A barely usable audio tracker. Maybe someone is interested

Hi all,
I wrote a very basic audio tracker in Erlang. Probably full of bugs.

It’s 4 hard panned audio channels (a-la Commodore Amiga).

It can play mono 16bit wav audio, for now.

I believe it works only on Linux as the c part links Alsa.

The UI uses a text file with Erlang terms, nothing fancier than that.

Maybe someone is interested in adding more feature and make it more
robust, here’s the source code: ~carloratm/emt - EMT - Erlang Music Tracker - sourcehut git

I also made a video in broken English demonstrating how that works.

Please be aware the audio!!! When I talk it’s quiet, when it plays audio it’s
LOUD and my voice disappear :person_facepalming:

I am quite stuck now and I hope someone can help me adding more features.

Cheers!

This project sounds super cool! I’d love to learn more about it.

Unfortunately your video doesn’t play for me on macOS with either Firefox or Safari.

Ah! Sorry about that.

I uploaded the video to an instance of peertube, it should work:

Please be aware the voice is loooow and the music LOUD.

Very nice! Reminds me on Kraftwerk.

What about a presentation at the next meetup?

Kr,d

Yeah, maybe. If there will be one.

Very cool! :slight_smile:

So I started writing a GUI for EMT. Very much work in progress.

I made a video, this time the audio is fine, but the video is incredibly poor in quality :person_facepalming:

I really can’t make it right. Maybe the third time is the lucky one :wink:

Cheers!
