RTC-Lib

This software library - a collection of patches for MAX (an interactive graphical programming environment for multimedia, music, and MIDI running on a Macintosh; © by IRCAM / Opcode Inc.) - offers the possibility to experiment with a number of compositional techniques, such as serial procedures, permutations and controlled randomness. Most of these objects are geared towards straightforward processing of data. By using these specialized objects together in a patch, programming becomes much more clear and easy. Many functions that are often useful in algorithmic composition are provided with this library - therefore the composer could concentrate rather on the composition than the programming aspects.
