Nice, the AI enabled Cambrian explosion of software is happening. Any idea can be built and validated in a few hours or days.

I've built something similar, but focused on guitar backing tracks. It's a TUI built using go, with midi output. Backing-tracks: https://github.com/ako/backing-tracks



Validated? TUI-based sequencers have been around since the 80s.

It's nice that someone can vibecode what used to take probably a manyear of work though.


Not the generic concept of TUI sequencers (i know, have used sequencers on c64), but any weird slightly different idea.

In my case i wanted flexible way to display lyrics, chords, strumming, metronome, fingerpicking, scales, chord shapes, etc, with an easy way for LLMs to define the backing-track, so a backing track DSL.

I think we'll see a lot of these very specialized software popping up, instead of generic solutions that contain everything and the kitchen-sink, where you don't use 90% of the functionality.


Very cool, thank you for creating and sharing. Literally yesterday YouTube searched (for the first time in a long time) for "D blues backing for Harmonica". I am interested now in exploring LLM paths for that.

You did a great job on the visualizations!!

I couldn't get sound to work on OSX yet, but will keep trying. We uke here, so will make an issue for that ;)

I work on NTCharts and also just yesterday had an LLM fix a visual bug using world understanding, one that I had thought about multiple times prior. In the end, the solution was obvious once revealed and I had overthought the problem.

Video in OP Miditui project is amazing, I missed it on first skim.


Thanks, everything was vibe coded, so visualizations thanks to vibe coding. I'm prompting like key user/product manager/architect, so expressing user needs, and ensuring the overall architecture seems reasonable.

For uke, would you expect same functionality but with 4 strings?

Let's not oversell it to that degree, please.

The amount of ideas that can be built and validated within a few hours or days went way way way up, but is still very very far away from "any". Nor will it ever get there unless we get actual AGI with "free" compute.
