music
My first music generation app
After 3 years of training music generation models and interacting with them through CLI, this is my first attempt to build a user interface for them. Playing with it feels really great, it feels like the model is actually usable. https://github.com/eri24816/midi-gen The user interface has a piano roll where you can make music. When needed, you can ask AI to generate a bar for you. It will offer multiple options for your choice, which can be further edited. Occasionally, there emerges music that sounds amazingly good but you didn’t think of. I believe that kind of “accident” is the main value of this AI in music composition.
Physical modeling synth for piano
I really like the sounds of piano. They are a subset of all possible sound waves, with some specific mathematical characteristics which make them sound bright while gentle at the same time. I’ve been trying to understand what’s the magic inside the sounds of piano from i was maybe 12 till now, but I guess my math is still too bad to actually understand it from a fundamental aspect. Recently I try to make a synthesizer for piano by directly simulate the vibration of piano string and sample audio from it. Although the result sounds not actually like a real piano, the journey of implementing the synth is interesting enough to be written down here.
Modeling stiff string for numeric simulation
A way to model the vibration of a stiff string and external forces such as hammer impacts.
Implementing reverb plugin with JUCE
My first attempt at making an audio plugin and the math concepts I learned from it.
