# first, install manim from conda-forge channel
conda install -c conda-forge manim
# then install polybeat from pypi
pip install polybeat
# step 1: import module
from polybeat import play
# step 2:
# primary usage
play([3,4,12])
# advanced usage
play(
rhythms=[3,4,6,12],
custom_order=[0,1,3,2],
# colors=[RED,YELLOW,BLUE,GREEN],
sounds=['kick_drum','open_conga','side_stick','low_bongo'],
volumes=[0,-2,-6,-4],
cycle_time=1.8,
dot_radius=0.16,
width_range=[2.5,3.5],
preview=True,
)
custom_order
is None by default, which equals to [3,2,1,0] (reverse order) in this case.
colors
should be a list of variables supported by manim or hex number strings, e.g. ['#3ec1d3', '#f6f7d7', '#ff9a00', '#ff165d'].
sounds
can be paths to custom audio files, or just leave it default.
cycle_time
has an effect on speed.
preview
means you want the video to auto play or not after rendering.
It's safe to use default parameters when the number of beats is 4 or less
