Music generator with Markov Chain: A case study with Beatme Touchdown

At this modern time, music is regarded as a necessity in human life. With abundant amount of music circulating, composers still trying to create new musics while others are trying to get new musics to be heard. One of the attempt to fulfil that is to create a music generator called Beatme Touchdown. It aims to generate music for composer and for others at real-time. It reads MIDI file copliant to the Standard MIDI File (SMF) and outputs MIDI file too. The melody generator itself uses Markov Chain/Model. The process is to read existing musics as samples, the program will calculate parameters of those musics and with those calculated parameters, a melody will be generated.
