Top 3 C++ Composition Projects

  • helio-sequencer

    One music sequencer for all major platforms, desktop and mobile

    • Project mention: Helio: Libre Music Composition Software | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-10

    I downloaded this and played around with it a little.

    I’m a little skeptical of something that ditches traditional music notation for piano roll, doesn’t offer any ways to reorganize sections of your song, and then gives you a bunch of tools for key signatures, modes, polymeter, and microtonal music. I’m trying to think of a programming analogy—it’s like checking out a new programming language that has dependent types, higher-kinded types and monads, and a borrow checker, but no strings or integers.

    It’s really easy for those of us with analytical, mathematical minds to go diving into the more esoteric parts of music theory. Set theory, microtonality and alternative tuning systems, esoteric scales and cataloging all these different scales—but then you fuck up the basics or miss them completely. I noticed that the “major” scale is only available under its more esoteric name, the “ionian” scale, and then there are five different versions of locrian to choose from, not counting the ones outside 12-EDO.

    Even with all these esoteric features, there is no such thing as, say, Eb. There is only D#. As programmers, we really want to normalize all our data so that it’s represented in exactly one way, but as a musician I like having both sharps and flats around. They’re convenient and make the music easier to read.

    This is a neat tool for playing around with scales and tunings, but it seems like absolute hell to try and write music this way.

  • FunctionalPlus

    Functional Programming Library for C++. Write concise and readable C++ code.

    • Project mention: Leaving Haskell Behind | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-24

    Hoogle is really amazing!

    Inspired by it, I implemented something similar for FunctionalPlus (a functional-programming library for C++): https://www.editgym.com/fplus-api-search/

    I'd love to see more projects taking this path too. :)

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • cane

    A small MIDI sequencer DSL designed around vectors and euclidean rhythms (by Jackojc)
