## about

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

- fractal turtles

- fits on a floppy

- doesn't make a 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 about.

## dependencies for pip build
