How to Make Music With Machine Learning Using C#

Introduction

 
This article is a full project example of a simple music ML using design patterns for converting music theories into a C# windows form application and creating cusomizable output results by via the windows form user interface. This pianist has learned to create music bar templates and use them to create musical melodies for each bar at run time with fully randomized results. This project used Sanford.Multimedia.Midi library to playing outputs, but it is possible to use this library to convert output results into MIDI file format too. I tried to create a simple music template outputs by writing all needed music theories into design patterns. This project can play many randomized melodies and all converted music theories are customizable in the user interface.

Author Introduction

 
There is much artificial intelligence for sound and music that fall into different types. For example, sound analysis, human voice analysis, reading brain signals when hearing sounds, music assistant and writing music notes software, software for music production, and more. Some of them are amazing because they can create a work of art, and for us, the difference may be that we can create art with programming and data, and that's great. But the truth is that there are sophisticated algorithms that have been developed over the years by various researchers in a variety of technologies, including electronics and information technology. Some algorithms may not work with big data, but they have many complexities, most of which are related to analysis. This is because they are supposed to have outputs that excite humans.
 
I have a simple ML example if you like to start art programming. For example, if you want to create a music note writing program, you need to create all basics theories like what I did categorize in this project and include more of yours. I am interested in auto-generating music algorithms so I created this project based on simple auto-generating melodies for 4/4 and 3/4 music bars. But you need to discover patterns of harmony, rhythm, and style in music to create full music to excite humans. The fact is that this requires a professional team that does not fit into an article.
 
Some music applications compose by synthesizer, so you have to work with frequencies, and your data mining maybe have to render big data. Then, you will have a difficult time finding fast algorithms for rendering.
 
For example, you have to listen to a song, and detect the tempo of the music, scale, and rhythm and export all sounds of track separated by vocals, instruments, or drums.
 
Therefore, you need to write your algorithms by frequencies in these steps:
  1. Find an algorithm to divide all instrumental, drums, effects and vocal frequencies from each other
  2. Find an algorithm to detect ticks of tempo and a clean timeline
  3. Find an algorithm to detect all bars of the soundtrack by using detected tempo and timeline of the track by the rhythm
  4. Find an algorithm to detect each beat of the detected bars
  5. Find an algorithm to detect how many notes are in each detected bar by their properties like divided sounds
  6. Find an algorithm to detect which frequency is used for starting note
  7. Find an algorithm to detect the notes of the music scale by detected first note frequency
"Each step need using some ML libraries too, you can not write these algorithms without the help of other AI libraries, for example you have to detect which frequency is for an instrument"
 
Here are some complexities in each step, for example in step 7 (scales), some music has modulation in scales, and you have to discover the modulations happened in the music. Therefore, you have to separate their notes when they have a close relationship together by their notes and you need to explain that modulation happens in music, or some times some scales have descending notes that they are different with the base scale notes and they are close to another scale, so you have a difficult time detecting scale by data mining when it is difficult by human too, but it is possible.
 
Your music application should learn basic music theories, like what I did in the example project:
  • Octaves and notes, by their properties
  • Scales and their types like heptatonic or pentatonic and more
  • Tempo
  • Note Values and Silence (time length for each note by tempo)
  • Rhythm and bars
These basic theories are enough for example project, but I want to explain to you what probability we might have in output results of the example project for 4/4 bars in heptatonic scales.
 
Count of Templates = COT = 6561
Avrage of Note Count in All Templates = AVG = 10
Scale Notes Count = SNC = 7
Scales Count = SC = 14
So the minimum output result count in this project is
Count of output melodies in 4/4 bars in example project =
(COT * (AVG ^ SNC)) * SC =
(6561 * (10 ^ 7)) * 14 =
918540000000000 possible melody bars for play just for 4/4 rhythm bars
 
This ML can generate 5 hours of music templates for each request in a second with a tempo of 120.
 
You can create a table in a database and save all generated melodies in this table to check to identify any melody. This helps you to run a loop until it geta a new melody or you can find out that you need more new randomization methods for generating new melodies. Saving more properties for each melody help you to discover how to generate a piece of music. You need to read many MIDI sample music by categorized titles, like their music genre or properties by their musical theories. Then your machine has learned harmonic fluctuations by your algorithms and has many templates for an infinity full music generator. MIDI format is a standard music data for compting music. MIDI is a small size music file with many properties in detail. If you have discovered cool generating algorithms, you have so many standard music templates for your machine learning to start.
 
I tried to write the project based on the design patterns so that I could explain it to you by C#

Topic 1 - Basic Music ML Data Mining
 
It is simple if you just want to create a melody for a bar of a rhythm. I did play all my templates in a queue without a data mining selection algorithm and just by random selection and sometimes interesting results are heard. Now imagine if you could find a simple algorithm to create a melody with many bars, you could have great results. But to make full music, you have to analyze other music and learn their harmonies based on data and base your program to composing by popular mix and mastering ways. There are many algorithms that can convert a simple one note for the human with exciting frequency modes, while you can't create such a work with any instrument, the basic old algorithm example is Echo for Vocals.
 
This project needs a simple data mining for generating a melody for a bar. If we define how a melody is created in a bar, then we can reach the melody with a few simple choices. Each bar has a queue of notes with a playtime length. Each length is calculated by tempo number and the sum of the note value lengths are standard in each bar for each rhythm by tempo.
 
In each place of the bar note values, we can put a note selected from a requested scale. Now if your scale has 7 notes and your template is created by 4 notes, then you have 4^7 possible melodies for your template.
 
So you just need to do the simple steps below: 
  • Step 1: Create a list of notes from requested or randomized octave
  • Step 2: Create a separate note list by requested scale from the created list in step 1
  • Step 3: Choose a template by requested tempo and rhythm bar, length of each note value must calculate by tempo number
  • Step 4: Choose a note for starting a melody and select notes with a count of your template to create an int array of note numbers for usage in next step
  • Step 5: Using a randomization method by the requested randomize type and use note numbers array for selection in the randomize method
  • Step 6: Create a queue of randomized results with the length of tempo note values, in this step you have to put each index of randomized note numbers into the template note index places in each beat of the bar
The usage of these steps is in topic 6.
