Hey! So I wanna get into tidal and give it a try so I looked into the install windows tutorial on https://tidalcycles.org/index.php/Windows_installation
And so far it looks very noob friendly, all instructions were clear except for the whole sc3 thing.
Installed Haskel, then atom the supercolider then git, then I skipped the optional prerequisite (SC3 plugins) because it said you can return to it later.... So i installed tidal and superdirt just fine and tested out d1 $ s "bd"
and it worked! I can hear a drum every beat.
Now I saw on one tutorial that for some synths you need the SC3 plugins, according to https://tidalcycles.org/index.php/Tutorial#Synths I can run d2 $ midinote "60 62*2" # s "supersaw"
only if I have the SC3 plugins installed (evaluating them so far does nothing)
So I came back to the install tutorial and downloaded the SC3 plugin, in it the readme file told me to place it in a folder called extensions, created my own extensions folder and now when i run SuperDirt.start
I get this on the supercolider terminal:
SuperDirt: listening to Tidal on port 57120

I'm guessing those synths are from the SC3 plugin because that didn't happened until I attempted to install SC3.
I have no experience with super collider so I'm pretty much lost over here. How can I go about installing SC3 the right way?
Thanks in advance!
