Hello, I hope you’re all well,
Recently, VCV Rack 2 was released. I paid for the Pro version, which includes VST instrument and audio fx plugins. The ability to build my own instruments is a bit of a conceptual game-changer for my music. It’s gotten me thinking: what if Sonic-Pi was also offered as VST plugins, perhaps to paying users?
Currently, the use I personally would have for a Sonic-Pi plugin is for building my own MIDI sequencers. My previous projects have explored algorithmic polyphonic textures. For that reason, I would love and happily pay for a Sonic-Pi MIDI fx plugin.
If it would make development, QA, and maintenance any easier, I believe that a MIDI fx plugin would only have to retain parts of the MIDI library. The symbolic logic is enough to give new meaning to “functional harmony”.
Take care,
Daniel
