Computer Sound and Music (CSAM) Project by:

Nikola Stanojkovski, Rade Bikovski, Leon Spremo, Jovana Chaloska, Andrej Slavejkov, Borjan Gagovski & Marko Petrushev

A music project intended to create a whole 'synthwave' song only with generated sounds and synths, as well as sampled processed recordings. The sounds are generated, sampled and processed with the help of SuperCollider as a main environment and programming language. The sounds are arranged and recorded with DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) such as Ableton and Cubase.

Form: Intro + Verse + Prechorus 1 + Pause + Chorus + Prechorus 2 + Pause + Chorus + Outro

2. Enter the Mix folder, and then create a Stems folder inside it.
3. Download all the audio .wav files from the following link.
4. Move all of the audio .wav files you downloaded to the Stems folder. 
5. Use SuperCollider to open the mix_master.scd file, which is located inside the Mix folder. 
6. Go to the toolbar and select Edit -> Replace, or simply press Ctrl + R to open the Replace window. 
7. Replace all <LOCAL_REPOSITORY_PATH> string instances with the local path to the repository where the project was previously cloned.
