
|
SUBSECTION::More operators work uniformly across sclang and scserver
|
|
|
|
The following operators have been added as UGens and work the same as in sclang:
|
|
|
|
TABLE::
|
|
##unary operators || code::rand, rand2, linrand, bilinrand, sum3rand, coin::
|
|
|
|
##binary operators || code::lcm, gcd, rrand, exprand::
