You can start generating new midi files right away using these pre-trained models.Ĭhallenges: At this point, Magenta can only generate a single stream of notes. For every model Magenta has provided a training bundle that is trained on thousands of midi files. The team is actively improving the models and adding functionality. The documentation is good, so it’s relatively easy to set-up. Great, because: It can handle any monophonic midi file. The project went open source in June 2016 and currently implements a regular RNN and two LSTM’s. They aim to use machine learning to generate compelling music. Magenta is Google’s open source deep learning music project. GitHub links are provided for those who are interested in the technical details (or if you’re looking to generate some music of your own). In this post we will go over six major players in the field, and point out some difficult challenges these systems still face. Looking at music generation through deep learning, new algorithms and songs are popping up on a weekly basis. As deep learning is gaining in popularity, creative applications are gaining traction as well.
