What the publisher says
From the Music Studio repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
MCP Music Studio
Two-mode creative music studio for AI: scored composition (ABC notation with sheet music) and live performance (Strudel live coding with TidalCycles). Interactive UI renders inline in Claude Desktop, claude.ai, and other MCP clients.
One continuous live set through the widget — every section a hot-swapped re-evaluation on the same clock. Full video: 16:9 1080p60 · 3:4 for phones. Made with dev/perform.html and an OBS Browser Source (see scripts/showcase/).
Quick Start — No Install Required
Paste this URL into any MCP client that supports remote servers:
https://mcp-music-studio.linxule.workers.dev/mcpClaude Desktop / claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → Add Connector → paste the URL above → done.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http music-studio https://mcp-music-studio.linxule.workers.dev/mcpThat's it — ask Claude to play a song or create a beat.
What You Get
Scored Composition (ABC Notation)
Write sheet music → see it rendered → hear it played with multi-instrument audio.
- 8 style presets — rock, jazz, bossa, waltz, march, reggae, folk, classical — one parameter adds drums + bass + chord accompaniment
- All 128 General MIDI instruments — named and fuzzy-matched ("sax" → Soprano Sax); the result text says what it actually resolved to when that isn't what you asked for
- Visual sheet music — notes highlight as they play
- Streaming render — sheet music appears as the AI types
- Edit in place — open the ABC source pane in the widget, fix a bar, re-render without another tool call
- Real transposition — transpose rewrites the notation and the key signature, so the printed score matches what plays
- Swing and count-in — swing is the share of the beat given to its first half (50 = straight, 66 = triplet, 75 = max; ≤50 is no swing), drumIntro adds up to 8 bars of count-in from the style's drum kit
- Selectable sound banks — FluidR3 (default), MusyngKite (fuller), or a lightweight dry bank, switched live from the toolbar
- WAV download — export audio as WAV files directly from the UI
- MIDI download — export a standard MIDI file straight from the score, no playback needed first. It is the score: abcjs applies swing during playback only, so the exported file has none
- get-music-guide — 7 reference topics (instruments, drums, ABC syntax, arrangements, genres, styles, MIDI directives)
Live Performance (Strudel)
Write code → hear it play → edit in a live REPL.
