Press Release: Symbolic
Composer 6.3 Released For Windows
|
2010, NOV 18 --- SCOM Mac
now
super-charged on Windows? Yes, its true! We are proud
to introduce you the latest version of Symbolic Composer 6.3
Professional For the Windows, which now includes all the same
leading-edge musical algorithms as the latest SCOM Mac release + some
more!
Symbolic Composer 6.3 Professional is one of the largest high-level
music language available. SCOM 6.3 Win has a complete coverage of the
world-music tunings, and its libraries cover past 500 years of
compositional traditions.
SCOM 6.3 Win revamps the interface, bringing in more fluent
menus, corrected manual, extended documentation, standard
copy/paste, full breakable multitasking, full Listener, custom
desktop placements and detailed and user-extendable System Index menus.
SCOM 6.3 Win also implements better-focused Go menu, adds up Related
menu that helps finding related functions, and comes now with handy
Snapshots feature, which allow to quickly recover all the files of an
earlier project.
Release Information
SCOM 6.3 Release Summary
Symbolic Composer 6.3 Professional kept us busy for a couple of years
with the SCOM Mac Porting Project. For this user-base SCOM had to
behave like a smooth Mac app should, which indeed took a long time to
realize.
As a result we are now able to port the innovations back into the SCOM
Windows with additional features, and can now present this "mac-nified"
SCOM to the Windows community.
This document lists some of the main changes new to SCOM 6.0 Windows
users. For SCOM 5 Win users there is even more - and an upgrade is
strongly suggested (an offer to upgrade at the old price is made
available til the end of 2010 for SCOM 5-6 users, and the upgrade is
free if you purchased SCOM 6 Win between June-November this year).
Documentation
- Re-organized Menu Structure (easier to browse and locate functions).
- Éxtended Documentation (added special functions used in Score
Lib scores, now fully covering and correct).
- Extended Essential Lisp (Lisp forms mentioned in the documentation
are now covered, too).
- Extended and Customized System Index (quick browsing of all the main
SCOM categories + define your own menus).
Interface
- Output folder (launch SCOM MIDI files from System Index).
- Easy Desktop Placement (memorizes Window size and placement).
- Scrolling Grapher (allows bigger graphs to be scrolled).
- Listener (fixes high-light problems and auto-scrolling).
- Launch Web Pages (composition-related sites, Lisp Docs and SCOM User
Group integrated in the Menus).
Workspace Management
- Improved Desktop Restore (restore now also graphs, memorize index
menu selection, places last Editor on top, easier to continue later).
- Snapshots (make a snapshot of current windows, and restore them
later, quick project recovery, easy to switch between larger projects).
Editor
- Def Evaluation (quickly evaluate a command in docs, or score without
selecting it at first).
- Indent Selection (indents selection with a command, custom
indentation also possible).
- Copy/Paste (standard paste/write over selection).
- Close Other Editors (close unrelated documents to clutter up screen).
- Hide/Show Windows (access Windows desktop).
Menus
- Go Menu (extended set of SCOM commands covered, quick jump to
document subtitles and Lisp forms).
- Related Menu (shows related documents and their categories, answers
the question "where am I?").
- Intuitive save-path (save & open uses the topped editor path
below, which is the mostly likely candidate to work with).
- Null-Compiler added to Eval Buf command (clears Class System bindings
between songs, no strange errors due score overlapping).
- Selection-based commands and keyboard equivalents added to the menus.
Error Handling
- Terminal Blocking (error-trapping spots errors before, minimized
Terminal Window messages, more smooth SCOM operation).
- Freeze Blocking (all processes including searches now run
concurrently and are stoppable, no halting).
Functions
- Advanced Tonality Processing (sorting, mixing and compatibility
between tonality functions works now transparent, re-organized Tonality
Menus).
- Modulations (find the best solutions between transitions of given
scales).
- Positional Chords (for commercial/film styles).
- Enrichment Rules (emulate Pop-Music chord-voicing, extend position
chords into chromaticism).
- Tonality Analysis (analyze scale and chord progressions, find the
best candidates with minimum or maximum differences and energy).
- Tonality Symbols (attach notes to a symbol, and realize tonality
symbols with SCOM's symbol generators, or with manual entries).
- Tonality Library Notelists (define tonality library entries with
ad-hook notelists).
- Recursive Section Handling (control generative section contents).
- Number Theory Additions (number sequence-generators added + web
interface to integer sequences provided for more).
- Cosmix Toolbox (many additions, requires manual tune-ups due http
protocol in LW win is not compatible with the websites used).
- Added Conversion and Supplementary Functions (in many categories).
Symbolic Composer 6.3 Professional is one of the most advanced and
largest music composition language available. Included is full SCOM
Reference Manual with detailed examples and tutorials, completely
covering all musical styles with a huge musico-pedia of algorithms,
chords and tunings for the experimental composer.
Symbolic Composer 6.3 Professional runs native on the Windows XP and
Windows 7, and it is virtual-savvy with Wine, VMware and VirtualBox on
the Linux, too.
"There's evidence that MIDI
interaction seriously constrains conceptual
reflection. Symbolic Composer steps forward providing composers with an
environment for thinking, experimenting and modelling complete
multi-orchestrated works without the confusion of performance data.
Symbolic Composer is the closest equivalent to paper-based composing
there is, only far, far more powerful", says composer Nigel Morgan (UK).
