Dymo Designer

A web app for designing dynamic music objects.

Installing

First install Bower if you haven't yet:

$ npm install -g bower

Then clone the dymo-designer project to your computer:

$ git clone https://github.com/florianthalmann/dymo-designer.git

Go to the cloned project folder and run:

$ npm install
$ bower install

Now you can navigate to http://localhost:8080 in your browser to start the app.

Generating Feature Files

Install Sonic Annotator and any desired Vamp plugins. Extract the features you are interested to JSON or RDF (N3) files using e.g.

$ sonic-annotator -d vamp:qm-vamp-plugins:qm-barbeattracker:beats input/example/example.mp3 -w json

Creating Dymos from Feature Files

Gather all audio and feature files you want to use in your dymo in a custom subfolder of the input folder, e.g. input/experience1/. In Dymo Designer, go to the features tab and select your custom folder and import the features by clicking on the Add Feature button.

Defining Interaction Schemes

Exporting and Playing Back Dymos

You can play back the created dymos using the Semantic Player.
