I built a TUI sampler which cherry-picks my favourite features from modern & vintage hardware samplers, DAWs, plugins, outboard FX gear, and DJ equipment.

If you know what an AKAI MPC Live, MPC 3000, SP404, SP1200, BOSS RC-202, Alesis 3630, Serato Sample, S950 filters, and stem separation does, then you'll love seeing these "greatest hits" up in a terminal interface.

Last year while on vacation in Costa Rica, I started scratching my own itch for locating and organizing samples, which quickly evolved into adding more and more features while keeping it tactile and immediate. It was too fun to stop so I kept going. After a few days I was happily making beats in it, and since then it's only gotten better.

It's live and totally free to use, and works in macos & Linux (Windows soon). I'm about to launch v1.0 now, just working with folks in the community to round out the Factory Kits a little more for users new to beatmaking.

Turns out, making beats with no mouse and a terminal interface strikes the perfect balance of hardware feel and software power, and I'm loving the result. Been sharing it with folks in my beatmaking sphere and have plans to continue expanding its reach through more collaborations, contests, and in-person events.

Hope it brings you as much joy as it does to me :)

How do you differentiate from BuildJet, which takes a similar approach?

Peggy is the social marketplace that allows you to discover, buy, and sell art. We partner with art galleries and artists to onboard their artworks, register a secure digital fingerprint for each artwork, and connect them to our vibrant collector community. Our art fingerprinting tech also enables the ability for collector-to-collector resale, which creates liquidity that was previously only accessible to billionaires selling Blue Chip art via auction houses. Best of all, we do right by our emerging, contemporary, and living artists by paying 5% artist royalties on each resale transaction.

We're hiring a Principal Mobile Developer for our iOS and Android (flutter/dart) app. You will be partnering with our design, backend, and technical leadership teams as we drive towards our exciting alpha release.

Peggy partners with galleries and artists to make living with and investing in art accessible to all. Finally you can buy incredible art at a price you can afford, and can later sell to fellow collectors if your tastes change or you seek to rebalance your art investments. Core to our values, Peggy does good by the artists themselves, who can finally earn artist royalties for all future secondary sales as well - something they miss out on today. This is all made possible using sophisticated and proprietary AI and ML which keeps buyers and sellers protected without the need for the antiquated and opaque Auction House model.

As a key member of the back end team, you will be responsible for providing an elegant and well-documented GraphQL API as an entry-point into Peggy’s content, data, and business logic, which is crafted in Ruby, Rails and Postgres. You will be supported by a DevOps infrastructure, which leverages AWS, Terraform, CI/CD, CloudWatch, Auth0, Sentry, and other developer-friendly tools and systems.

If anybody's curious to spin up a GPU instance and dabble with this, this greatly facilitates downloading, compiling, and installing the CUDA drivers, and setting up the LTC miners. Amazon has a $100 credit available too, if the current spot instance prices are prohibitive.

This project was inspired by Bob Feldbauer's post on Profitable LiteCoin Mining on EC2, and a desire to practice my Ansible chops.

As of right now, the spot instance price is approx $0.30/hr, so it's no longer immediately profitable, so I wouldn't recommend this if you're looking to flip a quick buck (before yesterday would have been a different story). Nevertheless, a fun weekend hack project if anyone's curious to give it a try!

The logo is the wheel on a cassette, which is a fun throwback to the tape days, inspired by TAR -> Tape ARchiver.
