@Andrés:

I ran some tests on Csound awhile back in terms of converting seconds into samples. Providing my test didn’t have any logic errors, it showed that converting back and forth between samples and seconds still produced sample accurate values. I did this for both the 32 and 64 bit versions. The same will hopefully be true for Slipmat.

Let’s take a look a hypothetical situation. Assuming the time at which an interpreter event is logged happens in the middle of a k-block, the event would be quantized to start at the next k-rate pass.

There’s another possibility for recording live coding sessions, which I thought about immediatly posting this blog, is that instead of recording the events as shown above, every key stroke is logged. It would probably work like a MIDI file, where every key stroke event is serialized as a [delta time, ascii code] pair. This wouldn’t necessarily be limited to key strokes, either.

People could then trade live coding sessions like they trade mp3s and code, and then watch “the show” at their own convenience.

“hi-res version of your live performance”

I like this idea. A lot.

Cheers,

Andrés
