Claude Opus 5.5 composes synth-baroque track with visualizer

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A Reddit user shared an experience where they prompted Claude, specifically Opus 5.5, to compose a piece of music blending Bach-style canons with modern synthesizers. The AI generated "Contrapunctus Acidus," a hardcore synth baroque track, and even created a visualizer for it. The user detailed the process, noting that Claude wrote the score as a program, verified counterpoint with a script, and rendered the audio using a FunDSP synth engine, iteratively refining it based on measurements as it cannot hear.
