**Sardine** is a versatile and hacker-friendly Python library designed for musical improvisation, algorithmic composition, and beyond.
It transforms your standard **Python** interpreter into a powerful music instrument, enabling you to create and map melodic and rhythmic
patterns to any electronic instrument (**MIDI**, **OSC**, and **SuperCollider**).
With **Sardine**, you can:

- **Unleash your musical creativity on stage, in the studio, or for personal enjoyment**
- Seamlessly communicate with any MIDI/OSC device and the **SuperCollider** audio engine using **Sardine**.
- Utilize bindings for **SuperDirt**, a widely recognized synthesis engine embraced by live coders globally.

- **Empower your Python code with time-aware capabilities**
- Employ temporal recursion to make any Python code time and tempo aware.
- Accurately launch synchronous or asynchronous functions with time-specific results.
- Customize your own **Senders** or **Receivers** to pattern any desired elements!

- **Develop intricate audio/visual installations with MIDI and OSC *I/O***
- Assign **callbacks** to any OSC event, transforming **Sardine** into a sophisticated reactive toolbox.
- Monitor changing values and incorporate them into your musical patterns or code.

- **Synchronize with other computers and musical instruments**
- Synchronise your hardware with **MIDI Clocks**.
- Synchronize effortlessly with other tools or players using the **Link Protocol**.
