This is Two Robots Loitering at Guitar Center.I wrote it via this script, which picks progressions, then modes, and fills them out with riffs and lead phrases that fit those modes. (I tried out sometimes doing some Slayer-style chaos soloing, but I learned you need a human to do that. Or better programming.) It took way longer to get working than I expected, derailing my Synthruary a bit.Once I had the midi files generated to my liking, I put them in NanoStudio with guitar and bass virtual instruments on them. Even though I know all synths that try to sound like guitars with distortion are terrible, I gave them a shot.Then, it occurred to me that clean guitar synths are OK, and I could use renderings with those synths as direct input to an amp modeler. It worked! It doesn't sound totally human (but I could get closer with some changes), but I now have a way of making generative guitar music.
