__r_e_c_u_r__ is a fully customizable hardware video sampler. the open source python application is built around a _raspberry pi3_ that uses `input` from a _keypad_ to control omxplayer's `video out` while `displaying` a simple text user interface on a _rpi lcd screen_
__r_e_c_u_r__ is an embedded python application on _raspberry pi3_ that uses `input` from the _keypad_ to control omxplayer's `video out` while displaying a simple text user interface on the _rpi lcd screen_
## features
- seamlessly loop video through rpi's HDMI or composite out
- intuitively _browse_ video files on a usb and map them into __r_e_c_u_r__
- intuitively _browse_ video files on an external usb or internally and map them into __r_e_c_u_r__
- load and trigger video samples from numbered slots in the _sampler_ bank
- dynamically set and clear the start/end points of each sample as it plays
- configure the _settings_ menu to suit your use
### more coming soon:
- ~~composite video out (hopefully)~~
- midi controlled
- more playback modes and options
- optional extention for live sampling
- control and sequence all inputs and more with midi-usb
- optional extention for live sampling through the pi camera input
- many sampler modes for varied playback including: repeat, one-shot, gated, random, fixed-length, random-start and more
- exhaustive and extendable _settings_ menu to suit your use

## status
The nature of this project is to be open-ended and community driven. my r_e_c_u_r already solves the problems i intially built it for. what happens next depends on how it is used and recieved by you. if you like the idea please consider getting involved. Currently:

- the _software_ is at a MVP status; the basic functionally is there and should work as expected. no doubt there are both known and unknown bugs around the edges (let me know whats impacting you!). this is also only the beginning of whats possible using python on a raspberry pi. i will continue to maintain and improve it, but in what direction and velocity depends on the users
- the only _hardware_ option currently avaliable is the `diy enclosure`; this is designed be low cost, hackable and accessable. you can modify and 3d print/laser cut your own case, the recommended keypad and lcd parts are the cheapest i could find (with some compromises), basically aiming to get these in the hands of as many other diy-er as interested. if there is any interest i have plans to offer a limited `boutique enclosure` option at some point - professional custom cut aluminum cover , hand wired mechanical keys , real vinyl printed stickers, no compromises! (another future idea : a eurorack version based on raspi3 compute)
