Friend of mine asked me to create website for their band. My question is if such solution, either CMS (preferably written in PHP) or service (website, must allow css control) already exist created for this purpose. They currently have Myspace profile but we all know how messy it is. Draft requirements for sections: News / Blog (suppo...
I'm trying to get a read on the effort level involved in building a barebones virtual instrument host in C++ or C# but I haven't been able to get any hard information. Does anybody know any good starter apps, tutorials, helper libraries for this sort of thing? If it matters, the goal would be to a) accept incoming MIDI events and b) dis...
I've built a simple music player in Delphi which plays one track after another. Now there should be some kind of "pseudo crossfading" in the player. This means that a track should be faded out at its end and the new track (which starts then) should be faded in. This way I want to avoid those unaesthetic track changes with abrupt crossi...
I've made some Ultrabeat patterns but I can't figure out how to trigger them. I make the pattern on C-1, then I go back to the arrange window and hit record and then hit C1 on my keyboard, and it doesn't play the pattern, it just plays a single note. I have Pattern Mode enabled on Ultrabeat and I'm using a one-shot trigger but I can't se...
In a recent question I was introduced to the work of André Michelle, which blew me away. What other great people or works do you know in the fields of art and music? As someone with a love for math/programming and art/music I'd love to know more about people using sophisticated (or not so sophisticated) techniques to produce creative thi...
I'm doing some work on a site that let's users create their own mini-sites. My client wants users to be able to upload music and have it continuously play as visitors navigate the site. The only good way I can think of doing this is an Iframe, but obviously that will than get rid of unique URLs. I also don't want to use Ajax or a cook...
I use the TMediaPlayer component for playing music. It works fine with most of my tracks. But it doesn't work with some tracks. When I want to play them, the following error message is shown: Which is German but roughly means that: In the project pMusicPlayer.exe an exception of the class EMCIDeviceError occurred. Message: "Error wh...
I have been trying to follow the steps in the book Ruby Practical Project - making music with ruby and was trying to get CoreMIDI and output some notes using SimpleSynth. I can connect to the destination but when i do something like midi = LiveMIDI.new midi.note_on(0, 60, 100) I get no output from the sound system. Has anyone tri...
I have a website where local bands can have a profile page, I'm implementing an upload system so that they can add songs to their profile. I want to make sure that clever visitors to my website cannot download their songs. I was thinking about uploading them to above the folder for my domain so that they cannot be accessed directly. Is...
I've tried the sound module in Pygame, and I haven't been satisfied with the results. I need to play music and sounds in my game. What can I use that works with OSX, Linux and Windows, and plays sound well? Unfortunately, pyMedia doesn't compile on OSX. ...

I'm planning out a summer coding project for myself. I work with a lot of MIDI and have been researching it a lot. I know it's an old technology, but it works with a lot of music hardware/software so in my eyes, it's still viable. Anyway, I haven't ever worked with writing drivers or anything, so I don't know where I would start with thi...
I'm working on Carnatic music scores that involve complex time signatures, that will require modified bar lines Pattern for barlines for: 8/4 beats: 1 2 3 4 (dashed bar here) 5, 6 (Dotted Bar) 7, 8 (double bar) Here's one bar of actual score g16( f) d8 ees( ees) d16( c d8) bes16[( d c bes \bar "dashed" a g]) a[( bes c] d[ ...
Hi! I wrote this post Music and Mathematics, finding the Natural and the Pentatonic scales. I want to find the best programmatic aproach. A solution could be: <script> function getScaleIntervals(c) { var tot = 0; var scale = []; while(tot <= 12){ scale.push(Math.round(tot)); tot += c; } return scale;...
I'd like to learn how to apply network theory to my own cache of relational data. I'm trying to build a demo of a new way of browsing a music library, using network theory, that I think would make for a very intuitive and useful way of finding the right song at any given time. I have all the data (artists as nodes, similarity from 0 to...
I wrote a windows program many years ago, which created music by sending notes to the "midi mapper" (and thence to the midi-synth on my sound-card) Today, I have a soft-synth which, allegedly accepts midi information, so I'd assume it should be possible to use today's equivalent of a midi-mapper to route the midi output from my program ...
I need to know if there is a Web Service whit API that permits to have a streaming (possibly random) music. Also free music or also a 30 sec demo of the music is sufficient. My service need to ask to a web service a random songs with artist, title, place... and it has to play it. Do you know any site that makes it possible? ...
Minim seems like a nice library for building music visualisers and other stuff in java or processing. Is there a nice audio library like this in python ? ...
Lets say you have an normal song with two layers, one instrumental and another of just vocals. Now lets say you also have just the instrumental layer. Is it possible to "subtract" the instrumentals and obtain the pure vocals? Is there going to be loss? How would I go about performing this specific type of subtractive synthesis? ...
How could I get a list of all of the music on the host phone? Not videos or ringtones, just music. ...
