flstudio-mcp

An MCP server connecting Claude to FL Studio, enabling AI-driven music composition, instrument control, and live recording, all via the Model Context Protocol.

Features

• MCP Server for FL Studio: Acts as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to interface between Claude (an AI assistant) and FL Studio.
• AI-Driven Music Composition: Enables Claude to compose music, generate melodies, chords, and drum patterns directly in FL Studio.
• Instrument Control: Allows AI to control and record into specific instruments' piano rolls in FL Studio.
• Live Recording: Facilitates live recording of AI-generated MIDI data into FL Studio's piano roll.
• Virtual MIDI Port Support: Guides users to set up virtual MIDI ports (LoopMIDI for Windows, automatic for Mac) for communication between the server and FL Studio.
• Custom MIDI Controller Integration: Uses a 'Test Controller' in FL Studio's MIDI settings to receive AI-generated MIDI data.
• Cross-platform Support: Instructions provided for both Windows and Mac setup.
• Open Source: The project is open source and contributions are welcome.
• MIDI Data Handling: Includes a method for encoding extended MIDI data (e.g., note positions) over standard 7-bit MIDI messages.
• Community Engagement: Encourages sharing creations and feature requests via Discord.

Installation/Setup

• Set up the MCP server and configure Claude as per the Model Context Protocol documentation.
• Set up virtual MIDI ports and configure FL Studio's MIDI input.
