OMCollider is a graphical Lisp library interface allowing to create Supercollider instruments by patching modules, something similar to modular synthesizers. The aim of this library is building a bridge between several compositional tools of OpenMusic and SC programming language. The musician can therefore generate a .scd file visually, simply by choosing and connecting a set of boxes.

 

OMCollider is, of course, inspired by several historical Patchwork libraries ,in particular by Pwcollider (Michael Laurson, 1999 ).

 

OMCollider offers an upgraded system to the latest SuperCollider release, as well as integrating it into OpenMusic. 

 

This library is intended both for beginners, so as they can move their first steps on the world of sound design , and for advanced SC users who want to test their musical-programming ideas, playing with input parameters in a graphical user interface in order to generate complex and multi-layered musical textures.
