TC Tools.
A growing family of terminal-controlled instruments — drive a granular synth and a drum machine entirely from the command line, each with a live Textual TUI.
Who it's for
For musicians who live in the terminal and want instruments that speak the same language.
TCGS · available now
A terminal-controlled granular synthesizer — grain engine, 4-LFO modulation matrix, polyphonic voices, live Textual TUI with waveform + grain-field display.
TCDM · available now
A terminal-controlled drum machine — sample-accurate step transport, Elektron-style per-step param locks, an 8-slot pattern bank, and a full master FX chain.
TCWS · available now
A terminal-controlled wavetable synthesizer — a morphing wavetable engine where scanning position is the headline modulation target, with spectral morph mode, a 64-slot mod matrix, unison, and a live morphing-waveform TUI.
More on the way
FM and subtractive instruments in the same family are in progress — the collection grows.
One language
Every instrument is driven entirely from the command line, each with a live terminal interface. No mouse required.
