Welcome to the release directory for the CMU MIDI Toolkit (CMT).

There are dos, mac, and sgi directories here with source code for these
systems.

cmtman.ps is a postscript manual for the CMU MIDI Toolkit.

CMT also runs on other systems, notably the Amiga.  There are a few Unix
ports, but none of these make any attempt to achieve reliable real-time
performance.  (There is, however, an SGI port that is not integrated into this 
release.  This has potential for reliable real-time performance.  The code
is in the sgi directory, courtesy of Peter Lunden, Royal Institute of
Technology, Dept. of Speech Communication and Music Acoustics.)

If you prefer floppies and a hard-copy manual, here's how to get it (it may
even be cheaper than your time to download, print, and install this stuff.)

The CMU MIDI Toolkit, v3.16
20 Aug 93

The CMU MIDI Toolkit (CMT) is a software package designed for experimental computer music education, composition, performance, and research.  CMT includes:
1) Adagio: a simple text-based music language, and software for recording, playing, and converting text to/from standard MIDI files.
2) A real-time programming environment, based on C, that is ideal for writing interactive music programs.
3) Applications: Conduct, EXget, EXput, Midi Monitor, and many programming examples.
CMT has three major attractions:  the flexibility of an open-ended design, the availability of source code, and low system cost.

CMT runs on the following systems:
	Macintosh (requires Apple MIDI Manager),
	DOS (requires MPU-401 compatible MIDI interface), and
	Amiga (requires Commodore CAMD drivers),
using the following compilers: Think C v5, Borland C++ v3, Turbo C++ for DOS v3, Microsoft C v7, Quick C v2.5, Lattice C v5 (Amiga), and Aztec C v5 (Amiga).

CMT is distributed  by  the  CMU  School of Computer Science.  For $30 to cover our costs, we will send you 3.5" DS/DD disks (including executables and source code) and an 100 page manual.  Please indicate your machine type.  Checks should be payable to Carnegie Mellon University, and correspondence should be addressed to Roger Dannenberg, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA 15213 USA.
 
CMT is also available via ftp from g.gp.cs.cmu.edu.  Start with the
file /usr/rbd/public/cmt/README.  N.B.: this is a protected machine.  You
CANNOT cd to and run ls in arbitrary directories.  You CAN cd directly
to /usr/rbd/public.
