From tb303+@CMU.EDUMon Mar 20 13:41:18 1995 Date: Thu, 9 Feb 1995 13:13:45 -0500 (EST) From: Thomas C Butcher To: Electronica Mailing List Subject: Fwd: How to get CMT. Hello again- Since last night, I've received a surprising number of messages expressing interest in the CMU MIDI Toolkit. Rather than answer each one individually, I post this information to the list. Roger Dannenberg, the man behind the CMU MIDI Toolkit and several other interesting programs, forwarded the information on how to get the toolkit to me- so here it is. Also attached is a brief explanation of what the toolkit consists of. Enjoy! (thanks, Roger) ---------- Forwarded message begins here ---------- Return-path: Date: Thu, 9 Feb 1995 12:52:12 -0500 (EST) From: "Roger B. Dannenberg" 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. Tom Butcher [tb303+@cmu.edu] Orbitrecords [412.681.4112] OR-online :: http://www.hyperreal.com/music/labels/orbitrecords/
