Song repo #44

Closed ryanramage closed 5 years ago

ryanramage commented 5 years ago

It would be amazing to have a (folder, wiki, repo) of songs that people have created and would be willing to donate. I've seen some amazing ones on twitter, and it would be nice to have the src to play around with.

A lot of times when I am writing code for projects I need some quick .orca files that produce something nice. I really appreciate the popcorn.orca file, but grow weary of it 😢

ryanramage commented 5 years ago

I guess I would suggest separating orca files into maybe 3 categories

Test - used for performance testing or operator testing
Examples - used for tutorials or teaching operators
'Songs'. Something more full - maybe not a song in the traditional sense, but can load and go?

neauoire commented 5 years ago

I would do examples/projects for application specific/tutorials resources, and examples/sequencers for various general purpose sequencers? What do you think?

Hey, just noticed this discussion, what do you think of patchstorage.com as an option? I'm not sure how you go about adding a new platform, though i suppose someone in the discord would know.

I've brought patchstorage.com up also to neauoire and think it would be the best place for Orca patches. There's an email here (hello@patchstorage.com) for contact to ask if Orca can be added as a platform: https://patchstorage.com/privacy-policy/

Go on ahead with this if you need.

Should probably take a vote in chat or something. This was recently brought up and it seemed like most wanted to create a central GitHub spot because most pull things/update through command line.

New orca user here with opinions:

Many music people wont want to deal with using github to grab a patch or two.
The idea being to open access up to Everyone - not just people in the chatroom or those using git, etc.
I'd like an easy way to scan through user patches with a nice description of what it does
patchstorage is a very good solution for this.
patches could be any combination of songs/examples/tests/wip/etc.

As an example, I'm active with the monome/norns community and the newb-ness with using github for sharing is a HUGE hurdle for many users.

So here's a +1 for patchstorage

I don't want to manage this, if someone can take the reigns on this one, you've got my full support and I'll make sure this is visible and accessible. :)

Thanks to @okyeron, Orca is now whitelisted on patchstorage, you can upload them here.
