Music Kit  [hits=1 votes=1 rating=5.0] : The MusicKit V5.4 - The MusicKit is an object-oriented open-source software system for building music, sound, signal processing, and MIDI applications. It has been used in such diverse commercial applications as music sequencers, computer games, and document processors. Professors and students in academia have used the MusicKit in a host of areas, including music performance, scientific experiments, computer-aided instruction, and physical modeling. The MusicKit was the first to unify the MIDI and Music V paradigms, thus combining interaction with generality. (Music V, written by Max Mathews and others at Bell Labs three decades ago, was the first widely available "computer music compiler".)
