- click here to remix the code on Glitch
We also have an ES5 bundle that contains all the models and the core functions, but using in production is not recommended due to its size.
You can use [@magenta/music][mm-npm] in your project using yarn
(by calling yarn add @magenta/music) or npmnpm install --save @magenta/music
(by calling ).
The node-specific bundles (that don't transpile the CommonJS modules) are under
@magenta/music/node. For example:
`js
const mvae = require('@magenta/music/node/music_vae');
const core = require('@magenta/music/node/core');
// Your code:
const model = new mvae.MusicVAE('/path/to/checkpoint');
const player = new core.Player();
model
.initialize()
.then(() => model.sample(1))
.then(samples => {
player.resumeContext();
player.start(samples[0])
});
`
#### Example Commands
yarn install to install dependencies.
yarn test to run tests.
yarn build to produce the different bundled versions.
yarn run-demos to build and serve the demos, with live reload.
(Note: the default behavior is to build/watch all demos - specific demos can be built by passing a comma-separated list of specific demo names as follows: yarn run-demos --demos=transcription,visualizer)
We have made an effort to port our most useful models, but please file an issue if you think something is
missing, or feel free to submit a Pull Request!
OnsetsAndFrames implements Magenta's piano transcription model for converting raw audio to MIDI in the browser. While it is somewhat flexible, it works best on solo piano recordings. The algorithm takes half the duration of audio to run on most browsers, but due to a Webkit bug, audio resampling will make this significantly slower on Safari.

MusicRNN implements Magenta's LSTM-based language models. These include [MelodyRNN][melody-rnn], [DrumsRNN][drums-rnn], [ImprovRNN][improv-rnn], and [PerformanceRNN][performance-rnn].
⭐️Demo: Neural Drum Machine
MusicVAE implements several configurations of Magenta's variational autoencoder model called [MusicVAE][music-vae] including melody and drum "loop" models, 4- and 16-bar "trio" models, chord-conditioned multi-track models, and drum performance "humanizations" with GrooVAE.

models (with the exception of MidiMe) do not support training in the browser
(because they require a large amount of data, which would take an incredibly long time), and they use weights from a model trained with the Python-based [Magenta models][magenta-models]. We are also making available our own hosted pre-trained checkpoints.$3
Several pre-trained checkpoints for all of our models are available and hosted on GCS. The full list is available in this table and can be accessed programmatically via a JSON index here.$3
#### Dumping your weights
To use your own checkpoints with one of our models, you must first convert the weights to the appropriate format using the provided checkpoint_converter script.
This tool is dependent on tfjs-converter, which you must first install using
pip install tensorflowjs. Once installed, you can execute the script as follows:`bash
../scripts/checkpoint_converter.py /path/to/model.ckpt /path/to/output_dir
`There are additional flags available to reduce the size of the output by removing unused (training) variables or using weight quantization. Call
../scripts/checkpoint_converter.py -h to list the available options.#### Specifying the Model Configuration
The model configuration should be placed in a JSON file named
config.json in the same directory as your checkpoint. This configuration file contains all the information needed (besides the weights) to instantiate and run your model: the model type and data converter specification plus optional chord encoding, auxiliary inputs, and attention length. An example config.json file might look like:`json
{
"type": "MusicRNN",
"dataConverter": {
"type": "MelodyConverter",
"args": {
"minPitch": 48,
"maxPitch": 83
}
},
"chordEncoder": "PitchChordEncoder"
}
`This configuration corresponds to a chord-conditioned melody MusicRNN model.
SoundFonts
There are several SoundFonts that you can use with the mm.SoundFontPlayer,
for more realistic sounding instruments:| Instrument | URL | License |
|---|---|---|
| Piano | salamander |Audio samples from Salamander Grand Piano|
| Multi | sgm_plus | Audio samples based on SGM with modifications by John Nebauer|
| Percussion | jazz_kit | Audio samples from Jazz Kit (EXS) by Lithalean |
You can explore what each of them sounds like on this demo page.

