Basic MIDI Workflow

# 1. Enumerate connected MIDI devices
list_midi_devices()
# Returns device information for inputs and outputs

# 2. Record MIDI performance

# Captures live performance to timestamped MIDI file

# 3. AI-assisted content generation
midi_to_ai_seed("recording.mid", expansion_style="full_production")
# Analyzes MIDI and generates structured content for AI processing

# 4. Generate complete track with AI vocals
songgen_to_deck(lyrics, genre="Electronic", tempo=128, deck=1)
# Produces professional vocal and instrumental tracks

Workflows

AI-Powered Production

Autonomous Track Generation

User: "Create a complete electronic track about cyberpunk cities"

AI: "I'll orchestrate a full production pipeline for 'cyberpunk neon city' theme.

Starting autonomous workflow:
1. Analyzing theme and generating structured lyrics
2. Creating vocal performance with AI synthesis
3. Generating electronic backing tracks and stems
4. Mixing and mastering for professional sound
5. Loading final track to VirtualDJ deck

Progress: Lyrics generated → Vocals rendered → Stems produced → Mix complete → DJ integration finished

Track 'Neon Shadows' is ready on Deck 1. Would you like me to generate variations or start a new track?"

Conversational Production Guidance

User: "Help me make this mix more energetic"

AI: "I can analyze your current production and suggest improvements. Looking at the track structure...

Current analysis:
- BPM: 128, Energy level: Medium
- Frequency balance: Mids dominant, highs attenuated
- Dynamic range: Compressed, could use more punch

Suggestions:
1. Increase high-frequency EQ on percussion stems (+3dB at 8kHz)
2. Add sidechain compression on bass to create rhythmic pumping
3. Boost attack on kick drum samples for more impact
4. Layer in additional percussion elements for complexity

Would you like me to implement these changes automatically, or would you prefer to adjust specific elements?"

Large-Scale Production Orchestration

User: "I need a 12-track concept album about space exploration"

AI: "I'll orchestrate a complete album production using SEP-1577 sampling across all available tools.

Planning autonomous workflow:
- Album structure: 12 tracks with cohesive theme
- Parallel track generation using SongGeneration-MCP
- Consistent mastering across all tracks via Reaper-MCP
- Automated organization in Plex-MCP library
- Quality analysis and refinement iterations

Estimated completion: 45 minutes
Track list generated → Production pipeline started → Quality checks running

First track 'Launch Sequence' complete. Continuing with remaining tracks..."

Automated DJ Sets

ai_dj_set("progressive house summer", num_tracks=6)
# Generates themed track collection with harmonic mixing analysis

MIDI-to-Production Pipeline

# 1. Record MIDI performance
record_midi_performance(0, 30)

# 2. AI content analysis and generation
midi_to_ai_seed("recording.mid", "full_production")

# 3. Complete track production
songgen_to_deck(lyrics, genre="Electronic", tempo=128, deck=1)

Large-Scale Production

User: "Produce a full album about space exploration"

AI: "I'll manage the complete album production workflow using autonomous orchestration.

Album Concept: 'Cosmic Journey' - 10 tracks exploring space themes

Workflow initiated:
- Generating track concepts and lyrics for each song
- Parallel production using SongGeneration LeVo AI
- Consistent mastering and mixing across all tracks
- Automatic organization into album structure
- Quality analysis and refinement

Status: Track 1/10 'Stellar Winds' → Complete
        Track 2/10 'Zero Gravity' → Rendering vocals...

Album completion: ~30 minutes remaining
Would you like me to adjust the production style or add specific elements?"

Live Streaming

User: "Start a 2-hour ambient electronic stream on Twitch"

AI: "I'll set up autonomous live streaming with continuous AI-generated content.

Streaming Configuration:
- Theme: Ambient electronic atmospheres
- Duration: 2 hours (120 minutes)
- Platform: Twitch integration via OBS-MCP
- Content strategy: Progressive evolution with smooth transitions

Setup initiated:
- OBS streaming configuration established
- Initial track generation started (3 tracks pre-buffered)
- VirtualDJ automix sequence programmed
- Engagement monitoring activated

Stream Status: Pre-roll tracks loaded → Going live in 30 seconds
Content pipeline: Track generation every 12-15 minutes
Quality monitoring: Active with automatic adjustments

Stream is now live! I'll continue generating fresh content throughout."

Would you like me to generate variations or start mixing?"

Large-Scale Projects

User: "Make me a 12-track album about urban exploration"

AI: "Planning autonomous album production for 'Urban Exploration' concept.

Album structure:
- Track 1: Street Lights - Opening ambient
- Track 2: Concrete Dreams - Driving rhythm
- Track 3: Hidden Alleys - Atmospheric interlude
- ...continuing through 12 tracks

Starting parallel production pipeline using SEP-1577 sampling:
- SongGeneration-MCP: Vocal and instrumental generation
- Reaper-MCP: Mastering and final production
- Plex-MCP: Library organization

Progress: 3/12 tracks complete. Estimated completion: 42 minutes.

First tracks available in your Plex music library."

Conversational Assistance

User: "The mix needs more energy in the drop sections"

AI: "Analyzing your current production mix...

Current assessment:
- Energy profile: Moderate, could benefit from increased dynamics
- Frequency response: Mids-heavy, highs attenuated
- Rhythmic elements: Steady but lacking impact

Recommendations:
1. Apply upward compression to percussion bus (+4dB threshold, 3:1 ratio)
2. Add high-frequency boost to cymbals (2-3dB at 12kHz)
3. Implement sidechain ducking on pads during drops
4. Layer additional percussion hits for build-up tension

I can implement these changes automatically, or guide you through manual adjustments. Which approach would you prefer?"

This project adheres to SOTA 14.1 industrial standards for high-fidelity agentic orchestration:

• Python (Core): Ruff for linting and formatting. Zero-tolerance for print statements in core handlers (T201).
• Webapp (UI): Biome for sub-millisecond linting. Strict noConsoleLog enforcement.
• Protocol Compliance: Hardened stdout/stderr isolation to ensure crash-resistant JSON-RPC communication.
• Automation: Justfile recipes for all fleet operations (just lint, just fix, just dev).
• Security: Automated audits via bandit and safety.
