This project allows you to train a neural network to generate midi music files that make use of a single instrument
- Python 3.x
- Installing the following packages using pip:
- Music21
- Keras
- Tensorflow
- h5py
To train the network you run lstm.py.
E.g.
python lstm.py
The network will use every midi file in ./midi_songs to train the network. The midi files should only contain a single instrument to get the most out of the training.
NOTE: You can stop the process at any point in time and the weights from the latest completed epoch will be available for text generation purposes.
Once you have trained the network you can generate text using predict.py
E.g.
python predict.py
You can run the prediction file right away using the weights.hdf5 file
