Yesterday, I was poking around on the Internet and discovered that
Audacity can be scripted using a language called
Nyquist, which is a LISP variant. Since trying it out, I've made a few useful plug-ins for Audacity. Just download
this zip file and extract it to your plug-ins folder in Audacity. Included is a plug-in to generate a variety of scales, a chromatic tones plug-in, a random-notes generator, and a chord generator. Have fun!
P.S. For those of you who don't know LISP, take a look at the .ny files to get a feel for how it works. I found writing these to be a good refresher; the last time I programmed anything in LISP was perhaps 2 years ago.
dude, you didn't know about Nyquist?
Ive known about it since October--when I downloaded Audacity
I futzed with it a bit, but I haven't used Audacity for a while.
Well there you have it. I actually took the time to
learn Nyquist and make some useful plug-ins.
I've never really gotten into LISP, the syntax didn't appeal to me the first time I saw it. I should really learn it though, as Garry's Mod (for HL2) uses it....
While LISP's syntax is funky, it is a nice change of pace.
Push 4
Push 5
Mult....
That's not LISP.
It's pseudoLISP; I was just showing the general idea of how it works. That could also be expressed by:
4,5,*
You are confusing me. Do you mean
Code: (* 4 5)
?

I think you are confusing LISP (which is prefix notation) with RPN notation
Indeed, I think you may be correct Kllrnohj.
