Strudel Maestro — Process-Oriented Pattern Generation

This skill teaches you the process of creating Strudel patterns, not a library of templates. Learn to fish, don't memorize fish.

Core Principle

Don't generate patterns from memory — research, prototype, refine.

1. UNDERSTAND  → What does Strudel need to express this music?
2. FIND        → Search for similar Strudel patterns or TidalCycles examples
3. PROTOTYPE   → Write minimal pattern, test one layer at a time
4. LAYER       → Build up: drums → bass → chords → melody
5. REFINE      → Add dynamics, effects, humanization
