Dr. Awesome's name is Bjoern Lynne and he's living here in Norway (in
Oslo to be more precise). He does have composed a great deal of music
for the Amiga, but he now uses most MIDI-stuff. I don't know if he has a
Internet connection, but I can ask him thru my local BBS system. If you
want to contact him, I can forward some mail thru the local BBS-system.

Greetings to everyone out there currently doing work in music and 
computers!

I am a student of Church Music, nearing completion of my studies, 
and am interested in pursuing the use of computers in the 
_analysis_ of previously written music, and the "composition" of 
new music based upon rules found in the music analyzed.  

Along these lines, I have several questions:

1) Most important, what work has already done and by whom?  I 
would really like to get my hands on some source code if it's 
possible, but even executables would be great.  Have any such 
things been placed on the open market?  Is anyone out there doing 
work on the subject?  Journals give _some_ information about 
people doing this sort of work.  Hopefully, some of these people
are on the net, too.  eAdresses or SnailMail would be greatly 
appreciated.

2) Where can I find the _results_ of this work, along with 
binaries and source?  (I have access to many different OS's, 
so... if it runs on anything, basically, I'd like to take a look 
at it.  :)  I'd love to see what "insights" (sic) computers have 
come up with in the music of Bach,  Mozart, Palestrina, Lassus, 
Beethoven, ad infinitum.  Where can I get data?

3) I'm about to purchase a scanner, primarily for text, but would 
also like to scan scores.  Is there any software out there that 
is capable of reading printed music and writing it in the various 
computer formats?

Just for your info., I am quite serious about this whole thing.  
Once I'm finished with my current degree in music, I'll be going 
to Iowa State to study Physics (probably with a real edge toward 
that of sound) and Computer Engineering.  I would be interested 
in doing software/hardware development in collaboration with 
others around the net.  Right now, though, I simply need 
information, and lots of it, on what's being done, where people 
are going, what people's areas of study/interest are, etc.  I may 
as well mention right now that I'm not in this for profit.  I am 
simply interested in the advancement of "classical" music in a 
time and society that in many ways is directed completely against 
it.

The first stop should probably be Deta S. Davis' bibliography of 
computer applications in music published by A&R Editions [there's
an update to the 1989 volume out now as well], where you'll find an
entire section on just that topic. There should be plenty there [and
sources from *outside* the Computer Music Journal as well - those can
be harder to locate] to keep you busy. A&R Editions has also recently
published David Cope's book on using computers for stylistic analysis.

Your library should have them, or interlibrary loan can find them.

If you are asking for something that will transcribe actual sound waves
into notation, Lime will not do this (I've seen a few programs that
will give feedback on the screen of notes and pitches played, but not
notation).  Lime will transcribe MIDI signals that are played in real
time at the piano or by another sequencer.  The signal can be from the
same machine using the Patchbay (as in Pro composer to Lime -- though I
haven't done this) or another machine such as Adagio on a PC (I have
done this).  

As for a true aural to notation package it would be difficult to 
do a program that transcribes more than one line.  How could it 
distinguish between two notes; C2 and E4, and one note with a 
strong overtone; C2 (E4 as the fourth (?) harmonic)?  For some 
reason I find a little solace in the notion that there is still a
skill (aural dictation) that requires a little work and practice.  We
get a lot of applications here with compositions that are nothing more
than someone tinkering at the keyboard with a notation program running.
It's depressing.

Hi, can anyone help with a problem a friend (in the loosest posible terms)
of mine is having with cakewalk pro - problem described below :-

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a Roland JV-30 synth, 386 PC, Windows 3.1, Cakewalk Pro for Windows
(1.02 Engine), and SoundBlaster Pro Ver2 card.  Everything works great
including embedded Wave files, except for one.  I can't get a dump from the
synth to complete within the 'system exclusive' options.  Whether I start the
dump from the synth, or request a dump from Cakewalk - it won't work.

The byte count increments in Cakewalk, and the JV-30 says it has completed the
dump.  But when I select 'Done' in Cakewalk, the message "Incomplete sysx
message - Discarding received data" appears.  It doesn't matter how big the
dump is 512 or 64k bytes, and I've even played around with the receive 
buffers.  The support I am getting from the UK distributor is non-existent so 
can anyone help please ???

    I have the same problem with a Korg M1R. Twelve Tone is aware of 
the problem and are checking into it. I have a workaround for the M1 
that may work for you. Turn to page 150-151 of the manual. There's a 
referance to a TTSEQ.INI file. What you want to do is set 
SysxReceiveBuffers=2 and SysxReceiveBuffersSize=50000 (you can try 
a smaller number but use a number that's greater than the largest sysx 
dump that you expect). Let me know if this works. I can post this 
problem directly to Twelve Tone on your behalf if you wish. Good luck.

There's a MOD player for Sun computers available on nic.funet.fi.
Can't remember the directory, perhaps something like
mod/players/SPARC. BTW: is there a newer version of the program? It is
very good. Never expected to find such a program on the net (I mean,
for the Sun). Are there any other players for workstations? IRIS
Indigos, for example? Many thanx in advance for any info.

Hi,

This just in:

	The problem with 1.1a, b, and c originates from the way the
	system was set up.  There is a file called "color quickdraw"
	that users usually don't put in their system if they don't
	have color monitors.  This is what was causing problems.
	If you put this into your system 1.1a - c should work.  

	We are now working on a version (1.1d) which should
	compensate for the absence of this utility since it isn't
	obvious in the instructions that it should be installed even
	if you don't have a color monitor.  It should be in the ftp 
	folder this afternoon or tomorrow.

I may speak for our group of the Computer Science Department in 
Karlsruhe (Germany), where we have a project running about 
musical analysis with neural nets upun music in the style of
Bach,Reger and Schuetz.The program is called Harmonet, because
it analyses the structures of the counterpoint of a choral, and
then finds a counterpoint of a new melody in the style of that
particular componist.The output is given in a midi-file so that
we can listen to it on a digital piano. The progam Harmonet is 
indeed quite large and written in Lisp that runs on our Sun Sparc.
Only a few of us understand how to let it run. But there are 
existing papers (in German) that are describing the theory of 
preprocessing the music for the neural net (some small papers
are in English).As the principle is very flexible the style
could be very different, but we are still working on it...

Another project follows a more classical aproach. It handles
the music of Mozart and "composes" variations upon his music.
The approach I call "classical" because the concept bases on
"Grammars".


------------------------

Does any other group work on similar projects ?
That would interest me.What I can give is a probe
of our work in form of MIDI - Files on request.

you more, when I find the time)
