Workshop: Manipulating audio samples in ChucK (bring your own sample!)
This online workshop introduces the basics of manipulating audio samples using only a laptop and the free ChucK software. Participants will learn how to load a sample, play it at varying speeds (including backwards), loop it, and perform other transformations. Registrants will receive a sample program and information on how to modify it to load their own .WAV file, and the workshop will focus on modifying this program. The workshop leader will also demonstrate sample manipulation using a MIDI controller.
ChucK is a powerful and flexible programming language for creating and modifying sound and music in real time, by creating chains (oscillator/envelope/filter/LFO/delay, etc), manipulating audio samples, and working with time, pitch, and timbre.
No prior knowledge of coding or music is necessary. Participants are encouraged to load the free ChucK software ("mini Audicle") on a laptop and bring it to the clinic so they can code along.
