Apr 2026 – July 2026
Brought back the concept, revitalized with AI, and added support for all major DAWs.
Jun 2019 – Aug 2019
Developed core breakdown tool for Ableton files. Developed prototype to prove out concept.
Overview
tapos was created from a scrap project made in 2019. Music project naming is super subjective, so being able to quickly preview the highlights of a project helps navigate these large libraries. I'll let the website do the sales pitch!
Tech Breakdown
- Originally developed with Electron to ensure clean modern visuals with minimum work, then converted to Tauri to minimize executable size.
- Parsing Ableton, Pro Tools, and FL Studio project formats took the most work in the end, with limited GarageBand and Logic support, and supporting project versions going back a decade was critical.
