This is a WWW page made by an FTP script that lists all the electronic music software I've been able to find on the net. The emphasis is on Unix software, because that's what I want, but there are DOS and Mac stuff in there, too. There is an occasional oddball, like DSP software, some MIDI files, etc. But don't expect to find MIDIfiles, Synth Patches, MOD files, Soundfiles, etc. There may be a few in there, but only because the site also has emusic software. Sources have been mailing lists, archie and gopher searches, etc. The page is quite large (>100K) so I have a preliminary warning page and two versions avaliable - a gzipped text list and a hypertext list. To be honest, the text listing is probably preferable, because if you plan to FTP several files from a busy site, you probably shouldn't be doing it with ftp:// URL's - your browsers logs in and out for every fetch and you may have trouble getting in on one of them. That said, checkout: As long as I'm here, I'll push my WWW music page as well: Listen at your own risk - that page has some pretty weird sounds. -- Jim Hurley email: hurleyj@arachnaut.org | Electronic Music, Aquarium http://www.webcom.com/~hurleyj/home.html | topics, assorted weirdnesses Arachnaut's Lair
