People listen to other people’s music and copy it while simultaneously transforming it to make it new and unrecognizable as the original. Eventually this process turns into the composers own unique voice.

I’d specifically like to see a program that will give novices the same transformation tools that pros use to compose; such as take a melody I input, perhaps only scanned in, that the computer then runs through all of the traditional music composition transformational devices without making me write them all out and test them on my instrument before I input them into the so called music composition software.

If and when it can instantly create, inversions, retrogrades, retrograde-inversions, permutations, augmentations, diminutions, diatonic transpositions, INTERVERSIONS, putting the original melodic series together with the rhythmic retrograde, or putting the melodic series’ retrograde inversion with the original melodic rhythm or taking the melodic series from one tune and combining it with the melodic rhythm from another tune, automatically make a diatonic melody pentatonic or automatically change the mode, then and ONLY then will there be any real music composition software in the universe.
