Terminal Views

resonon view <name> opens a view in the terminal; VSCode’s Open … commands open the same views. The names and flags are in the CLI reference.

ViewShowsNeeds a server
consoleThe server’s outputYes
mixerTrack levelsYes
routingAudio and MIDI routing, per trackYes
scopeEach signal passed to scope(), one lane eachYes
midi_monitorAll MIDI on this machineNo

In every view, q or Ctrl+C quits. When the connection drops, the view returns to the connect screen and shows why.

A view that needs a server opens on a list of the servers found on the network, unless it was given both --host and --port. A server that needs a password shows 🔒. A server leaves the list 6 seconds after it was last heard.
