this is a seriously cool new tool. feels a lot like Pure Data but with built-in modules more akin to VCV. there's python scripting and VST support too!

i second this if only because this fits the mantra of botb so well
also i have been using this thing nonstop since discovering it

Just downloaded this the other day, but I'm jazzed to goof around with it!

The latest release

introduces the songbuilder module, which makes it much easier to sequence an entire song instead of sticking to loops and generative music. This makes it better as a potential battle format. (I still wish they added a tracker module, if only for the aesthetics)

Note: version 1.2.0 has a bug where it doesn't load patches created with older versions. The latest nightly build

resolves it.

This looks very cool, and I had never heard of it before -- thank you for bumping this thread!

oh damn, old thread bump.

without checking the tool, I wld like to say: more badges to get = good

When it comes to feature requests, necroposting is preferable to duplicate threads IMO.

Woah, that was fast. Thanks puke!

Should the format allow for free external plugins? On the one hand, that's one of Bespoke's main strengths compared to Rack, SunVox and Pure Data. On the other hand, it might make it hard to play other people's patches, as you'd need to hunt for the missing VSTs yourself.

not allowed for Renoise so i don't think it should be allowed here either

i have updated the lyceum with additional restrictions for entries, let me know if these are in some way unreasonable... https://battleofthebits.com/lyceum/View/bespoke+%28format%29

Is the use of samples okay?

as far as i know, samples are stored within the .bsk file, at least from the testing i've done. so it should be fine. watch the file size though!

I've just looked at the Signalist class request thread and I wonder whether the reasons for keeping SunVox a Mixist format don't apply to Bespoke as well. I mean, it has a MIDI player in it that can save and load files. You can create eight MIDI players and patch them to samplers/synths to create a rudimentary fakebit environment. Where does the boundary between categories lie?

I would like this more if there was a clear way to do sample and hold

@max chaplin
the difference is the intent of the tool, vcv rack can also play midi, but the main intent and design is around shuttling numbers around boxes, and there are many ways to do so, while sunvox is equally focused around its tracker system and focused around set song structure.
