Hi,

I am completely new to Control and having a wonderful time learning about it.
I would like to build an interface similar to the landscape mixer example but with an additional page
that consists of the 6 most recently altered channels.

The easiest way for me to prototype this would be using SuperCollider to incrementally alter that additional page.
But it would probably be better in javascript. Right now I just want to find out where there is documentation to tell
me if I can incrementally alter an interface remotely, how multi-paged interfaces are managed, etc.

Hi Ron,

Sorry it's taken me a while to respond to this... I've been traveling. Here's the documentation for dynamic interface creation:

There's a lot more features along these lines coming in v2, but it seems that version is further off than I thought. If there's a specific thing you need to do that's not listed, let me know and maybe I can help figure out a hack for it, since most of the program can be manipulated via javascript over OSC.

I would take a look at the multipage template to get an idea how that works:

Please let me know if I can help! On a side note, if you're interested in JavaScript at all and have a chance to check out another project, I have a javascript live-coding environment I started about a month and a half ago:

It's still a pretty new project but I'd be interested in any feedback. When I presented it a composition forum recently, Curtis Roads (I'm a grad student at UCSB) regaled us with a story of your original STEIM live coding session. He made it sound pretty epic :)
