Bol Processor BP3

BP3 is the multi-platform ver­sion of the Bol Processor that has been in devel­op­ment since 2020. It con­sists of two modules:

• A con­sole writ­ten in C lan­guage for cross-platform com­pi­la­tion, con­tain­ing the core algo­rithms of the Bol Processor
• An inter­face that allows non-technical users to edit or cre­ate spe­cif­ic mate­r­i­al (gram­mars, sound-objects, Csound instru­ments) and inter­act with the con­sole to pro­duce Bol Processor scores, MIDI files, Csound scores and real-time MIDI output/input.

Currently, the inter­face has been built in the HTML5/JavaScript/PHP envi­ron­ment which makes it pos­si­ble to work with the Bol Processor on any web brows­er. The set­up works in dif­fer­ent envi­ron­ments (MacOS X, Windows, Linux, etc.) but it requires the instal­la­tion of a local Apache/PHP serv­er.

Follow the instruc­tions on the Bol Processor ‘BP3’ and its PHP inter­face page to install the lat­est version.

A stand­alone ver­sion com­piled from the PHP/JavaScript pack­age is about to be released.
