To use, type make Where platform name is either linux, win32, or osx. Make sure ChucK is installed first! See the entry below on installing ChucK if this is needed. Windows/OSX users, see the addendum at the bottom of the section.
Afterwards, type make install
Addendum: The ChuGin template generator, Chuginate, was used. It is found in the official ChucK repo for ChuGins (https://github.com/spencersalazar/chugins/tree/master/chuginate). The makefile was modified somewhat from the original Chuginate version, however I am only able to test the linux version, so I am not sure if the win32 and osx versions work.
Try it out in action! Type "chuck test", or "chuck test-audio" to hear some sine waves.
To use in Chuck:
MarkovGenerator mgen;
mgen.loadMidi("test.mid"); //load the midi named test.mid into the generator's matrix
mgen.printMatrix(); //print the first order matrix used for generation - each number is a note played in the loaded midis.
mgen.loadMidi("test.mid"); //load in a second midi, to get a more full table
mgen.printMatrix(); //loading the same midi in twice isn't too interesting, though!
mgen.last(12*5); //set the prior note for generation, in midi numbering (0-12 is C0 to C1). by default, C0 is used. the octave generated notes fall in is also set.
mgen.tonic(2); //set the base note of the octave notes fall in. by default it, is 0.
mgen.seed() => mgen.seed; //this is the seed used for generation. if you like what you hear, save the seed!
mgen.order() => mgen.order; //the order generation is based on. 1-3 are allowed, and 0, the default, randomly picks between these.
<<<mgen.next()>>>; //generate the next note, in midi numbering. a new last note to start generation from can optionally be passed, ie test.next(12*4)
- Installing ChucK
IMPORTANT: CHUCK MUST BE INSTALLED! To install ChucK, download http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/release/files/chuck-1.4.0.0.tgz
Build instructions: http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/build/ Requirements: libsndfile http://www.mega-nerd.com/libsndfile/ (although you can likely get it from a package manager) ALSA, JACK, or OSS gcc, lex, yacc, make
In essence, likely what will be needed, with aptitude, is:
apt-get install libsndfile1-dev
apt-get install libasound2-dev (possibly)
Uncompress the tar and go into the folder
cd ./src
make linux-alsa
make install
