Woah, loving how you're bringing logic-based systems into music, interesting study!

Music theory can get quite intense.

Love that MML sound :>

cool, Did you write code to generate the note outcome or did you compose it yourself?

MML is just a notation, Macrotune is providing the sounds.

Composing is all the code does actually.

I am always puzzled that math can sound so beautyfull...

Eyyy, markov chains. Nifty outcome!

Music in any form is math at the end of the day.

onezero suggested it. I'm sorta opposed to the idea, but note lengths are starting to require a binding in chains.

I like how music can be approached from a really analytical direction or a really intuitive one and awesome results can be achieved either way.

Really smooth interlocking of the melodic and percussion lines. Kudos!

I imagine there're at least a few approaches more, but at least with analytical, you know what you're going to get.

Thanks, next time I'll be adding some manner of harmony.

It's very interesting to read about the theory behind the generation, thanks for including it in the description! If I understand correctly, does it also mean that the song will be different every time that it is composed?

Yes. Such is the nature of all procedural generation, not just Markov chains.

Very cool Do you take the first one out or do you run it a few times and pick one?

The program is still very much a work in progress, so I set up some goals and put those in. I then run the program and debug it until it outputs something that meets the goals. That's the one I go for. The output I put into Macrotune, process that output in Magix Video Sound Cleaning Lab for some effects and call it a day.

But the program itself I run as little as needed, running it a second time won't reliably produce better results, just different results.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but this is the second track I've had trouble getting to play.  It plays 3 notes then goes to silence and if I shuffle around the track it plays the same buffered 3 notes.  I tried in Safari & Firefox and even my phone.  Downloading the track also didn't allow me to hear it.  Last week's track I heard with no problem but 'a timely matter' was the other track I couldn't get to play past the first note also.

Those times I used the same exporter with the same settings. It should work in Vivaldi.

Exact same for me too.

Yes, I can't get it to play.  Also, second one of your tracks this happened with.  The first was on April 1st so I thought it was an April Fools prank.

Maybe it's time to set T80 on the case.
