MIDI Master Clock: Simple MIDI Song and Control Change Manager MIDI Master Clock is a lightweight, command-line utility for effortless MIDI device control and synchronization. It lets you define songs or cues in a simple text file, each with its own BPM and custom MIDI Control Change (CC) messages. What It Does: Reads Song Data: Configure song titles, BPM, and MIDI CCs (e.g., CC_ch0 10) in an easy-to-read data.txt file. Interactive Control: Select songs from a list, advance through your set, or quit, all from the command line. Automated MIDI Commands: When you select a song, MIDI Master Clock automatically sends: - All specified MIDI Control Changes (CCs), ideal for triggering effects or states. - MIDI Sync Commands (Stop, Song Position Pointer (0), Start) to prepare your devices. - Accurate MIDI Clock signals based on the song's BPM, keeping your gear perfectly in sync.

vahatraker is a MIDI sequencing companion for GNU/Linux audio setups. Adhering to Unix philosophy, driving MIDI is the one thing it tries to do well, adhering to other doctrines - enabling expression, with added value of: - live editing - fast workflow - intuitive midi-in - unheard of time signatures - scenes a'la 'ton - fractal turtles - fits on a floppy - doesn't make sound Frankly speaking, vht was envisaged as a re-creation of seq24 in tracker form for author's "studio needs" and offers similar functionality (and limitations). It relies 100% on JACK audio connection kit for input/output/synch and uses jack_capture for rendering. The GUI has similar dependencies as gnome-calculator and tracker paradigm was chosen to allow for rhythmic gymnastics otherwise hard to convey. Low level stuff was done in C and wrapped in Python. Human interfacing part of contraption employs GTK through gobject introspection and was also contrived in the language we shall no longer spam abo

Analyzer for Files (AoF) is a tool to look into file contents, analyze the structure with installed plug-ins, and show the results with several split windows including converted data and a tree if successful. It was designed as a workbench with a core and plug-in extensions. It can handle the normal plain-text file and data, complex binaries supported with the corresponding plug-ins. What's more, the developers can deploy and release their own plug-ins according to the plug-in developing standard. The development site is https://bitbucket.org/cadappl/anafile.
