Searching the archive, there has been very little mention of SuperCollider on this list in the past year. I have been learning SuperCollider since the summer and think it's super. I wanted to share with you all what I have made: a tool called SCVamp for improvising music with a GUI programmed in SuperCollider. http://the3rd2nd.com/SCVamp/ You might like to listen to some examples. Here are two zips of mp3s. The first set contains nine mp3s (about 45 minutes of music), and the second has two mp3s (10 minutes of music); each set uses different synth sounds and scales. All of the tracks were improvised with this SuperCollider program and recorded in Ardour; they were also very quickly processed with Jamin. http://the3rd2nd.com/mp3/SCVamp_ensemble_a_mp3s.zip http://the3rd2nd.com/mp3/SCVamp_ensemble_b_mp3s.zip More information about the audio is here: http://the3rd2nd.com/SCVamp/about-scvamp/audio-examples/ I would love to hear your feedback, criticism, suggestions, and advice.
