This is the second episode of a beginner's course in SuperCollider that will teach you from the ground up what you need to know to start making music. SuperCollider is a free and open source synthesis language used by artists worldwide to realize musical and sonic ideas. Despite it's large and helpful community, many people still find it hard knowing how to get started with SC. The focus of this workshop series is to get you over that initial learning hump and into a place where you feel comfortable enough with SC to dive deeper on your own.
