# tek
|
|
|
|
Tek is a MIDI sequencer, sampler, and plugin host for the Linux terminal.
|
|
|
|
See `demos/project.edn` for the initial contents of the session.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
* Linux
|
|
* Rust toolchain
|
|
* JACK or Pipewire
|
|
|
|
### Recommended
|
|
|
|
* MIDI controller
|
|
* Samples at ~/Lab/Music/pak
|
|
* Odin2 LV2 ~/.lv2/Odin2.lv2
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Tek is inspired by "clip launching" workflows as exemplified by Ableton Live, Bitwig Studio,
|
|
Ardour, and probably others. The main view consists of three sections:
|
|
|
|
* The **arranger view** corresponds to Ableton's Session and Arrangement views.
|
|
It allows you to put together a musical composition as a sequence of **phrases**,
|
|
playing simultaneously across multiple **tracks**.
|
|
* The **sequencer view** allows you to edit phrases, which consist of MIDI events.
|
|
* The **chain view** allows you to add **devices** to each track. Devices determine
|
|
how a given phrase will sound. Currently, there are two devices implemented:
|
|
**sampler** and **plugin**.
|

|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> Use `Tab` to switch focus between views. Use `Enter` to exclusively focus the highlighted view,
|
|
> and `Esc` to unfocus it. When a view is focused, use the `Arrow Keys` and `Enter` to navigate.
|
|
> Use `;` (semicolon) to open the command palette, which will list the remaining keybindings.
