The Kyma Language for Sound Design, Version 4.5

Playing a Lifted Sound
Environments
When you play a lifted Sound, Kyma prompts you to supply a value for each of the variable parameters.
Before you can hear the lifted Sound, a specific value must be assigned to each variable.
If the requested value is a number, string, symbol, or array, enter the value and click Value or press Enter.
If the requested value is a Sound, click the button labeled Default Sound.
If the requested value is a Sound collection, click the button labeled Default Collection. Use Set default
Sound and Set default collection from the Action menu to set the selected Sound or collection of Sounds
to be the defaults used by these dialogs. The default Sound should always be a single Sound. The default
Sound collection can be a set of one or more Sounds or collections.
In the Sound file window, you will be asked to supply values for the variables each time you play a lifted
Sound. In the Sound editor, you only have to supply values for the variables once. The Sound editor remembers
the associations of variables to values in what is called the environment. To see the state of the
current environment, select Environment from the Info menu.
If you want to change the values associated with the variables, select Reset environment from the Info
menu. The next time you play the Sound, Kyma will ask you to supply values for the variables again.
