In plain words
A small, simple music theory library written in C99 that provides core functionality for music-related programming projects. It offers basic tools for developers working with musical concepts and calculations. The library is designed to be lightweight and straightforward, making it accessible for those integrating music theory concepts into C-based applications.

char buf [ MAH_DISP_LEN ]; for ( int i = 0 ; i < scale . size ; i ++ ) { puts ( mah_write_note ( scale . notes [ i ], buf , MAH_DISP_LEN , NULL )); } See here for more! Gustav Mahler is one of my favourite composers; if you like the emotions of Wagner, and the ideas of Stravinsky, Mahler is the perfect middle ground! All his works have a flair of modernism that gives his emotional works a unique touch. You should definitely check him out, especially his Symphony No.5 in C# Minor, The Song of the Earth, and Symphony No.6 in A Minor. To compile, you can use cmake . Be sure to include the src and inc folders as folders to search for the source and header. For example, given example.c and…from github.com

Koelsynth – a simple FM synthesis library2023 · github.com · ▲58This is part of my journey on pybind11. I wrote a tiny FM Synthesis library in C++ and a Python wrapper for that using pybind11. There is a command-line piano app in the examples directory if you want to play with it. Here is the link: https://github.com/charstorm/koelsynth/tree/main/examples/si... My next target is to attach this to some kind of physics simulation - like a bunch of balls moving around in a box with some internal walls. When the ball hits certain trigger points, it produces the sound.

Modest – musical harmony library for Lua2025 · github.com · ▲76This is a project I've been building in my spare time over the past few months. It's a library that provides methods for working with musical harmony ‒ intervals, notes, chords. For example, it can parse almost any chord symbol (Fmaj7, CminMaj9, etc) and turn it into notes, or it can identify a chord from a given set of notes. I started this project with the idea of using formal grammar to parse chord symbols. I wanted to use it instead of a hand-written parser, which is the common approach among similar libraries. Lua caught my attention because of Lpeg, a Parsing Expression Grammar library…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Hello my name is Ben Ward for the past 3 years I have been remastering the financial game Wall Street Raider created by Michael Jenkins originally on DOS in 1986. It has been a rough journey but I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I just recently redid the website and thought maybe the full story of how this project came to be would interest you all. Thank you for reading.
