# Beat Blender

### Blend beats using machine learning to create music in a fun new way. [g.co/beatblender](https://g.co/beatblender)

Built using [deeplearn.js](https://deeplearnjs.org) and [MusicVAE](https://github.com/tensorflow/magenta/tree/master/magenta/models/music_vae).

## Usage

Beat Blender requires the [GCloud SDK](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/downloads) for running the server and [node + npm](http://nodejs.org) for javascript development.

1. Run `npm install` to install all of the dependencies of this project.

2. Run `npm start` to begin all file-watchers and to initialize the server on port `8080`

3. Open `http://localhost:8080`

## Easter eggs

You have added a few query-strings that you can play with, you can load a different model for MusicVAE using `checkpoint=url` or a custom model for generating new beats with `samplerCheckpoint=url`
