A Progressive-Adaptive Music Generator (PAMG): An Approach to Interactive Procedural(…)
summary
PAMG is an algorithmic system that generates continuous game music in real-time generation using Max7-style agents for Melody/Harmony/Percussion/Orchestration agents, an XY-pad of corner presets that interpolate styles, and primarily sample playback (not full synthesis) to keep CPU and storage low. A Trial Game compares PAMG to clip‑based implementations and student ratings show PAMG preferred over clip-based on average though ANOVA finds no significant effect; tests are small, subject to priming, and the prototype aims at a Wwise/VST integration.
