kord

A music theory binary and library for Rust / JS (via WASM) (capability playground).

Binary Usage

Install

Windows:

$ iwr https://github.com/twitchax/kord/releases/latest/download/kord_x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.zip
$ Expand-Archive kord_x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.zip -DestinationPath C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Programs\kord

Mac OS (Apple Silicon):

$ curl -LO https://github.com/twitchax/kord/releases/latest/download/kord_aarch64-apple-darwin.zip
$ unzip kord_aarch64-apple-darwin.zip -d /usr/local/bin
$ chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/kord

Linux:

$ curl -LO https://github.com/twitchax/kord/releases/latest/download/kord_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.zip
$ unzip kord_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.zip -d /usr/local/bin
$ chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/kord

Cargo:

$ cargo install kord

NPM:

$ npm install --save kordweb

Wasmer

This has a reduced capability set (no audio input / output), but works well for some of the core use cases.

$ wasmer install twitchax/kord

Alternatively, you can use wasmer run.

$ wasmer run twitchax/kord -- describe Am7

B♭7(♯9)(♯11)
   dominant sharp 9, altered, altered dominant, super locrian, diminished whole tone, seventh mode of a melodic minor scale, melodic minor up a half step
   B♭, C♭, D♭, E𝄫, F♭, G♭, A♭
   B♭, D, F, A♭, C♯, E

Loop Through Chord Changes

$ kord loop -b 120 "Em7b5@3^2" "A7b13@3!" "D-maj7@3^2" "G7@3" "Cmaj7@3^2"

Guess A Chord

$ kord guess C F# D# A
Cdim
   fully diminished (whole first), diminished seventh, whole/half/whole diminished
   C, D, E♭, F, G♭, A♭, B𝄫, B
   C, E♭, G♭, B𝄫
Cm(♭5)(add6)
   minor
   C, D, E♭, F, G, A♭, B♭
   C, E♭, G♭, A
$ kord guess C G Bb F#5 F
C7(♯11)(sus4)
   dominant sharp 11, lydian dominant, lyxian, major with sharp four and flat seven
   C, D, E, F♯, G, A, B♭
   C, F, G, B♭, F♯
Cm7(♯11)(sus4)
   minor 7, dorian, second mode of major scale, major with flat third and flat seven
   C, D, E♭, F, G, A, B♭
   C, F, G, B♭, F♯
$ kord guess E3 C4 Eb4 F#4 A#4 D5 D4
Cm9(♭5)(add2)/E
   half diminished, locrian, minor seven flat five, seventh mode of major scale, major scale starting one half step up
   C, D, E♭, F, G♭, A♭, B♭
   E, C, D, E♭, G♭, B♭, D

Guess Notes / Chord From Audio

Using the deterministic algorithm only:

$ kord analyze mic

Notes: C3 E3 G3
C@3
   major
   C, D, E, F, G, A, B
   C, E, G

Using the ML algorithm:

$ kord ml infer mic

Notes: C3 E3 G3
C@3
   major
   C, D, E, F, G, A, B
   C, E, G

Library Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
kord = "*" #choose a version

Examples

use klib::known_chord::KnownChord;
use klib::modifier::Degree;
use klib::note::*;
use klib::chord::*;

// Check to see what _kind_ of chord this is.
assert_eq!(Chord::new(C).augmented().seven().known_chord(), KnownChord::AugmentedDominant(Degree::Seven));
use crate::klib::base::Parsable;
use klib::note::*;
use klib::chord::*;

// Parse a chord from a string, and inspect the scale.
assert_eq!(Chord::parse("Cm7b5").unwrap().scale(), vec![C, D, EFlat, F, GFlat, AFlat, BFlat]);
use klib::note::*;
use klib::chord::*;

// From a note, create a chord, and look at the chord tones.
assert_eq!(C.into_chord().augmented().major7().chord(), vec![C, E, GSharp, B]);

JS Usage

The npm package is available here.

First, load the module as you would any other ES module.

import init, { KordNote, KordChord } from 'kordweb/klib.js';

// Run `init` once.
await init();

Then, you can use the library similarly as you would in Rust.

// Create a note.
const note = KordNote.parse('C4');

note.name(); // C4
note.octave(); // 4

// Create a chord.
const chord = KordChord.parse('C7#9');

chord.name(); // C7(♯9)
chord.chordString(); // C4 E4 G4 Bb5 D#5

// Easy chaining.
KordChord.parse('C7b9').withOctave(2).chord().map(n => n.name()); // [ 'C2', 'D♭2', 'E2', 'G2', 'B♭2' ]

// Build chords.
KordChord.parse('C').minor().seven().chord().map(n => n.name()); // [ 'C4', 'Eb4', 'G4', 'Bb4' ]

Feature Flags

The library and binary both support various feature flags. Of most important note are:

  • default = ["cli", "analyze", "audio"]
  • cli: enables the CLI features, and can be removed if only compiling the library.
  • analyze = ["analyze_mic", "analyze_file"]: enables the analyze subcommand, which allows for analyzing audio data (and the underlying library features).
    • analyze_mic: enables the analyze mic subcommand, which allows for analyzing audio from a microphone (and the underlying library features).
    • analyze_file: enables the analyze file subcommand, which allows for analyzing audio from a file (and the underlying library features).
      • analyze_file_mp3: enables the features to analyze mp3 files.
      • analyze_file_aac: enables the features to analyze aac files.
      • analyze_file_alac: enables the features to analyze alac files.
  • ml = ["ml_train", "ml_infer"]: enables the ml subcommand, which allows for training and inferring with ML (and the underlying library features).
    • ml_train: enables the ml train subcommand, which allows for training ML models (and the underlying library features).
    • ml_infer: enables the ml infer subcommand, which allows for inferring with ML models (and the underlying library features).

      • NOTE: Adding the analyze_mic feature flag will enable the ml infer mic subcommand, which allows for inferring with ML models from a microphone.

      • NOTE: Adding the analyze_file feature flag will enable the ml infer file subcommand, which allows for inferring with ML models from a file.

    • ml_gpu: enables the features to use a GPU for ML training.
  • wasm: enables the features to compile to wasm.
  • plot: enables the features to plot data.
