MUSIC V

Actions Status

This is Max Mathew's MUSIC V synthesis program, prepared by Bill Schottstaed for gfortran, with further additions and fixes by Victor Lazzarini.

Building

To build MUSIC V you will need to install a Fortran compiller such as GFortran, has been tested and the sources are kept up to date with it. You will also need CMake and a C compiler installation.

With these installed, build MUSIC V:

cmake -B build
cmake --build build

Installing

Installation is controlled by the CMake option CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.

The command

cmake --install build

will install the software to ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin. Depending on the local admin permissions might be need to perform installation.

Running

MUSIC V is based on a 3-pass set of commands (which take no arguments):

  1. pass1 takes a score file named 'score' and produce 'pass1.data'
  2. pass2 takes a 'pass1.data' file and produces 'pass2.data'
  3. pass3 takes a 'pass2.data' file and produces 'snd.raw'

'snd.raw' is a mono, 44.1KHz, 32-bit float with your system's endianess. A utility, raw2wav is provided to convert this to a RIFF-Wave format file.

The music5 command is also included. This is a driver program that calls the three passes and produces a RIFF Wave format soundfile.

music5 <scorefile> <soundfile>

Since "music5" calls the other commands, it is important that these are all found in the same directory.

Known Issues

  • The FLT unit generator is missing.
  • PLF routines cannot always be directly added to pass1.f because the read1 routine has been disposed of. They may need to be integrated in the main program.
