Lauaunching Symbolic Composer 6.2 For the Mac
SCOM IdentSymbolic Composer 6.2 is the largest and most popular music language available for computers -- now with powerful tonality processors, that let the composer take the advantage of the latest trends in music making.

Symbolic Composer 6.2 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

• Complete Chord, Scale and Microtonal libraries, and you are free to discover your own ones, too.

• Mathematical Generators & Processors provide advanced fractals, chaos and number-theory functions.

• Symbolic Generators & Processors allow Recursion, L-systems, Fibonacci, and other special solutions.

• Programmable Neurons supply added intelligence to your instrumentation.

• Programmable Phrase Library allows sequential drum and chording pattern generation.

• Standard MIDI file output. This makes SCOM a perfect partner  no matter of the software and hardware you are working with.

• Build-in HyperHelp & Search helps using the system.

• Music Language, that allows composing music of any style and complexity.

• Historical & Contemporary Music functions supply the classic compositional tools.

• Over 1000 Algorithms included, each freely combinable to each other for exponential creative freedom.

System Requirements
 
Macintosh Tiger/SnowLeopard,  2-16 GB RAM
Windows 2-16 GB RAM

Authorization

SCOM runs first on Demo Mode, which cancels most functions. Full interface and documentation can be browsed. Authorization restores full functionality.






Composer Comments:


"I love SCOM because it is so pure."

"It's really the most wonderful tool I have ever seen for music composition."

"SCOM steps beyond notation and playing skills, like no other software can do."

"SCOM is highly suggested tool to teach and study music theory."

"I don't want alternatives."

"Exciting"

“Symbolic Composer was one of the first systems that I encountered that explored the art of algorithmic composing interactively. The system functions are selected from hierarchical menus and pasted on the editor, so it’s a completely different approach to musical compositione. It’s like composing music from one’s DNA structure.”, Composer Richard Devine.

"Ingenious"



"Nowadays, symmetries are widely used in musical composition, for instance in the various transformation tools of sequencers, and explicitly in the author‚s prestor (see chapter 49) and in Opcode‚s MAX or in music software with fractal composition tools as realized by Mesias Maiguashca [220] or by the ingenious Symbolic Composer software",  Mazzola G., Author of Topos Of Music (If the direct link has changed due publisher, search the title at Springeronline

"Wonderful"



"I wish to thanks people that have contributed in important way to the creation of this book:
   All the developers of the wonderful algorithmic composition software Symbolic Composer, that I have used for the composition of the exercises - and Douglas R. Hofstadter for the beauty of his ideas on the perception, and parallels to artificial intelligence", Claudio Martini, Author Of I Pattern Automutanti
