Ideas for Ardour Lua Scripts

ArdourLuaIdeas.md

MIDI Processors

• Docs: https://manual.ardour.org/lua-scripting/#DSP%20Scripts
• API: https://manual.ardour.org/lua-scripting/class_reference/#ARDOUR:MidiBuffer
• dsp_run_map seems to be the more performant API metod

MIDI Note Repeat / Delay

• Existing scripts to check:
  • https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/blob/master/share/scripts/midimon.lua
  • https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/blob/master/share/scripts/_midigenerator.lua
  • https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/blob/master/share/scripts/_midigenerator2.lua

MIDI Note Randomizer

• Input Params: target range of notes
• Input data: DSP MIDI data (i.e. Lua DSP Processor)
• Output data: DSP MIDI data with notes mapped randomly to target range
• Might be based on: https://github.com/Ardour/ardour/blob/master/share/scripts/midi_remap.lua
