SCOM Legacy Versions

Symbolic Composer 2.0.1 for Atari

This Symbolic Composer release dates back to 1990's and runs on Windows under Atari Emulator using the IBM360-based MetaComco Lisp from UK, and it is also possible to run it on a Mac using a PC emulator. It provides the user who has a little of patience setting up the emulation environment a lot of interesting possibilities to explore on algorithmic music composition (they used this cracked version in the 90's to score some wicked underground techno tracks, we've heard).

The package is prepared by Trond Einar Garmo in Norwegian University of Science and Technology/Faculty of Arts/Department of Musicology/Department of Art and Media Studies. KCS Sequencer and TextPad editor are needed for fluent MIDI playback and editing score files. The read me documents describe where to get them and how to set up the environment. Included are also SCOM Atari function help-system as clip files and Windows Help-file.
Documents (pretty old..last printed manual around 1995-96 before the SCOM Hyperhelp was developed)
