My Approach To SuperCollider
91In this video, I'll share with you how I got started on SuperCollider. Truth be told, my first experience in SC wasn't pretty. I was an aspiring student composer who fell flat on her face. But, years later, my lingering curiosity got the best of me, and I pursued SC. Now, I'm happily residing in a program that is equal to Logic Pro in my creative process.
My story is for those who want to learn this language but feel intimidated because they might not have the programming experience. Jump right in. SuperCollider is an instrument. Practice every day, and you'll be proficient.
Please note, SC is awesome. But it can be dangerous, if you're not sure what you're writing. Always practice with headphones plugged into your computer or audio interface.
