Series of 2 workshops, Monday 22nd and Tuesday 23rd August 4pm UK, 5pm Berlin, 8am LA, 11am NYC

In this workshop you will learn how to program audio patches within Codebox in Gen~ via Max. Codebox expands the options of working in Gen~ allowing for procedural operations not easily achievable via graphical patching. You will use Codebox to provide programming functionality to your Gen~ audio patches. This workshop aims to enhance your skills in developing creative audio patches via text based coding techniques in Gen~ via the Max environment. Experience with Gen~ is required (i.e. previously completing the Getting Confident With Gen~ course) and familiarity with basic text-based programming techniques (i.e. basic Python etc.).

What you'll learn

Workshop 1: Identify the differences between the Codebox Operator & the GenExpr object
Workshop 1: Configure I/O, parameters and variables in Codebox
Workshop 1: Build abstractions and execute functions in Codebox
Workshop 1: Creatively explore using Codebox in Gen~ patches
Workshop 2: Construct conditional statements in Codebox
Workshop 2: Build programing loops in Codebox
Workshop 2: Utilize buffers, data and the history operator in Codebox
Workshop 2: Continue to creatively explore using Codebox in Gen~ patches
