The AI Composition Sketchpad

Exploring REAPER-Perplexity Integration for Music Creation

Watch a proof-of-concept demonstration where Python code bridges REAPER with Perplexity AI to generate musical notation in real-time. Rather than replacing human creativity, this integration shows how AI can serve as a compositional assistant - helping with rapid prototyping, exploring harmonic variations, and automating basic musical structures.

For composers and producers looking to enhance their workflow, this opens up exciting possibilities in creative collaboration with AI.

This brief demo generates an 8-measure piece in D major, laying a foundation for more complex musical interactions between human creativity and AI assistance.

Prompt:
'role': 'system',

'content': 'You are a music notation expert. Provide notation in MusicXML format. Do not include any explanations, comments, or Markdown formatting.'

},

{

'role': 'user',

'content': '''Generate a MusicXML for a Grand Staff in the Key of D, 4/4 time, with 8 measures. Each measure should contain:

1. Bass clef: A single whole note (4 beats) as the bass note.

2. Treble clef: A whole note (4 beats) root inversion triad block chord.

Do not include chord names, only show the notes.'''
