5315.0. "AlgoRhythms 2.0 test" by DFN8LY::JANZEN (Thomas MLO21-4/E10 223-5140) Wed Jan 01 1992 17:57

	AlgoRhythms 2.0 is ready for field test, so to speak.
	If you are interested in seeing it doesn't munge your hard disk,
	let me know.  I can't upload it due to technical difficulties.
	AlgoRhythms is a MIDI music improvisor that appeared on Fish 356.
	Over 1.0, 2.0
	1. Has 20 monophonic voices
	2. Play 330 notes per second
	3. Use req.library, but if it's not in your libs:, a cheap requester.
	4. Save MIDI files of it own output if desired.
	
	Let me know if you would like to try it out.

	Note that AlgoRhythms uses Reqlib from fish 400, if available, and 
	a cheap string requester for files if it isnt'.  The file
	req.library from reqlib needs to be in LIBS: . I don't provide it.

5315.2AlgoRhythms 2.0 test kit available PIANST::JANZENThomas MLO21-4/E10 223-5140Mon Jan 06 1992 09:0421
	Hi.  Bob A. has done me a big favor and uploaded AlgoRhythms.lzh
	kit to EOT::AMIGA:[UPLOAD]ALGORHYTHMS.LZH.  Thanks Bob!
	This is a TEST kit.  It may destroy your hard disk, but I doubt it,
	it hasn't destroyed any of my floppies.  I'm not responsible for
	any damage.

	This kit is already a tad old.  It doesn't have a hard-coded TOPAZ80
	font for AmigaDOS 2.0, so your soft font will rule.  This has
	already been fixed on my disks and will appear soon.
	It will use the complete file requester from 
	req.library (fish 400: REQLIB) if available, or a cheap file 
	requester if not.  Also I have fixed the manual and readmes, so those
	will appear soon too.

	Lastly, I have discovered notes of 1-clock tick duration in the MIDI
	file that were longer in live performance by AlgoRhythms.  I can
	kludge that up this week.

	Thanks for testing AlgoRhythms before I send it to Fred!
	Please let me know if it breaks!

	I am done with AlgoRhythms (for good).  It will be uploaded later
	this week by a friend of Amigoids.  I fixed a note duration bug
	 and a window title bug and updated the docs and this morning
	sent it to Fred.

		AlgoRhythms 2.0 MIDI music improvisor for the Amiga is at 
	eot::amiga:[upload]algorhythms2.lzh.
	
	Have fun improvising music!  Now those with Amiga have no excuse for
	not submitting hours of stuff to commusic(TM) tapes! ;-)

	Don't forget that if you install req.library from Fish 400, you get
	a nicer file requester.
