So, eventually I had that director sitting next to me yesterday in my little studio room and he liked everything I had done.

The fake knocking on a bunker door with this triggered Sitala drum sampler plugin that uses sounds from 3 different doors and a screw clamp. Plus real air raid shelter IR reverb. The opening and closing of that door including other samples from the 3 doors and the screw clamp, plus a door squeak I downloaded from Freesound (with license CC0)…

… enabled by Robin's new MIDI cluster plugin and my LUA attempts for spacing out regions.

… and having a little extra fun, we did a fake radio news broadcast, recorded directly via a 60ties Beyer (now Beyerdynamic) mic to a 70ties Uher 4000 Report IC tape machine with autogain… and recording into #MixBus from the speaker of that tape machine, it again sounded too real and too well… too less fake mini radio, but FabFilter ProQ3 was there to help.

So, using #ChatGPT to vibe code #LUA for #Ardour… what shall I say? Instant karma's gonna get you!

AI karma got me right away, and it hit hard.

Such a PITA. This LLM thing doesn't know the API and it doesn't even notice contradicting itsself.

Still, with a lot of trial and error, I got code drafted that does what I need:

Spacing out regions by a given number of seconds (floating point numbers allowed).

Works with one exception: I wasn't able to properly commit the action to the undo history.

(EDIT: This got solved by doing what ChatGPT should have done properly, looking at other people's code on GitHub.)

So, here it is, this is… well I'm very uncertain about this, but perhaps one day it will actually be proper code that can help other people, too:

(I added TODO comments where there's issues.)

Speaking of that, it's still free download (might have to initiate that from the album page instead of song)

Features some 45 minutes of mixed down road ambience, birdsong, ambient guitar, a few "heavier" parts (metal-ish), overall just another background vibe like i tend to do

Honestly super enjoying being able to upload music I've made here. Very blessed function.

This is from some month ago or so, was part of the latest bc release "hope's flight" but early layer.
