Brilliant. I guess current AI innovations will cross that path as well very soon.

For classical music
1) I load an original sheet music from Musescore or Finale,
2) I convert it in midi and open it in Logic
3) I choose a interpretation I love as a reference and I load it as audio track on the same project.
4) Then I set the master tempo to an average and I create a bunch of points each two 2/4.
5) Then I tweak each 2/4 tempo to align the midi and audio performance. At the end you have audio reference and midi in sync.
6) I apply a slight randomize on starting time, length and velocity
7) I record live the sustain pedal in a different track and then merge to the piano track
8) I tweak the velocities to my taste (and following the reference by ear)
9) I do some mixing and mastering in Logic (and mute the audio track).
10) I render midi to audio.....
All this is a recursive project. This means that apart from the sync to the master audio, all the rest is a back and forth process.

Paolo

Hi Paolo and welcome to this sub-forum,

It is a long playlist of classical and jazz music. Many famous pieces. Nice to listen to ptq 8.
Deep purple, Autumn leaves and Danny boy are pieces I particularly like and Gershwin of course

Interesting this midi editing, humanizing and audio rendering.Good job

Good that you mention "Good headphones recommended for the best listening experience", because of binaural. Binaural sound is best experienced by headphones. If to play binaural audio on stereo speakers, one should have to hold the speakers up to your ears . (Binaural audio technically refers to audio captured in a way that a person would hear the sound exactly as they would in the real world).

I suppose more is coming.
Keep going!

Best wishes,

Stig