A WebWorker is a script that can run in the background,
separate from the main UI thread. This allows you to perform expensive computatios (like
model inference, etc) without blocking any of the user interaction (like animations, scrolling, etc).
All @magenta/music models should work in a WebWorker,
_except for_ GANSynth and Onsets and Frames, which need to use the browser's AudioContext
to manipulate audio data. (You can work around this by separating the audio processing code
from the actual inference code, but we don't currently have an example of this).Here is an example of using a MusicVAE model in a WebWorker. In your main
app.js,`js
const worker = new Worker('worker.js');// Tell the worker to use the model
worker.postMessage({sequence: someNoteSequence});
// Worker returns the result.
worker.onmessage = (event) => {
if (event.data.fyi) {
console.log(event.data.fyi);
} else {
const sample = event.data.sample;
// Do something with this sample
}
};
`In your worker,
worker.js,`js
importScripts("https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@tensorflow/tfjs@1.4.0/dist/tf.min.js");
importScripts("https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@magenta/music@^1.12.0/es6/core.js");
importScripts("https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@magenta/music@^1.12.0/es6/music_vae.js");const mvae = new music_vae.MusicVAE('https://storage.googleapis.com/magentadata/js/checkpoints/music_vae/mel_2bar_small');
// Main script asks for work.
self.onmessage = async (e) => {
if (!mvae.isInitialized()) {
await mvae.initialize();
postMessage({fyi: 'model initialized'});
}
const output = await mvae.sample(1);
// Send main script the result.
postMessage({sample: output[0]});
};

A ServiceWorker is a script that your browser runs in the background, separate from a web page. In particular, ServiceWorkers allow
you to provide offline interactions by controlling what data your browser caches (like soundfont files,
model checkpoint chunks). For a full example, check out the Piano Genie PWA code, that lets you install Piano Genie as a PWA app, and use it entirely offline.This is also extremely useful if you want to test a very large model checkpoint, but
don't want to download it every time you refresh the page.
The main things to look out for are the manifest.json and the meta tags. Then, in your main script, load the service worker:
`js
// Force HTTP.
if (location.protocol == 'http:') location.protocol = 'https:';
if('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
navigator.serviceWorker.register('/sw.js')
.then(reg => console.log('Service Worker registered', reg))
.catch(err => console.error('Service Worker not registered', err));
}
else {
console.warn('Service Worker not supported in this browser');
}
`In
sw.js,`js
self.addEventListener('install', e => {
e.waitUntil(
(async function() {
const cache = await caches.open("your-app-name-assets"); const resources = [
// Static files you want to cache.
"index.html",
"style.css",
"script.js",
"helpers.js",
"manifest.json",
// A built, minified bundle of dependencies.
"magenta-1.7.0.js",
// SoundFont manifest.
'https://storage.googleapis.com/magentadata/js/soundfonts/sgm_plus/soundfont.json',
// Model checkpoint.
"https://storage.googleapis.com/magentadata/js/checkpoints/piano_genie/model/epiano/stp_iq_auto_contour_dt_166006/weights_manifest.json",
"https://storage.googleapis.com/magentadata/js/soundfonts/sgm_plus/acoustic_grand_piano/instrument.json",
// List here all the actual shards of your model.
"https://storage.googleapis.com/magentadata/js/checkpoints/piano_genie/model/epiano/stp_iq_auto_contour_dt_166006/group1-shard1of1"
];
// The actual SoundFont files you will use.
for (let i = 21; i < 105; i++) {
resources.push(
https://storage.googleapis.com/magentadata/js/soundfonts/sgm_plus/acoustic_grand_piano/p${i}_v79.mp3)
} // Cache all of these
const local = cache.addAll(resources);
await Promise.all([local]);
})()
);
});
self.addEventListener('fetch', e => {
// If the resource is cached, send it.
e.respondWith(caches.match(e.request).then(r => r || fetch(e.request)))
});
