You have made my dreams come true. Wow, some of the most exciting things I have seen on HackerNews in the last decade have shown up just in the last year. Thank you for building this! What did you guys use? Tensorflow? Any chance it will be Open Sourced so we can learn from it?

I can play instruments and I know my music theory. Sometimes I am just looking for easier and other ways to express myself. This I think would be welcomed by many just like the vocoder was.
This is really exciting — as someone who spends far too much time messing around making electronic music, I was thinking about how cool it would be to have a voice-to-instrument converter. After all, if a computer can create the sounds of an orchestra or band with just your vocal beatboxing / humming chops and a sprinkle of machine learning, then that's all you need to make the next hit-song, right? Well — not trying…
The fella behind imitone ( https://imitone.com/ ) has been grinding away at the details of this stuff for a while. I haven't checked in on it for a while but I was a kickstarter backer. The last version I loaded up and played with was pretty great.
Turn this into an app for ipad with instruments and you have me as a client. Turn it into a plugin for Logic/Ableton etc and I would be willing to pay monthly for that. I have been wanting this for years. I can play instruments and I know my music theory. Sometimes I am just looking for easier and other ways to express myself.

Thank you... your comment was very inspiring :). I'm considering to add a way to download the MIDI file, that's very low effort and would be of some use in the short-term.
As I said. I would buy it and I would probably turn it into a hosted service if I were you as you probably need the cloud to do some of the computation?
Anyway. If anything else I think it would have a future as a plugin or service. And for a lot of novice music enthusiasts it would be a great little ipad/tablet app.

Yeah that would be amazing. I am litterally working on a song where I would love to play around with ryhtm a little bit. As I do a pretty good human beat box I woule love to be able to explore a couple of things there. As I said.

However, we thought we would need much more work to make a real product, and we stopped working on it.
I'm really considering making a webapp for a simpler use case as you suggest.

We studied imitone before working on Reedom — it's a great and inspiring project. The approach and use cases are slightly different. The main difference is the realtime: imitone mainly focuses on realtime, while we didn't see much value in that. Our real goal was to allow the user to create complete songs, using loops created with Reedom. We had an iOS prototypal app for that, but we didn't get so far.

We had an app on the appstore for a while, but it was a prototype and a different use case. The idea was to let the user create loops — you can see an example here https://www.dropbox.com/s/03q02cdllsry2az/musiqueness.mov?dl... .

Make a webapp at least, allow me to export some useful format for logic.
Then you can work on other ways to use the voice to inform the sounds and other things. As I said. Think about it like VocoderMidi instrument/sequenzer. Something really useful can come out of that IMO.
Not totally related, but I've thought for sure time that a similar technique could be applied for automatic subtitles synchronisation on media with external subtitles. The system would read the sentences, automatically match it to the relevant segment of the audio track and adjust the timing accordingly.
