MIDI performance via live edited Perl scripts

LiveSet

MIDI performance via live edited Perl scripts.

This is essentially the same as live-patching a huge Eurorack system, except that all the $$$ hardware is replaced by Perl scripts ;-)

Not much documentation here, everything is still being written.

Needed packages

• IO::Select
• IPC::Open2
• Linux::Inotify2
• MIDI::ALSA
• Moo
• namespace::clean
• Scalar::Util

Minimal working example

1. Start the player using the provided examples:

cd examples
perl -I../ liveset-example.pl

2. While the demo is playing, edit global.pl, bass.pl or drum.pl with a text editor. The files will reload after saving and you will hear the changes immediately.
