   Still figuring it out, but it can use ableton link for click cycles and output midi.

     You have to check it out. I'm reading the docs now, and it looks to br highly useful as a midi controller.
     
     It can send note on / off and velocity. It can also send CC. Some patterns are far easier to program in tidal than to manual play or enter on a piano roll in any daw. It also has a built in arp and entire chords can be played / arped. It can also distrusted chords and notes and change them each cycle. Lots of stuff packed in there. It can also do any division against any other, e.g. 7 against 4.

     That's interesting, I know FSE Pete made a chiptune album using C code. Personally wavetable synthesis and audio engineering is already complicated enough for me. I don't code and it doesn't interest me in the slightest. I've been working with tools like this

     Sounds neat, not sure that would be necessary for making DnB tracks. I just write my notes in tracker format, either by hand or using my Arturia keyboard.

     Actually this thread has made me go down the rabbit hole of MIDI arpeggiators lol, I have BlueARP, Tonespace and Jeskola Note Matrix, but I can't seem to figure MIDI routing in the DAW. Honesty the pattern editor seems superior to all these tools, but it would be nice to get chord ideas.

     Also the reason I see if as handy is because you could do something like this for a metal beat.
     
     d1 $ sound "[bd*4] [sn bd*3] <[bd*4] [bd*6]> <[sn bd*3] [bd*3 sn bd*2]>"
     
     That will give straight 16th with the snare on three every odd cycle with a triplet roll and snare on 4 of the 4th measure on the even cycles. That's using the internal kit. That's far simpler than writing it into a daw.
     
     It's midi capable. It can use rtpmidid. I tested that far. I just need to get it to send midi to windows. I'm testing that tomorrow. Then you set an instrument as the midi out and send notes or midi values to that instrument. Ableton link for he clock supposedly just works. I just see this as being superior sequencer. Once I pick up the syntax and get a tap, a lot of things I do manually can be automated.

     Jekola Buzz, it's the old war horse. I have Reaper too, but I'm just really comfortable with Buzz's workflow. Yet the midi routing is confusing as fuck and I haven't fully figured it out yet.

     Don't know that daw. I have studio one, but have been sticking to Ableton since version 12. I've used it on and off since 9.

     It looks like tidal can do anything ableton can due to its ability to create a pattern dictionary and simultaneously play patterns. It just doesn't have the vsts I use. Hence why I'm going to use it to sequence.

     I don't know if I want to upgrade. I can't find clear reviews on the Clip launcher.

     So it works. Midi out from linux running Tidal and rtpmidid to windows running ableton and rtpmidi over the network. Tidal can output patterns to separate channels. Ableton link works out of the box (as long as turned on in ableton). Transport and midi click syncs. This is a game changer.

     Yeah. Now I just have to learn the language. It's well documented. I did figure out how to have one line of code with a bass drum, snare, and high-hat all with separate midi velocity patterns, so that's a huge step.

     There are plugins that do this going for $100+ so this is definitely a W for your workflow.

     Plus I can use neovim. There's a plugin to send lines to the tidal interpreter. So I can code on my 8" laptop on the toilet and then use neovim's internal sed switch the instrument to midi send when I'm in the studio. I'm no longer tied to my mixing desk.
