COMPUTER MUSIC PROGRAMMING Not in any particular order. I find that REASON is an outstanding program. BIAB (Band in a box), also is excellent for follow along rehearsal of music, for live musicians. Sibelius is great if you want to “score” a whole orchestra, or band. Guitar Pro is an excellent program for actually “seeing” the chords being played. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Those new to audio editing should look at Willow Software's Anvil Studio... It's a very good tool with a nice tutorial interface... The strength of the program is in its MIDI support. It handles all MIDI features with ease... This application is great for new users... If you have never used a MIDI editing program before, pick up Anvil Studio. There is no other one like it.

    CSC 361/661 Digital Media Fall 2017 Professor Burg Final Project Digital Sound and Music Due Friday, December 8 at 1:00 PM The Assignment for Undergraduate Students You will work in pairs on this program. Both students in a pair will get the same score on the program, unless it becomes clear that a student took a "free ride." Please try to work as a balanced team. Both of you should be active and involved. Neither of you should dominate the pair and do all the work. You'll need to find times to work together outside of class. I don't want you to divide up the work and say "you do this and you do that." I don't want one of you to do the writeup and one do the programming. You both should be involved in both parts. I want you to discuss the problem and the implementation and work out the logic and the code together in person. Your challenge is to create two pieces of meditative music with interesting frequency components. We will listen closely to an example piece of music called Insight by Jeffrey Thompson. You can get the Insight.wav file from the drop box I shared with you. See also https://www.soundstrue.com/store/jeffrey-thompson-5379.html In the evaluation of your project for a grade, your process of making the music and your explanation of the process in a written report will be more important than your final product (although it's always nice to have a pleasing final product).

    Exploring Polyrhythms, Polymeters, and Polytempi with the Universal Grid Sequencer Framework

    Exploring Polyrhythms, Polymeters, and Polytempi with the Universal Grid Sequencer framework SAMUEL J. HUNT, Creative Technologies Laboratory Fig. 1. Large format grid controller, made from 4 smaller grid controllers Polyrhythms, Polymeters, and Polytempo are compositional techniques that describe pulses which are desynchronous between two or more sequences of music. Digital systems permit the sequencing of notes to a near-infinite degree of resolution, permitting an exponential number of complex rhythmic attributes in the music. Exploring such techniques within existing popular music sequencing software and notations can be challenging to generally work with and notate effectively. Step sequencers provide a simple and effective interface for exploring any arbitrary division of time into an even number of steps, with such interfaces easily expressible on grid based music controllers. The paper therefore has two differing but related outputs. Firstly, to demonstrate a framework for working with multiple physical grid controllers forming a larger unified grid, and provide a consolidated set of tools for programming music instruments forit. Secondly, to demonstrate how such a system provides a low-entry threshold for exploring Polyrhytms, Polymeters and Polytempo relationships using desynchronised step sequencers.

  • Computer Mediated Music Production: a Study of Abstraction and Activity

    Computer Mediated Music Production: a Study of Abstraction and Activity

    Computer mediated music production: A study of abstraction and activity by Matthew Duignan A thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science. Victoria University of Wellington 2008 Abstract Human Computer Interaction research has a unique challenge in under- standing the activity systems of creative professionals, and designing the user-interfaces to support their work. In these activities, the user is involved in the process of building and editing complex digital artefacts through a process of continued refinement, as is seen in computer aided architecture, design, animation, movie-making, 3D modelling, interactive media (such as shockwave-flash), as well as audio and music production. This thesis exam- ines the ways in which abstraction mechanisms present in music production systems interplay with producers’ activity through a collective case study of seventeen professional producers. From the basis of detailed observations and interviews we examine common abstractions provided by the ubiqui- tous multitrack-mixing metaphor and present design implications for future systems. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors Robert Biddle and James Noble for their endless hours of guidance and feedback during this process, and most of all for allowing me to choose such a fun project. Michael Norris and Lissa Meridan from the Victoria University music department were also invaluable for their comments and expertise. I would also like to thank Alan Blackwell for taking the time to discuss my work and provide valuable advice. I am indebted to all of my participants for the great deal of time they selflessly offered, and the deep insights they shared into their professional world.

    Musictronics For Audio To Midi Conversion MUSICTRONICS FOR AUDIO TO MIDI CONVERSION 1L.R.KARL MARX, 2I.GOGUL, 3A.MAHADEVAN, 4S.SASIKUMAR 1-4Electronics and Communication Engineering, Thiagarajar College of Engineering Thiruparankundram, Madurai, Tamil Nadu Abstract - The purpose of this paper is to convert an audio signal into MIDI. The overall idea is to output an instrument sound that plays the recorded human voice with accurate pitch and duration. This is a task requiring wider range of theoretical knowledge and their utilization in the practical part of the process. As a part of study, an algorithm has been designed and developed for implementing a real-time guitar tuner using Matlab, which outputs accurate frequency of the input signal and corrects it, if it is not in a perfect intonation. This idea has been extended to convert voice data into MIDI, for which another algorithm has been developed, and also hardware has been implemented. This technology has several music-related applications and is meant for musicians of all skill levels. One could also easily perform pitch corrections/alterations on MIDI data. MIDI is also useful in many areas, where one can apply different timbres to pitches (ex. use your voice to produce a guitar sound).
