How to compose music by computer?

To create a musical work in the traditional way, we must first write a well-conceived melody, and then begin to write harmony and orchestration. This process is long and arduous. When writing harmony and orchestration, you need to write a lot of music scores, and such a big workload must be completed by the creator alone. Sometimes, due to the rich use of musical instruments, the sound effects needed in the selection of music in China are grand and spectacular, which requires composers to spend a lot of time and energy to make and arrange music. However, in writing, composers can only rely on the application of previous writing experience and theoretical knowledge, or play the piano to listen to the harmony effect or measure the sound effect. Of course, this is easy for those experienced composers, but it is more difficult for some inexperienced musicians with average music level. After the harmonica is written, you should give the score to the player to practice, and then start the band rehearsal. In the process of rehearsal, the composer needs to communicate with the performer constantly to achieve the composer's musical intention. When there is a problem in the composer's writing or the band's performance, it needs to be coordinated or revised on the spot so that the band's rehearsal can go smoothly. After all the above work is completed, we will start recording.

In the creation of computer music, firstly, after the melody creation is completed, the required instrument timbre is found out from the sound source by computer and sequence software, and then the instrument is matched. Through timbre selection, quantification, volume adjustment, strength adjustment, intensity adjustment and other production methods, in this case, music production has completed the preliminary work. In the production process, the composer is fully responsible for controlling the timbre, strength, speed, length and performance style of the instrument, which saves a lot of time and energy in communicating with the performer to a certain extent. In addition, in computer music creation, after creating the melody first, you can find out the timbre of the instrument you need from the sound source through the computer and sequence software for orchestration. Through timbre selection, quantification, volume adjustment, dynamics adjustment and other production methods, the preliminary music production is completed. In the production process, the composer controls the timbre, strength, speed, length and performance style of all instruments, saving a lot of time and energy to communicate with the players. In addition, the sequencer software is like an excellent playing band, and even the most difficult pieces of music can be done well. Because most of the current music production software has refined and humanized production technology, the playing methods of various musical instruments can almost be reflected in the software. It can be seen that the creative process of computer music production is completely different from traditional music. The use of computer, audio source and sequence software greatly saves the manpower, material resources and time spent in completing the works in the process of traditional music creation.
