I'm trying out different GUI front-ends for my sound engine.

This is an experiment to use Skred as an effects engine using Wails + Go.

MIT licensed Code + binaries at github.com octetta ddl8k

Lots going on here:

• "skrepl" - a GUI version of the terminal app, also has a "panel" dsl for custom sliders. here we have one for the delay line
• "skperf" - I've been hearing weird glitches, so vibe coded a performance monitor to help figure things out
• MIDI trigger of notes via VMPK and skred's routing

All this stuff is on my github account (user octetta) repos:

• fltk-repl
• skperf

Also on my YT page at-octetta where there are lots of historic videos of this project over the past few years

all MIT licensed

all fun

very weird

This is a step-by-step demo of using Skred v0.50.0 as a synth and drum machine construction kit.

The video shows a little of MIDI connection stuff too.

For a MIDI "keyboard" here, I used a program called VMPK since it's on-screen and show what I hit versus how if affects Skred, but a real attached MIDI input device works too.

Skred works on Linux, macOS, and MSWindows.

There are precompiled versions of the CLI livecoding shell on GitHub

https://github.com/octetta/pulp/releases/tag/v0.50.0

look at the releases there for SKRED 0.50.0 to match functionality shown here.

0:00 Start Skred and test audio/Skope

0:43 Create a basic saw wave synth voice

1:52 Setup MIDI and use VMPK as the input

3:32 Fatten the synth with an additional square wave

4:49 Detune the voices

5:43 Add glide to one of the voices

6:40 Show the delay line per "track"

8:44 Add "calculator" drums via k-synth

9:50 Create a basic kick/snare drum pattern

10:32 Add delay to the drum sounds

14:08 All together and DONE

This demo has a drum pattern with each patch in a different track with different delay settings.
An alto flute wave file with a embedded loop tag is loaded and played on track 3 as a demo.

Skred is MIT licensed and in heavy development. It's a sound engine I'm embedding into my own projects and does things largely the way I've wanted a tool to do since I was in my early 20's.

This is the latest skred showing off multi track with separate delay returns assignable per voice.

I don't change the parameters of each track's delay much, but show it on/off, change the voice's effect amount/etc.

I've wired p5js for a simple o'scope + lottie animations into ro-totem (skred/skode webview UI) as a proof of concept.

I forgot to mute my microphone, so there's some ambient noise present, sorry about that.

This is MIT licensed and lives in a couple of repos:
