Hope that helps and feel free to get in contact [email protected] or create an issue if I can help to make anything clearer
(1) For open source, out early is better than out later. v0 (or v1 or where ever you start numbering) shouldn't be perfect. If it's perfect, you're sharing too late.
(2) All this is volunteer work and a gift to the community. It's a fallacy to think the person who writes the code is also responsible for doing everything else. Some people code well. Others write well. Others do both well. That's okay.
(3) My comment was on the dexed ecosystem; not just on this piece
(4) All that said, what would be awesome is if
- There were sample audio files we could listen to. Ideally, these would be for the generated patches, but even if there was just a half-dozen example WAV or MP3 files.
- If the README file on github had a link to the web page, or at the very least, if the current text (thisdx7cartdoesnotexit.com) said "exist" at the end instead of "exit"
By far the best manual and sound design "how-to" for the DX7, or for FM synthesis in general.
(1) This looks interesting. I had no idea any of this existed.
(2) For the level of awesome, this is the worst-documented ecosystem I've stepped into in a long while. I hope some random user volunteers to make really nice documentation at some point. This could go from awesome to a lot awesomer.
I looked for MIDI synthesizer a while back, and never ran into dexed. I suspect I'll have a lot of fun with this at some point.
