Giant Steps EDM Note Suggest

API for electronic dance music note suggestion by Music Artificial Intelligence Algorithms, Inc., in association with the GiantSteps project (http://www.giantsteps-project.eu/)

Installation

$ npm install giant-steps-edm-note-suggest --save

Usage

To analyze music data and create a state transition matrix, run

$ node index.js

from comannd line. (As with other node packages, first you must have created a node_modules folder in the package root and run

$ npm install

in the node_modules folder, to get the dependencies.)

To use with your own music data, each song/piece must be in the form of a nested array, with dimensions for ontime in quarter-note beats counting from zero for measure 1 beat 1, MIDI note number, duration in quarter-note beats, channel number, and velocity (0-127). For example,

[
  [0, 39, 0.1354, 10, 69],
  [0, 56, 7.1604, 5, 73],
  [0.2500, 53, 0.3125, 3, 108],
  [1, 53, 0.4938, 3, 110],
  [1, 42, 0.2500, 10, 111],
  [1.2500, 39, 0.1146, 10, 59],
  [1.7500, 55, 0.5104, 3, 107],
  [2, 42, 0.2500, 10, 111],
  [2, 38, 0.3750, 10, 113],
  ...
]

These songs/pieces should be placed in a folder called jsps, following the folder structure of data/example, and the variable inOutPath in index.js should be changed to point to this location.
