Jem Drum Mapping Toolkit
The drum gesture mapping toolkit developed alongside the AIMC 2026 paper. Download the pack below, then follow the installation and tutorial videos to get started.
Note: I made all the videos for Jem after our study ended, so there might be some comments that are specific to us – but otherwise does a full run through of the current toolkit and what we used to make the album!

What's not in the pack yet
There are a couple missing pieces – coming soon.
- TODO: Genetic algorithm for timbre remapping running in Ableton with M4L. Check out our NIME paper from last year, which includes a Max package for running timbre remapping with synths.
- TODO: Training continuous models directly in Ableton with M4L. For now, you have to use the Python code (below) to create new continuous models.
