ScoreDraft is a simple music/singing synthesizer that provides a Python based score authoring interface.
ScoreDraft is a music/singing synthesizer that provides a Python based score authoring interface.
Currently, it includes the following synthesizer engines:
The framework is open and can be easily extended.
A PCM Player is provided to playback and visualize generated waveforms.
A more sophisticated visualizer "Meteor" is provided to visualize the notes/beats/syllables where the music is generated from.
The following example shows how easily a piece of musical sound can be generated using ScoreDraft.
import ScoreDraft
from ScoreDraft.Notes import *
doc=ScoreDraft.Document()
seq=[do(),do(),so(),so(),la(),la(),so(5,96)]
doc.playNoteSeq(seq, ScoreDraft.Piano())
doc.mixDown('twinkle.wav')
Starting from version 1.0.3, ScoreDraft now supports a YAML based input format, which looks like:
# test.yaml
score:
staffs:
-
relative: c''
instrument: Piano()
content: |
c4 c g g a a g2
where in the 'content' part, LilyPond syntax can be used to input notes. The following shell command can be used to generate a wav:
# scoredraft -wav twinkle.wav test.yaml
For GUI editor, see ScoreDraftEditor
For more detailed introduction and demos see: https://fynv.github.io/ScoreDraft/
ScoreDraft is now available from PyPi. Windows x64/Linux x64 supported.
# pip install scoredraft
Known issue: For Linux, it is only tested on Ubuntu 20.04. It is known to be not working on Ubuntu 18.04.
Build-time dependencies:
CMake 3.0+
Python3
CUDA(optional): To build without CUDA, disable the CMake option "USE_CUDA"
FreeType:
GLFW:
PortAudio:
Build process:
# mkdir build
# cd build
# cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../Test
# make
# make install
Run-time dependencies:
To avoid causing troubles, ScoreDraft now only includes a minimal set of instrumental/percussion samples to support the tests. The PyPi package doesn't include any of these.
ScoreDraft indexes the samples and banks by searching specific directory where the python script is started.
Directory InstrumentSamples: wav instrument samples
Directory PercussionSamples: wav percussion samples
Directory SF2: SoundFont2 bank files
Directory UTAUVoice: UTAU voice banks (as sub-directories)
Users need to help themselves to download and organize extra samples and voicebanks. Here are just some recommandations, which is what I do at my place.
Instrument/Percussion wav samples:

ScoreDraft is now formally available under MIT license.
ScoreDraft was my first Python project. There were some severe limitations for pythonic packaging and releasing. As a result, there was no formal release before the Nov 2021 refactoring (version 1.0.0).
SingingGadgets was a refactoring attempt in 2018, which only partially solves the issues.
After the Nov 2021 refactoring, ScoreDraft have all the benefits of both SingingGadgets and the old ScoreDraft. Therefore, the SingingGadgets project is now closed.
