tida1vm

A complete Tidal musical live coding and audio streaming environment inside Docker

Getting started

Branches for each TidalCycles version

Currently, there's a branch for:

TidalCycles 0.6 + MIDI

TidalCycles 0.7 + MIDI

TidalCycles 0.7 + Dirt

TidalCycles 0.8 + MIDI

TidalCycles 0.8 + MIDI (Volca Beats + Volca Bass only)

TidalCycles 0.8 + MIDI + EspGrid

TidalCycles 0.8 + SuperDirt

TidalCycles 0.9 + SuperDirt

TidalCycles 1.0

TidalCycles 1.6.1

All of them are equally stable (ie: run at your own risk :neckbeard:)

So, let's say, you want to run the 0.9 version, simply:

$ git clone https://github.com/lvm/tida1vm
$ cd tida1vm
$ git checkout 0.9
$ docker build -t tida1vm-0.9 .
$ docker run -ti --rm --net=host --name tida1vm lvm23/tida1vm:0.9

or just:

$ docker pull lvm23/tida1vm:0.9
$ docker run -ti --rm --net=host --name tida1vm lvm23/tida1vm:0.9

MIDI Ports

See the README for each branch.

Custom tidal-midi Synths

For 0.6, there's a forked version of tidal-midi here, removing most of the synths (which I don't have) and added GM1Drums.hs configured after GM1 standards for percussion in GM soundfonts. Uses gdrum (works with drum too, but won't recognize all GM1 values).
For 0.7, since it has MIDI integrated, I created a repo for FluidSynth here with two exposed modules: GMDrums.hs and GMInst.hs, one for Drums and other for the rest of the instruments.
For 0.8, it should be integrated within tidal-midi.

midithru-connect

There's a small script in the helper directory called midithru-connect which connects clients to "Midi Through".

usage: midithru-connect [-h] [-v] [-a] [-c CONNECT] [-d DISCONNECT]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --version         shows the current version
  -a, --all             auto connects all clients available
  -c CONNECT, --connect CONNECT
                        connects a client to midi through
  -d DISCONNECT, --disconnect DISCONNECT
                        disconnects a client off midi through

What's the difference with Tidebox?

This container has configurations which are probably useful to me only, such as:
