<h2>About</h2>
<p>Cagire is a step sequencer where each step contains a Forth script instead of typical note data. When the sequencer reaches a step, it runs the associated script. Scripts can produce sound, trigger samples, apply effects, or do nothing at all. You are free to define what your scripts will do. Cagire includes a built-in audio engine called <a href="https://doux.livecoding.fr">Doux</a>. No external software is needed to make sound. It comes with oscillators, sample players, filters, reverb, delay, distortion, and more.</p>
<h2>Code Examples</h2>
<br>
<p>A minimal script that plays a middle C note using a sine wave:</p>
<pre>c4 note sine sound .</pre>
<br>
<p>And now let's make it polyphonic and add different parameters per voice:</p>
<pre>c4 min7 note
sine sound
0.1 chorus
500 1000 1500 lpf
.</pre>
<br>
<p>Sawtooth wave with lowpass filter, chorus and reverb:</p>
<pre>saw sound 1200 lpf 0.2 chorus 0.8 verb .</pre>
<br>
<p>Pitched-down kick drum sample with distortion:</p>
<pre>kkick sound 1.5 distort 0.8 speed .</pre>
<br>
<h2>Features</h2>
<ul>
<li>Robust synthesis engine: synthesizers, sampling, effects, live input, and more to discover.</li>
<li>Ableton Link: jam with your friends or include other software / hardware to your setup.</li>
<li>32 banks × 32 patterns × 128 steps per project: (~131.000 scripts per project).</li>
<li>Forth: objectively the coolest / minimal / hackable language to make music with!</li>
<li>Embedded dictionary and documentation!</li>
</ul>
<h2>Live Coding</h2>
<p>Live coding is a technique where a programmer writes code in real-time, often in front of an audience. It can be used to create music, visual art, and other forms of media. Learn more at <a href="https://toplap.org">TOPLAP</a> or <a href="https://livecoding.fr">livecoding.fr</a>.</p>
