The overtone cheat sheet says there is an overtone.inst.bass but I can’t find it in the repo

Hi, is there a way to require all vars in a namespace, so I can make use of code completion and stuff?

coledubs21:11:56

(:use) does that i believe? depending on yr text editor

sveri21:11:45

hm, does not work for cursive

coledubs21:11:57

hrm, emacs-live is basically set up to do overtone FWIW, but the emacs learning curve is a bit harsh

coledubs21:11:27

though this sounds like a “clojure reqs in general” issue and not an overtone-specific one

sveri21:11:36

Totally agreed, I tried it three times but my brain just does not want to memorize all the key strokes

coledubs21:11:05

lol, i’ve found ther are about a dozen or so commands I use and the rest I look up as needed. but i had the luxury of letting my work pay me to spend time learning emacs 😎

sveri21:11:13

Thats true too, it's just that the example shows a single use statement and then can use all the auto imported vars

sveri21:11:43

Well, I could start ranting about emacs for maybe an hour, but, nope, not again 😄

coledubs21:11:28

yeah, i’d try the question in another channel, it sounds like its some sort of cursive bug or dependency issue or smth.

sveri21:11:16

coledubs: kk, thank you very much

Is there a resource to pipe overtone to MIDI out?

surreal.analysis21:11:32

Essentially, instead of calling (piano note) I'd like to send that note to a midi device

surreal.analysis22:11:06

Plays arpeggios, nothing fancy

coledubs22:11:25

@surreal.analysis: NICE i have struggled to get overtone to send proper midi messages :< that arpeggiator looks like exactly what I needed to build for my “band” 😹

coledubs22:11:19

well, sending midi notes out is easy, sending control messages seems impossible :< either that or my sampler has a broken midi implementation (which is actually quite likely)
