Projektgeschichte

The official repository describes Dirt as the original classic Dirt sampler, implemented in C for TidalCycles and related use. Its README is deliberately modest, describing it as a small tool for playing pieces of samples with some timing accuracy.

Adoptionsgeschichte

The README documents source builds on Linux, macOS, and Windows/Cygwin, with Homebrew and MacPorts used for dependencies on macOS. The repository description also notes that the classic Dirt lineage was later ported to SuperDirt.

Wie es verwendet wird

Users build Dirt with audio dependencies such as JACK, libsndfile, libsamplerate, liblo, and PortAudio, then run the dirt executable alongside a JACK audio server. In practice it belongs to the live-coding and sample-playback side of package collections.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Dirt is package-nerd interesting because it is a small native audio runtime attached to a larger creative-coding ecosystem: packaging it means making old-school C audio dependencies line up for live performance use.
