Automated Composing System
is a clever program that composes music and saves it as a MIDI file. Select the style you prefer, choose a key, chord progression, even a type of scale to use, hit the "Compose and Play" button, and the program does the rest. You can also select the level of complexity in the melody and harmony, and you can orchestrate your selections with sounds ranging from strings, to distorted guitar, to a dog barking. Any MIDI files created with the Automated Composing System belong to the user of the program. This program is useful for creating music to use for your Website, or generating musical ideas, or other purposes. Plus, it's fun to play with, and it's free.

VirtMus
(virtual music) is a free application that allows the user to display sheet music and flip pages without removing the hands (or feet) from the instrument the music is performed on. It is very useful during concerts and practice sessions. | Music stands are usually able to accomodate at most a single book or 2-3 pages of loose leaf music at once. When performing a longer piece of music, the musician must often move one of the hands away from the instrument to turn the pages. This interupts the performance and breaks the flow of music especially when the page turn occurs during a musically demanding passage. | This software allows the user to create "songs" out of sheet music images obtained from a scanner, digital camera, or pdf, and "PlayLists" out of the "songs". During a performance, the user can simply press a mouse button to move to the next / previous page or press various keyboard keys to advance the music. | USB foot switches are available which emulate mouse button presses thus freeing the hands to play the instrument. Even without a FootSwitch, using a laptop display avoids the problem of books that don't stay open, or loose leaf pages that fly off the music stand when the wind (or HVAC unit) blows.
