Hello! I have created a very complex tool for creating Generative/Reactive music. Link to the generative/reactive music tool Descriptions of all the parameters are currently missing, but the basic idea is as follows: The state machine executes one action at a time until the current harmonic rythm is over. Then it executes the "on_done" action where state transitions can occur. The controls to the right are dynamically constructed by the <parameters> in the XML-stuff to the left. The parameters control how the music is generated. Click the "Stop/Reload" button to read any changes in the XML-text. Have fun!

The upness controls the "embellishment" of the harmony and the melody. If upness is high, the notes tend to go more up the scale and so on. I agree that the MIDI is quite terrible, but one can build a better soundbank perhaps? The music reacts slowly because it generates a whole measure at a time and I am simply appending a track with events which gives a certain lag. Also, there is a smoothing factor to prevent sudden changes. However, all of these problems will be taken care of in future iterations. Have any of you tested cgMusic? (edit: I saw that you already have discussed this in the forums. Sorry :) ) I ask because my next step is to try and make adaptable versions of some of the scripts in that program.

Yes, manouvering is a bit difficult without steering assist but I have developed that as well and that makes it much easier indeed. And yes, the graphics is the next big thing for me after I got a reasonable good music system running. There is also a complete level editor available here but that does not currently include any music module. It will include that module eventually and make it possible for users to set different parameters for the music generation and give their own levels unique music!

Hi, I am not sure if I should post this here but here it goes: I am currently developing software for dynamic generative electronic music and I have some primary results in the following Youtube-video: It is all crappy pure MIDI and it has a lot of other problems but I think that it has a lot of potential if I continue to improve it. What do you think? Please remove this post if it is not appropriate for this forum. I will not bother you again then :)
