[comp.music] Nutation on the NeXT

ramsiri@blake.u.washington.edu (Enartloc Nhoj) (12/15/90)

After seeing the article earlier today 
regarding Nutation, i called Glendon and
had a long talk with him.

In contradiction to what the original post claimed,
the program is NOT a combination of NOTATOR and FINALE and
Digidesign SOundTools.. as a matter of fact.. 
it was Glendon's thesis.. not for sale.. no midi..
and only 75% standard notation.  

Very nice guy.. plans on continuing research 
after he graduates...

Doggone!  It was a really sharp looking program... Glendon's
"clone-and-move" approach to generating music symbols seemed quite
intuitive, also.  Wonder if there's any chance to convince him to put it out
on the archives?  Shouldn't be too hard to add some MIDI suport with the
MusicKit; he's got it synthesizing stuff using the DSP already.
