chords2midi VS midica - a user suggested alternative

I made a completely free music theory website for writing chord progressions where you can export the midi to your DAW
I made a CLI version of this before, you might want to check out the algorithm to see how I did voice leading: https://github.com/Miserlou/chords2midi

Coltrane: A music theory library with a command-line interface
Looks awesome, love the tab view.
If there other hackers who make music here, I wrote this:
https://github.com/Miserlou/chords2midi
for writing chord progressions on the command line. I use it for building progressions which I drag into my DAW. It has voice leading, which required me translating an algorithm from 18th century German musical textbook into Python. I don't speak German and there were no unit tests in the 1700s so I'm only fairly certain that it works properly.
I will make a plugin version once ableton supports CLAP.

Alda – Text-Based Programming Language for Music Composition
I ended up creating a lighter version of this for one my projects, https://github.com/Miserlou/chords2midi
I think that something that Alda looks like it lacks right now is doing things around intervals rather than notes, as transpositions and key changes will be very tedious without embedded knowledge of intervals.
The whole thing is based around a Python library called Mingus, which I think gives you most of what you'd ever need to build a music programming project.

- Anyone has this Nikos beatmaker midi pack?

Ask HN: Do you create music? let's hear it
This is cool, I made a similar command line tool for generating the same sort of thing: https://github.com/Miserlou/chords2midi

Tonal.js: Functional music theory lib
They're using objects, including arrays [1], so I think they would have been more precise to say that they're using objects and arrays as simple data structures rather than using OO features like inheritance and mutation.

What is this scale called?
It's not on this list, but it's a cool list to check out either way

What is your must have npm package on any given project?
I'm working on a music project and both tonejs and tonal are incredible projects.

Coltrane: A music theory library with a command-line interface
Regarding the "Music Theory library" aspect, note that the CLI tool demonstrates use of the underlying Ruby library which has documentation here:
* https://github.com/pedrozath/coltrane/wiki/Core-music-theory...
Additionally, the author wrote a post about the motivation for creating the library but it's a little difficult to find via the (now broken) link in the README, so here is a direct link to the archived page on the Wayback Machine:
* https://web.archive.org/web/20170714063625/https://medium.co...
If anyone is interested in a similar music theory library for Javascript[0] I've had some success with this:
* Tonal / Tonal.js https://github.com/tonaljs/tonal
[0] Or, in a pinch, even with a Godot 4 web export as I did for my (very incomplete) "AI and Games" Game Jam entry: https://rancidbacon.itch.io/the-conductor (For reasons far too convoluted to go into now.)

Scales - Practise all of them, or just a few each day?
There are many hundreds of scale types, here's a list of many of them and that's just a single key. Let's say there's 200 scales times 12 for each key, that's 2400 times up and down the piano. There are actually much more than 200 scales though!

I want to use this module in my code but can't figure out how.
I found a module that is perfect for what I'm trying to create, (a simple piano that you can select keys on to find out which chord it gives), and am trying to use https://github.com/tonaljs/tonal .

Anyone know of a music theory library for C#?
Agree with the representation, you can really bury yourself in complexity if you're not careful. Have you taken a look at any of the JS libraries like tonal or MusicTheoryJS?
- Max 4 Live, or standalone Max 8?
