env strings

vivian

ive been exploring text field / .string envelopes in supercollider, where the user can input supercollider code to drive the envelopes, 2 questions, is it possible to create a panning envelope and 2nd is it possible to send text field data back and forth from a lcd or oled? ( is this a osc/send reply situation?)
my lcd arrives next week so prepping to see how far i can go
many thanks

vivian possible to send text field data back and forth from a lcd or oled?

not sure what you mean here ... like "READING" from the LCD/OLED ? that'd be complicated I guess ... you'd have to remember the strings you sent to it to know what is currently being displayed.

giuliomoro yeah that’s exactly what I’m thinking !

I believe @RafaeleAndrade has a good workflow in place for Sc + display which they may want to share.

That would be insanely helpful

vivian Hey Vivian,

In my previous prototypes on Knurl I used a OLED screen in my bow. I never read the code from the OLED screen but probably you have to hack a bit some configuration on linux. I am not the best person to help with that!

If you need some references for connecting the OLED on bela, you can follow those steps:
