CornBucket score generator for MacOS X

Hello Csounders,

I am announcing the availablility of a Carbonized version of CornBucket that
now runs natively on both MacOS X and MacOS 8-9 (with CarbonLib).  If you
are not familiar with CornBucket, a description is given below.  You can
download it from here:

Enjoy!

CornBucket is a Csound score generator for granular synthesis.  CornBucket
allows you to draw functions of time for several different parameters that
guide the evolution of a granular cloud.  The functions you draw can be one
or more cycles of a simple waveform (sine, triangle, etc.), multiplicative
combinations of several simple waveforms, or can be hand drawn.  Once you
are satisfied with your functions, just hit “Go” and CornBucket calculates
all of the parameters for each grain and writes a Csound score to disk.

CornBucket was written by Tom Erbe of the UCSD Dept. of Music.  He is also
the author of the famous Mac sound manipulation program Soundhack.  Tom was
gracious enough to provide source code with his original distribution of
CornBucket and to allow me to distribute this updated version as well.  He
just asks that it “remains free and open.”

CornBucket 1.02 is a port of CornBucket 1.01 to Apple’s Carbon framework —
basically, it now runs “natively” on MacOS X and continues to run on MacOS 8
and 9 if you have CarbonLib installed.  I have not changed the interface
since the previous version.  I only made the necessary changes to get it
running on OS X and fixed a few minor bugs along the way.

You can direct questions, comments, bug reports, and feature requests to me
if you like.  I cannot promise that I will continue to update CornBucket,
but I will answer your email and maybe you will inspire me to do some more
work on the program.  πŸ™‚

CornBucket 1.01 PPC, 68K, (along with Soundhack) are available from:
http://www.soundhack.com/

CornBucket Carbon should be on that site soon as well.
