Please add a License.txt

Hi - it would be great if you could add a license file to this project and dependent projects. While the selection is up to you, a permissive academic license is great (MIT, Apache, BSD). If you prefer GPL copyleft licenses, a dual license is most flexible if you would like to engage in an approach for commercialization (with GPL + commercial license options you can be assured nobody can run off with anything without contributing back any source they distribute, and most real corporate lawyers would block GPLv2+ use in anything distributed for profit). If you are the sole contributor you will always have control over licensing decisions (including changing your mind about the license). I look forward to trying out the software and I am willing to contribute back what I can. Personally I put most of my non-customer work under Apache, BSD-3 clause, or MIT/X. I'd rather see more people using software than having to get lawyers to review if it is possible.

Most likely follow AudioKit’s trajectory. I think they were Apache, but seems now to be MIT. Will look into it.

Interesting ... is it this? https://github.com/bmitc/mit-no-ai-license

I haven't seen this license before. It isn't based on anything listed in the OSI database.
