Subject: Music Editing
Status: RO

There was an article in the BYTE magazine recently about music
editing.  They described a system where you could "play" on
some sort of keyboard and the electronics would determine pitch
and duration.  Then there would be a pseudo-score created.  Since
we might not play exactly right, there would be funny times, melody
not emphasized, and phrases and dynamics needing to be added.

There was some fancy editing available.

I believe that stuff was fairly expensive but I don't remember for
sure.  There might be some simpler/cheaper stuff mentioned also.
Anyway, it might be a pointer to get started.  My suggestion is
to try back 2-5 months, maybe a little longer.  Don't go back more
than one year because I'm sure I saw it relatively recently;  I may
not have been looking at a current issue.

Good luck.

Maurice

I know that the folks that make the Synclavier synthesizer, New
England Digital, of White River Junction, VT make something they
call Script, I think.  This allows you to play on the keyboard
and the notes you play are posted to a document.  You can
then move them around and have the synthesizer play them back to
you.  I don't know much more, I just had it demonstrated to me
onced and was very impressed!
