Open Source Python Music Composition Software for Mac

MIDI Master Clock: Simple MIDI Song and Control Change Manager MIDI Master Clock is a lightweight, command-line utility for effortless MIDI device control and synchronization. It lets you define songs or cues in a simple text file, each with its own BPM and custom MIDI Control Change (CC) messages. What It Does: Reads Song Data: Configure song titles, BPM, and MIDI CCs (e.g., CC_ch0 10) in an easy-to-read data.txt file. Interactive Control: Select songs from a list, advance through your set, or quit, all from the command line. Automated MIDI Commands: When you select a song, MIDI Master Clock automatically sends: - All specified MIDI Control Changes (CCs), ideal for triggering effects or states. - MIDI Sync Commands (Stop, Song Position Pointer (0), Start) to prepare your devices. - Accurate MIDI Clock signals based on the song's BPM, keeping your gear perfectly in sync.

Strasheela is a constraint-based music composition system. The user defines music theories by sets of compositional rules and the system creates music which complies with these theories. User-interface is the programming language Oz.

A sequencer specialized for extended just intonation tuning systems. Rationale does not use scales, only collections of notes related by frequency ratio, infinitely transposable. Any rational frequency ratio can be an interval, but no tempered tunings.

A C++ library and Python module for audio synthesis featuring dynamic digital filters. Nsound lets you easily shape waveforms and write to disk or plot them. Nsound aims to be as powerful as Csound but easy to use.

SuperBoucle is a loop based software fully controllable with any midi device. SuperBoucle is also synced with jack transport. You can use it on live performance or for composition. SuperBoucle is composed of a matrix of sample controllable with external midi device like pad. SuperBoucle will send back information to midi device (light up led). Sample will always start and stop on a beat or group of beats. You can adjust duration of sample (loop period) in beat and offset in beat. But you can also adjust sample offset in raw frame count negative or positive. Which mean sample can start before next beat (useful for reversed sample). You can record loop of any size, adjust BPM, reverse, normalize samples, ... Typical usage : * You need to control jack transport with external midi device and want a button to jump to a specified location in song. * You have some instruments patterns but you have no idea of song structure. * You make live performance with pre-recorded instruments.

A Python library to create score files for CSound. It differs from other libraries that generate CSound scores, since a score is represented by a list that can contain different types of objects. It creates patterns in a flexible and compact way.

Ouroborus is an artificial life framework for mobile agents on a background of cellular automata. It can be used to teach and research topics such as population genetics, ecology and evolution. The demo includes a curses view and live Csound audio.

Strum aims to improve your musical skills on stringed instruments; learning scales, chord construction, and how to find them on various instruments with many tunings.
