Python for / through Music Production ?

[Marc]

Hi everyone,  

This is my first post here, therefore, first and foremost:
A big, BIG "thank you" to Stray for his incredible work ! :-) 

My question:
I have been on the edge on diving to learn coding for a while.  
Actually, I did a few times for short bouts but always ended up stopping, feeling that I was kind of "distracting" myself from all the other things I have & want to do.

But now that I've heard that knowing Python could allow to do all kind of crazy stuffs on Ableton, Clyphx etc... I am contemplating the idea again.  

If any of you knows of ressources about learning python for & through music production, please let me know  ;-) 

Many thanks in advance, 

Best wishes to all of you from Mauritius Island !  
Be well ! Be safe
Marc

Hi everyone,  

So far I have found I have found EARSKETCH:

"EarSketch is a free educational programming environment. Its core purpose is to teach coding in two widely used languages, Python and JavaScript, through music composing and remixing"

Welcome to the forum and my apologies for the delay. Great find on EARSKETCH! That looks like a very cool way of getting your feet wet. I don't have any specific resources to recommend but, since Python is so widely used, answers can be found relatively easily via Google. Look specifically for posts on StackOverflow, which is one of the best forums around for programming-related questions IMO.
