Re-distribute tidalcycles/Dirt-Samples

lucretiomsp · 29 December 2024 17:38

hello everyone and merry Christmas holidays.
I would like to include all(or part) and maybe with some addition the Dirt-Samples in my Phausto repository, as I am planning to use Phausto as the audio engine for Coypu (the Pharo live coding package).
Pharo, Phausto, Coypu are free and open-source and the samples will be properly credited (and I will be happy to contribute with sounds from my analog drum machines too)
thanks!

Hi,
The dirt-samples as I understand are potentially of somewhat unknown/dubious origin - there was a project started to rectify this:

It's mainly a SuperCollider quark with a bunch of linked github repos:

github.com

tidalcycles/Clean-Samples/blob/main/Clean-Samples.quark

(
	\name: 			"Clean-Samples",
	\summary:		"A meta-quark for a clean set of 'default' sound samples for use with SuperDirt and friends, intended to replace Dirt-Samples.",
	\author: 		"Julian Rohrhuber, Alex McLean et al",
	\since: 		"2021",
	\dependencies:  ["https://github.com/cleary/samples-cello-bowed",

Yes the provenance of the contents of Dirt-Samples is largely unknown, it would be great to someday finish coming up with a properly sourced default sample pack.
