that is a good find and maybe answers a thread from earlier today "software communication with acoustic instruments" there were some discussions about this recently in our project studio: making a linux application, configured with an idealized MIDI drum score, that listens via MIDI to electronic drums (or acoustic kit with triggers) and tries to calculate the "real-time" tempo based on the incoming drum notes - and then updating jack transport with fine-grained tempo changes - in theory then any jack transport-aware looper or sequencer could play along with the band but we never got beyond the "talk over beers" stage and were unsure if it would work: how would sequencers react to continuous tempo changes? on a deeper level: how hard is the calculation of tempo when you have an "ideal" score vs noisy MIDI data coming from the drums? I see now that IRCAM have spent decades researching the "score following" problem: http://repmus.ircam.fr/antescofo/videos#score-following-history-in-video (also I notice their sample human player is not a drunk rock and roll drummer... and thus that part might be a bit "idealized" as well..) so we would also be curious about experience with this or other similar software. it also would be interesting if there's any open-source code that could be "borrowed" for a jack-centric system as described above..

But recently I have discovered this gem: http://repmus.ircam.fr/antescofo In theory it listens to the audio as you play and it automatically plays the MIDI (or other) stuff following your tempo. Just what I wanted. Before I go the route of installing, converting my MIDI files to the Antescofo syntax, etc. is there anyone here who has tried it and who can let me know (on or off the list) about his/her experience with it? Thanks a lot, |
