Hey!
I meant in scratch. The only uses I have seen for the list block are to concatenate a list of one character strings.
Ah, right. Personally I think the behavior of (Snap!) JOIN when given non-text inputs is weird and useless; I would have restricted its domain to text (including numbers). But we do it because Scratch does.
It turns out the pitch effect is nice and easy to replicate. Don't need to touch the audio samples at all.
(Btw, I think it's unfortunate that Scratch uses all these weird, opaque units like decisemitones. Snap! does it right by using the SI unit for frequency here.)
there's a problem with that, when stop all sounds block is ran, the block keeps running without the sound.
much better (also, here's the script, but you can also use a list of samples in the input
and these work because the new sound reporter is much faster than in snap 5.4.5
Very nice! I love how you use the new audio primitives in exactly the way I was hoping them to be used, including looking up the equal temperament formula as discovered by 朱載堉 Zhu Zaiyu「律學新說」and formulated by Simon Stevin in the 16th/17th century!
BTW I'm going to show something very similar, the Karplus-Strong "digitar" algorithm this Thursday in my EC-TEL keynote address "The Music Comes Out Of The Piano" https://ectelfi20.org/sessions/morning-welcome-and-keynote-3. Apparently that talk is going to be live-streamed to https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIJkmXGs46ZfV38KxXf4N1Q?view_as=subscriber you so don't have to register for the conference to watch it.

Keynote at 8:30am in what time zone?
CEST, the conference was going to take place in Heidelberg before COVID-19 turned it into an online event.
So if we're still on Daylight Savings Time it's 00:30 for me. :~/ I guess I'll still be awake...
So that's 2:30 AM EDT. I'm up that late right now, but I really shouldn't be. Especially shouldn't stay up an extra 90 minutes past that, so I'm afraid I won't be able to watch live.
JS code for this block:
[scratchblocks]
speak [hello] ::pen
[/scratchblocks]
var msg = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance("hello");
window.speechSynthesis.speak(msg);
Yes, I know that there are other blocks that change the tune of the voice and this command can't do it.
Block code I made:
JShint:Redundant code "window." detected.
lmao just joking
chinese?
Yep! Chinese prince of the Ming dynasty, mathematician, physicist, choreographer and musician. Famous for his work on equal temperament in music.
is he 朱元璋?
oh no i see
I don't know Chinese letters, but I've also found him spelled 朱载堉 or referred to as 鄭端靖世子
