First approach of Csound module in Usine

Here a first introduction to the use of the Csound user module from Martin Eastwood.

Load your first .csd file

Let’s start with an empty workspace. Open Menu/File/New Empty Workspace or press [Ctrl+N] .

And double click on the first control panel:

We suppose you have create your own library and unpack the Csound module and his example inside.

Now,open the browser using [Ctrl+B] and just drag & drop the Csound module in the patch.

Then, click on the load button and load the Csoud wiki example 1 file in your library.

This example is a double Oscillator with amplitude, pitch and detune parameters.

Add some modules

Now we’re going to click and drag a wire from the outlet audio outs of the module and choose audio output from the menu.

With the same method, we add 2 vertical faders from the parameter 1 & 4 inlets.

2 step modules from the parameters 2 and 5 inlets

And at last, from the parameter 3 inlet we add a knob, following we will relay this knob to the parameter 6 inlet, this way we have 1 unique knob for the 2 parameters:

Rename your modules

Now it’s time to rename those faders and knobs ,click on the module to select it and in his panel control, double click on his caption parameter. Rename the 2 faders volume and the knob detune.

Reorganize the layout

Now right click in the panel and choose unlock. This way, you can move/resize each element to re-organize this patch.

When you’re satisfied with your work right click again and select lock

Add a delay sub-patch

Now, we can add a delay effect to this patch. In the browser/usine drag & drop the delay sub-patch directly on the square of the audio outs wire and choose insert sub-patch:
