Dr.T's Software Sightings...

A C64Music! reader informed us that he spotted an original copy of the Dr.T's Algorithmic Composer software , cartridge, cables and manual... it finally went for only 1 bid at 2.50$ !!!

Apparently, Jan Hammer found out about it when Algorithmic music was kicking in the late 80's and bought a Commodore 64 system to exclusively run the Algorithmic Composer along his 30.000$ Fairlight and used it on his famous Miami Vice Soundtracks.

Dr.T's software was founded in 1984 by Emile Tobenfeld and the killer app was the KCS (Keyboard Controlled Sequencer) which was the first sequencer that offered event editing and open-ended composition structuring. This program evolved for many years, and eventually became Omega II, for the Atari (latest official release in 1993).

I guess I will have to keep hunting for this one... only 2.50$ gnrrrrrr....

thanks Sean.
