• AnalogFoldOsc - Buchla type of Oscillator with built in wavefolder circuit. Based on research by Fabián Esqueda, Henri Pöntynen, Vesa Välimäki and Julian D. Parker.
• BLOsc - Band limited oscillator. Original Author(s): Paul Batchelor, saw2 Faust by Julius Smith. Revisited by Ben Sergentanis for the DaisySP DSP library.
• Chen - Chen's chaotic double scroll attractor, based on code from Bryan Head's alternative Mutable Instruments firmware.
• DCompressor - Compressor from DaisySP DSP library, ported from faust originally by shensley andAvAars originally.
• HarmonicOsc - 16 voice harmonic oscillator. Original code by Èmilie Gillet / Mutable Instruments. Revisited by Ben Sergentanis for the DaisySP DSP library.
• LPG - Virtual analog Buchla Lowpass-gate based on the work of Julian Parker and Stefano D'angelo.
• LockhartWavefolder - A virtual analog wavefolder with anti aliasing built in. Based on the work of Fabián Esqueda, Henri Pöntynen, Julian D. Parker and Stefan Bilbao.
• NeoFormant - Formant oscillator with aliasing-free phase reset. Original code by Èmilie Gillet / Mutable Instruments. Revisited by Ben Sergentanis for the DaisySP DSP library.
• NeoVarSawOsc - Variable saw oscillator. Original code by Èmilie Gillet / Mutable Instruments. Revisited by Ben Sergentanis for the DaisySP DSP library.

Installation

Instructions for most systems:

1. Download one of the prebuilt releases. Choose the one that fits your operating system.
2. Unzip the contents in your extensions directory (If you don't know where this is, open up SuperCollider and evaluate Platform.userExtensionDir - the path will be posted in the post window).
3. Recompile class library.

Building and installing from within SuperCollider

If you have Plugins.quark installed in your SuperCollider system, you can run the following line of code from SuperCollider. This will get the dependencies, build and install the plugins.

Plugins.installPlugin("portedplugins")

Arch Linux:

yay -S supercollider-portedplugins

RaspberryPi OS / ALARM:

See the accompanying script for downloading, building and installing the plugins.

Building

Requirements

• CMake >= 3.5
• SuperCollider source code

Preparations for a build

Clone the project:

git clone https://github.com/madskjeldgaard/portedplugins
cd portedplugins
git submodule update --init --recursive

This will get you the portedplugins.

Before continuing, you need two things:

First, the SuperCollider source code :

git clone https://github.com/supercollider/
