Symbolic Music Generation with Diffusion Models

Supplementary code release for our work Symbolic Music Generation with Diffusion Models.

Installation

All code is written in Python 3 (Anaconda recommended). To install the dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

A copy of the Magenta codebase is required for access to MusicVAE and related components. Installation instructions can be found on the Magenta public repository. You will also need to download pretrained MusicVAE checkpoints. For our experiments, we use the 2-bar melody model.

Datasets

We use the Lakh MIDI Dataset to train our models. Follow these instructions to download and build the Lakh MIDI Dataset.

To encode the Lakh dataset with MusicVAE, use scripts/generate_song_data_beam.py:

python scripts/generate_song_data_beam.py \
  --checkpoint=/path/to/musicvae-ckpt \
  --input=/path/to/lakh_tfrecords \
  --output=/path/to/encoded_tfrecords

To preprocess and generate fixed-length latent sequences for training diffusion and autoregressive models, refer to scripts/transform_encoded_data.py:

python scripts/transform_encoded_data.py \
  --encoded_data=/path/to/encoded_tfrecords \
  --output_path =/path/to/preprocess_tfrecords \
  --mode=sequences \
  --context_length=32

Training

Diffusion

python train_ncsn.py --flagfile=configs/ddpm-mel-32seq-512.cfg

TransformerMDN

python train_mdn.py --flagfile=configs/mdn-mel-32seq-512.cfg

Sampling and Generation

Diffusion

python sample_ncsn.py \
  --flagfile=configs/ddpm-mel-32seq-512.cfg \
  --sample_seed=42 \
  --sample_size=1000 \
  --sampling_dir=/path/to/latent-samples

TransformerMDN

python sample_ncsn.py \
  --flagfile=configs/mdn-mel-32seq-512.cfg \
  --sample_seed=42 \
  --sample_size=1000 \
  --sampling_dir=/path/to/latent-samples

Decoding sequences

To convert sequences of embeddings (generated by diffusion or TransformerMDN models) to sequences of MIDI events, refer to scripts/sample_audio.py.

python scripts/sample_audio.py
  --input=/path/to/latent-samples/[ncsn|mdn] \
  --output=/path/to/audio-midi \
  --n_synth=1000 \
  --include_wav=True
