 | class:: Ndef
summary:: node proxy definition
categories:: Libraries>JITLib>NodeProxy
related:: Classes/ProxySpace, Classes/Tdef
description::
Reference to a proxy, forms an alternative to link::Classes/ProxySpace::. All methods are inherited from link::Classes/NodeProxy::.
code::
Ndef(key)	//returns the instance
Ndef(key, obj)	//stores the object and returns the instance, like Tdef and Pdef.
::
Graphical editor overviewing all current Ndefs: link::Classes/NdefMixer::. A general overview: link::Overviews/JITLib::.
subsection::First Example
code::
s.boot;
Ndef(\a).play; // play to hardware output.
Ndef(\a).fadeTime = 2; // fadeTime specifies crossfade
// set the source
Ndef(\a, { SinOsc.ar([350, 351.3], 0, 0.2) });
Ndef(\a, { Pulse.ar([350, 351.3] / 4, 0.4) * 0.2 });
Ndef(\a, Pbind(\dur, 0.03, \freq, Pbrown(0, 1, 0.1, inf).linexp(0, 1, 200, 350)));
Ndef(\a, { Ringz.ar(Ndef.ar(\b), [350, 351.3] * 8, 0.2) * 4 });
Ndef(\b, { Impulse.ar([5, 7]/2, [0, 0.5]) });
Ndef.clear(3); // clear all after 3 seconds
::
ClassMethods::
private::initClass
subsection::Creation
method::new
Return a new node proxy and store it in a global ProxySpace under the key. If there is already an Ndef there, replace its object with the new one. The object can be any supported class, see link::Classes/NodeProxy:: help.
argument::key
If key is an association, it is interpreted as strong::key -> server name::. (order changed in SC3.3 !). If no name is given, it uses the default server that was default when Ndef was first called. (to change it, see link::#*defaultServer::).
argument::object
an object
method::ar
equivalent to code::*new(key).ar(numChannels, offset):: (see link::Classes/NodeProxy:: help for ar method)
method::kr
equivalent to code::*new(key).kr(numChannels, offset):: (see link::Classes/NodeProxy:: help for kr method)
method::clear
clear all proxies
method::defaultServer
set the default server (default: code::Server.default::)
method::all
Return the dictionary of all servers, pointing to proxyspaces with Ndefs for each.
code::
Ndef.all;
::
method::dictFor
Return the proxyspace for a given server.
code::
Ndef.dictFor(s);
::
Examples::
code::
s.boot;
Ndef(\sound).play;
Ndef(\sound).fadeTime = 1;
Ndef(\sound, { SinOsc.ar([600, 635], 0, SinOsc.kr(2).max(0) * 0.2) });
Ndef(\sound, { SinOsc.ar([600, 635] * 3, 0, SinOsc.kr(2 * 3).max(0) * 0.2) });
Ndef(\sound, { SinOsc.ar([600, 635] * 2, 0, SinOsc.kr(2 * 3).max(0) * 0.2) });
Ndef(\sound, Pbind(\dur, 0.17, \freq, Pfunc({ rrand(300, 700) })) );
Ndef(\lfo, { LFNoise1.kr(3, 400, 800) });
Ndef(\sound).map(\freq, Ndef(\lfo));
Ndef(\sound, { arg freq; SinOsc.ar([600, 635] + freq, 0, SinOsc.kr(2 * 3).max(0) * 0.2) });
Ndef(\lfo, { LFNoise1.kr(300, 400, 800) });
Ndef.clear; //clear all
::
subsection::Simple audio routing with the <<> operator
code::
(
Ndef(\sound, {
	RHPF.ar(
		\in1.ar([0, 0]) * \in2.ar([0, 0]),
		\freq.kr(6000, 2),
		\rq.kr(0.2)
	) * 10
}).play;
);
Ndef(\a, { SinOsc.ar(MouseX.kr(300, 1000, 1) * [1, 1.2], \phase.ar([0, 0]) * 0.2) });
Ndef(\b, { LFDNoise3.ar(MouseY.kr(3, 1000, 1) * [1, 1.2]) });
Ndef(\c, { LFTri.ar(MouseY.kr(3, 10, 1) * [1, 1.2]).max(0) });
Ndef(\sound) <<>.in1 Ndef(\a);
Ndef(\sound) <<>.in2 Ndef(\b);
Ndef(\sound) <<>.in2 Ndef(\c);
Ndef(\a) <<>.phase Ndef(\sound);
Ndef(\a) <<>.phase nil;	// unmap
Ndef.clear(3);		// clear all Ndefs
::
subsection::Recursion
Ndefs can be used recursively. A structure like the following works:
code::
Ndef(\sound, { SinOsc.ar([600, 635], Ndef.ar(\sound) * 10, LFNoise1.kr(2).max(0) * 0.2) });
Ndef(\sound).play;
::
This is because there is a feedback delay (the server's strong::block size::), usually 64 samples, so that calculation can reiterate over its own outputs. For single sample feedback, see:
code::
Document.open("Examples/demonstrations/single_sample_feedback.scd")
::
subsection::Using different servers
code::
// create a new server
a = Server(\foo, NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 57123)).boot.makeWindow;
Ndef(\sound, { SinOsc.ar([600, 635]) * SinOsc.kr(2).max(0) * 0.2 }).play; // play on default
Ndef(\sound -> \foo, { SinOsc.ar([700, 745]) * SinOsc.kr(2).max(0) * 0.2 }).play;// play on foo
// clear definitions
Ndef(\sound -> \foo).clear(3);
Ndef(\sound).clear(3);
::
subsection::GUI
code::
// create a window for a given Ndef
Ndef(\sound).edit
(
Ndef(\sound, { |freq = 440, rate = 2|
	SinOsc.ar(freq * [1, 1.625]) * SinOsc.kr(rate).max(0) * 0.2
}).play;
);
// set lags for controls:
Ndef(\sound).lag(\freq, 0.2, \rate, 0.5);
// create a mixer for all Ndefs:
NdefMixer(s);
::
subsection::Using Associations
For a complete list, see link::Classes/NodeProxy::, and link::Reference/NodeProxy_roles::
code::
// setsrc
(
Ndef(\x,
	\setsrc -> Pbind(\source,
		Pseq([
			{ LFTri.ar(280 * Line.kr(1.1, 0.4, rrand(2, 3)) + [0,1]) * 0.1 },
			{ Pulse.ar(40 + [0,1]) * 0.1 },
			{ LFTri.ar(LFTri.kr(1).round(1.0.rand) + 1 * 180 + [0,1], 0.04) * 0.3 },
