This video has a step-by-step demo of using Skred v0.50.0 as a synth and drum machine construction kit.

The video shows a little of MIDI connection stuff too.

For a MIDI "keyboard" here, I used a program called VMPK since it's on-screen and show what I hit versus how if affects Skred, but a real attached MIDI input device works too.

Skred works on Linux, macOS, and MSWindows.

There are precompiled versions of the CLI livecoding shell on GitHub under username octetta and repo pulp... look at the releases there for SKRED 0.50.0 to match functionality shown here.
