Relativism

Probabilistic music creation

What is it?

Relativism is a project to edit, analyze, and synthesize music.

Can I try it?

Yes, download the repo and run python3 __main__.py (and if it doesn't work go back a few commits and try again). Most stable currently is creating Projects and editing Recordings

What can it do?

With an easy command-line interface, you can:

• read audio in many formats
• record audio live from any audio input
• write audio to .wav format
• edit audio, including:
  • slice, stretch, and slow
  • repeat and reverse
  • fade-in and out
  • save, demo, and undo changes
• apply common effects, such as:
  • bitcrushing
  • distortion
  • echo and reverb
• create and save projects
• use Samplers that generate output, with controlled randomness

How does its computation work?

Because the audio is typically stored at sample rates 44,000 samples per second, in stereo, editing of a full song requires millions of data points. To make this a usable program, nearly all operations have been vectorized with NumPy.
