TABASCO
Dernière mise à jour :
TABASCO (tablature assisted composition) is a research project to develop digital tools to assist the composition and writing of guitar music.
The aim of the project is to develop algorithmic tools to assist the composition of guitar music in styles belonging to the field of western popular music (pop, rock, metal, jazz, chanson, etc.). The project is structured around 3 axes. The first aims to study the composition practices of guitarists, and in particular to evaluate the role of tablature notation software in this process. The second axis aims to experiment with and evaluate a variety of algorithmic approaches, mainly from machine learning, to assist with tasks that arise from time to time in the composition process. The third axis will involve implementing such algorithms as functionalities within tablature notation software.
The TABASCO project (2022 - 2027) is funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR-22-CE38-0001). It involves collaboration with the Arobas Music company, which produces the Guitar Pro software.
