Welcome to the Class!
getting off to a good start!
Assignment
+ download and install
- [rtcmix~]
-- download at least one version of this object to use with Max/MSP or
pd on Windows or OSX.
- Max/MSP or
pd (Pure Data)
-- the [rtcmix~] object will run in one of these.
Max/MSP is more robust (a lot of extended capabilities that
pd does not have), but it costs money. There are good student
discounts available. pd is free. note: you do not
need RNBO for this class if you are purchasing Max/MSP.
- Unity
-- you won't need this until late in the semester, but feel
free to go ahead and explore it and the tutorials whenever
you'd like. They're fun!
note: This link will take you to the main Unity page, and you might
have to click
through a bunch of pages to find the download. You can go
directly to the download page here:
to get the package. It uses the "Unity Hub" to manage
your Unity
downloads and projects; it's up to you if you want to use it. The
place to get direct standalone Unity (no Unity Hub) or
older versions of Unity is here:
Be sure (when asked) to say you
are using the "personal" version for free. The others cost money
and are mainly used if you are developing a product with Unity.
