Re: [LAU] A text-only environment for composing electronic music?

Hi. I am looking for a programmable (text mode) seuqnecer solution. I know that Linux has a few small languages for creating MIDI files, like MMA. Even LilyPond can be tricked into being a MIDI file generating language. However, none of the solutions I have seen so far could be easily integrated as the center/hub of a full composition. I am imagining a workflow where I do not need to click my way through a sequencer, setting up all the content and connections, but rather define a composition in terms of source code. For this to be useful, it should include conventional sample playback, as well as real time MIDI event generation. I am not sure if we have a sufficiently remote-controllable sampler without GUI requirements, but if we do, I might be able to get away by using that via OSC or MIDI, instead of re-inventing the sampler wheel.
