SuperCollider Live Coding with ClaudeCollider

This skill enables live music synthesis using SuperCollider via the ClaudeCollider MCP server.

Related Skills

• Always load /songwriting when composing or improving musical parts (bass lines, chords, melodies, drums). It contains music theory principles and genre conventions that produce better-sounding patterns.
• Use /play-tape to play a tape file.
• Use /record-tape to save a session as a replayable tape.
• Use /arrange-tape to compose an arrangement for a tape.

Quick Reference

1. Drums need \freq, 48 — without it, drums sound wrong
2. Use Pdef for rhythms — patterns that repeat
3. Use Ndef for continuous — pads, drones, textures
4. Symbols not strings — \kick not "kick"
5. Semicolons between statements — no trailing semicolon
6. NEVER Synth() inside Ndef — causes infinite spawning
