MIDI Generator with Transformers

Using Machine Learning and Transformers in Python to generate classical music MIDI files.

This is currently a work in progress (WIP) of the music generator. As of now, I am still trying to create a MIDI to numpy array convertor.

As this project is currently unfinished, the repository will be a highly changing and active. If you have any solutions to issues that occur within the code, please request a merge request. Thanks!

The MIDI files were extracted from: http://www.jsbach.net/midi/ (Yes, I got permission from the owner of this website, Dave, to modify the MIDI files for my needs).

Current workings: Transformer model and final Data Preparation!

To do:

• Create a MIDI to numpy array convertor
• Create a numpy array to MIDI convertor
• Extract all Data
• Create a Transformer model
• Create generalization of extraction
• Create a GUI for the model

Note:

If you are using your own MIDI files, and they are from the internet, they may be corrupted. Luckily, there is a way to fix this by uploading to MuseScore Desktop and re-exporting back. Somehow, this fixes errors in the MIDI files.
