A Mellotron sample library for Strudel

It's Looptober again and I got off to a pretty good start using Strudel for most of my loops, both out of convenience and as a learning exercise.

It wasn't long before I got interested in Strudel's ability to import samples from anywhere on the web1, and it seemed like a no-brainer to make a library using the leisureland Mellotron samples.

It works! You can use load it in your Strudel pieces by adding this to the top of your REPL:

samples('https://sound.intercrap.com/strudel/mellotron/strudel.json')

This will make a bunch of Mellotron instruments available to the sound() function:

1 When hosting your own Strudel sample library, your web server will need to be configured to allow CORS for the strudel.json and audio sample files. This site is pretty helpful.
