Dear SC users:
I've built a sample instrument using the following architecture:
A python script reads sample files from a Redis database stored on disk and sends OSC messages to super collider with the path and pitch of a random selection of N samples. On the SC side, the key presses form a midi interface are mapped to select and play one or more of the corresponding samples.
The prototype is functional, and I would like to release a beta for testers, however I have no clue on how to package it. One option that seems plausible is wrap it as a VST, but as far as I understand, there is no stable wrapper for SC and the safest bet would be to re-code the entire instrument into VST.
Another option, that seems more viable, would be to wrap it as a standalone instrument. Would I need to have the beta testers have SC installed, or is there a way to wrap a SC server inside an executable?
Any ideas on this issue--even if they divert from my original approach-- will be highly appreciated.
Warm regards,
Pablo
