ZenStrings is Condtion30’s music engine. Based on the
company’s proprietary technology, ZenStrings composes complex musical in
real time based on user inputs.
Features:
- Fully interactive
Because the ZenStrings engine generates music, rather than playing back pre-composed
music loops, users can easily change their songs by simply altering one or more
inputs.
- ZenStrings creates the actual composition, making it easy to use
for all users, even those with no musical training
In a traditional approach to music composition, a composer pre-specifies all
aspects of the piece such as rhythm, melody, and dynamics. ZenStrings automates
music creation so that users only have to input simple instructions to start
the musical composition.
- Real-time music generation
ZenStrings music is generated in real time, dispensing with pre-composed MIDI
or audio files that tax memory resources.
- Varied musical compositions
ZenStrings easily creates various compositions, each unique to its specific
inputs.
- Quick, simple modifications
ZenStrings’ algorithms generate a variety of dynamic behaviors, including
true complexity. Modifications are simply parameter changes – each requires
only a few keystrokes or icon selections.
- Psychoacoustic principles embedded in algorithms, making music sound
more realistic
Due to the nature of the ZenStrings algorithms, human beings can intuitively
identify that the music being generated is neither entirely random nor overly
predictable, unless the composer selects such constraints.
- Completely deterministic
The ZenStrings engine generates musical output which is completely deterministic,
unlike other more random music generation systems. These other systems typically
derive their initial input using a random seed value. For any given set of parameters,
ZenStrings-generated music plays exactly the same way every time.
- Generates any required length of music
ZenStrings can be used to create essentially ‘infinite’ compositions – so
that a song can be as short or as long as the user desires.
