Symbolic Composer is the largest and most popular music language available for computers -- now with powerful VRML 3D Macros, that let the composer fuse together music and architecture.

Symbolic Composer totals over 1000 music algorithms suitable for modern, dance, classic, electronic, ambient, contemporary and experimental styles.

It covers 300 microtonal world-music and theoretical scales, and (probably) all chords and scales used in the last 500 years of music history.

Symbolic Composer is a massive collection of computer music and research algorithms packed in an efficient and interactive development environment.

Symbolic Composer's rich music molecule dictionary enables the composer to extend musical capabilities, helping to realize the maximum power of studio investments spent on synthesizers and sequencers.

Besides providing the composer a toolbox of traditional composition tools Symbolic Composer also enables the composer to explore advanced fractal and chaos mathematics for determining compositional elements -- right out of box, or defining custom algorithms with industry-standard Common Lisp language.

Features:

В· Context-Free Scoring Language allows composing music of any style and complexity.
В· Historical & Contemporary Music Functions supply the classic compositional power-tools.
В· Mathematical Generators & Processors provide fractals, chaos and number-theory utilities.
В· Symbolic Generators & Processors allow recursion, l-systems and fibonacci sequences.
В· DNA/RNA Processors enable to turn genetic data into music.
В· Programmable Neurons supply added intelligence to instrumentation
В· Programmable Phrase Library allows sequential medoly, drum and chord pattern generation.
В· Build-in Hyper-Documentation helps using the system.
В· Standard MIDI file output enables to use any sequencer, hard disk editor, sound module, or software synthesizer for playback & final assembly.
В· 300 chords, scales & microtonals provide complete coverage of tonalities used in our planet - and you are naturally free to discover your own.
В· Over 1000 Algorithms included, free connection and nesting between algorithms for maximum creative freedom.
В· Integrated Lisp Language allows to write own functions and documents.
В· Plug-in Expansion Architecture helps to distribute own developments to other users.
В· VRML2 macros extend SCOM and Lisp algorithms, and allow generation of 3-Dimensional Virtual Worlds based on musical parameters. VRML2 is the standard of 3D Web (Cyberspace) and is included in the official MPEG4 Standard.
В· Free Score Library templates to start with.


Limitations:

В· Symbolic Composer uses a personal keycode that unlocks the software for full operation. The user can make backup copies of the authorized software. In Demo Mode most functions are cancelled.
