# AI Music Co-Producer for REAPER DAW An intelligent music production assistant that integrates with REAPER DAW, providing AI-powered tools for music creation and production. This project implements a MCP(Model Context Protocol) server that allows for automated control and manipulation of REAPER projects. Users can chat with any LLM that supports MCP protocol, and the AI agent will understand their musical intentions and make the necessary changes to their REAPER project in real-time - similar to having a virtual music producer that can understand and implement your creative vision through natural conversation. ## Features - **AI-Powered Music Production** - Integrate with any LLM that supports MCP server protocol - Similar to Cursor for coding, but for music production - **Project Management** - Get project state (BPM, length, tracks) - Set project BPM - Create and delete tracks - Add and delete MIDI items - **MIDI Editing** - Add MIDI notes to active takes - Create new MIDI items - Manage MIDI items on tracks - **VST Plugin Integration** - List available VST plugins - Add VST plugins to tracks - Get and set FX parameters - Manage FX chains on tracks ## Prerequisites - REAPER DAW (64-bit version) - Python 3.x - Required Python packages (see Installation) ## Installation 1.
