• A smart way to translate guitar chords into piano sheet music with Python

  I chose Python as a programming language here because, as you could probably guess, there are myriads of libraries in Python for working with music. I found mingus to be the simplest for working with guitar chords and music21 for generating the piano score. It might be possible though to do everything with music21 only, because it's extremely powerful, but I found mixing the two libraries to be easier than... - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• [D] Is MusicGPT a viable possibility?

  It's definitely a viable possiblity, and there's quite a few companeis already doing it. If you want to explore doing it yourself, I'd check out https://web.mit.edu/music21/ and build some basic models using LSTM etc. To have some fun using open source MIDI data sets like https://magenta.tensorflow.org/datasets/maestro .

  A little manual, but music21[0] can do the analysis! [0]: http://web.mit.edu/music21/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Bountysource Stole at Least $17,000 from Open Source Developers

  Reminder that librapay exists, and their developers are only paid from user donations, just like anyone else on the platform. https://liberapay.com/ (I only wish their CC costs could be reduced a bit to make micropayments viable). - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Nextcloud and OpenBSD = <3

  I don't think they want your money, not unless you are an enterprise costumer. But feel free to donate to another open source project: https://liberapay.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• The Asymmetry of Open Source: "Users need open source projects, but open source projects do not need users"

  It seems a little suspicious that the person sharing those posts isn't building an open platform himself -- why not make it more open /u/paydevs ? I think Liberapay is a great way to spontaneously pay OSS developers. I'm not opposed to paydevs.com (as far as they're showing), but I encourage increasing transparency and openness, as is I don't feel confident supporting the platform. I think individuals, governments... Source: over 1 year ago
