🎹 Infinite Grand Piano Player: Real-Time Algorithmic Music with JavaScript

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFrPWF8kCT0

Explore the technical implementation of an Infinite Grand Piano Player built entirely in JavaScript.

This algorithm dynamically generates piano melodies using:

Random motif generation: Mini note pools created from sub-arrays to produce unique lines.

Single vs. mixed sub-array selection: Motifs are sometimes drawn from one sub-array, other times from multiple, creating dynamic variations.

Transpose & variation: ±2 step transpositions add natural melodic flow.

Tone.js powered audio engine: Real-time piano playback with effects chain including reverb, delay, EQ, and compression.

Interactive visualization: Motifs and lines are rendered live on the web interface.

See how JavaScript can create live, interactive algorithmic music directly in the browser.
