cd tek                             # enter directory

design goals

  * inspired by trackers and hardware sequencers, but with the
    critical feature that 90s samplers lack: able to resample, i.e.
    record while playing!

  * pop-up scratchpad for musical ideas. low resource consumption,
    can stay open in background. but flexible enough to allow
    expanding on compositions

  * human- and machine- readable project format simple representation
    for project data enable scripting and remapping.
