Ubuntu Studio’s audio package selections now include Sonic Pi, SuperCollider, and the SuperCollider 3 plugin suite, giving you a complete live-coding and algorithmic-composition toolkit alongside Ardour, Carla, and the rest of the audio stack. Also new is JNoise, a simple white/pink noise generator included purely for its utility, handy for testing audio setups and room or speaker checks.

While she currently uses Strudel, a browser-based live-coding environment, similar results can be obtained with Sonic Pi: write a few lines, hear them loop instantly, and keep reshaping the music as it plays. Sonic Pi runs natively on your desktop and is built on top of SuperCollider’s synthesis engine, so you can start with simple loops and samples and grow into deeper sound design.
