SignalsAndSorcery

Throughout my software career, I've fantasized about taking an entire year off to try and build something incredible. In 2022 I did just that. Every day I woke up, answered to no one & coded 10-14hrs a day, 7 days a week. The goal was to prototype a possible future of #music #production : A native #daw #plugin that injects royalty-free, #procedural & AI-generated content directly into a DAW.

The first ver of the Signals & Sorcery plugin is available as a free download!

@SignalsAndSorcery Wow, this seems super cool! I'm definitely gonna be making a beat with this once I'm home :)
Show threadSignalsAndSorceryNov 26, 2022
@riotreed please do! let me know if you encounter bugs. All the loops are 100% royalty free. The library will expand massively over the next couple months!

@SignalsAndSorcery sorry, I hadn't realised it was macOS only! I'll keep an eye out for the windows release if that something you're planning down the line, though.

@riotreed a few people gave told me they are on #windows now. I'll dust off the old Dell XPS and re-compile it this weekend :)

Ahh, I couldn't download (clicked the link, nothing). And when I tried to register, got 'CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.'

@Jyoti yikes! The link in the post or on the Signals And Sorcery site?

@SignalsAndSorcery I followed the post to the YT to the site!

Have you got too many people trying to dl? 🙂

@Jyoti investigating, thx

@Jyoti ok, I see, it looks like something is messed up with the login, thx
Show threadSignalsAndSorceryNov 26, 2022
@Jyoti nice catch! Looks when I upgraded Django from v3 to v4 I need to change a few more things

@SignalsAndSorcery No worries, dude! 🙂

@SignalsAndSorcery massive respect for your efforts. I'll be happy to give it a try.

@triumcirculorum @SignalsAndSorcery putting this in my queue to check out soon. Congratulations!!

@SignalsAndSorcery Just curious where can you get it?

Mac only ATM but I'll try and cut a windows build on Sunday

Signals And Sorcery

Signals And Sorcery is loop library created with procedural and diffusion AI audio techniques. Loops and samples are royalty free, enjoy!

@SignalsAndSorcery Cool.

@SignalsAndSorcery Just waiting on the windows build. My mac is owned by my employer and company policy means it would be a bloody nightmare to get approval to give this a whirl.

@SignalsAndSorcery So cool!
Show threadCrows LabyrinthNov 26, 2022
@SignalsAndSorcery That is impressive stuff!

@SignalsAndSorcery
It looks very promising. Are you planning to release other plugin formats like LV2 or CLAP?
Show threadSignalsAndSorceryNov 26, 2022
@this CLAP looks super cool! So hopefully? But right now I believe my time is best spent refining the experience. There are still key features missing. Every platform I support means more time I spend tinkering with compatibility and less making the thing better.
Show threadThe1goit Nov 26, 2022
@SignalsAndSorcery hmmmmm, might consider taking a look at it. Still sounds better than what Unison Audio's stuff makes.
Show threadGroophz | NationDec 17, 2022
@SignalsAndSorcery very nice idea. Will there be an interface in the future that allows to influence the loop generation? What do you think about integrating your own loops (eg using Loopcloud as source)?
