Well guys, I'm going to go kill myself. If this is what's cool now, I no longer have any connection to this world. Good-bye friends-Cartman
I thought you were going to kill yourself-Kyle
I tried. Sat in the garage with my mom's car turned on.-Cartman
And you didn't die?-Stan
Friggin hybrids man, they just don't do the trick anymore-Cartman
Poor microsoft can't get a break.. Video may be cheesy but the idea is nice.-mouser (January 13, 2009, 12:40 AM)
The free trial will work for six hours of actual application use. That’s not six hours from the instant you download it, it’s six hours of you really using Songsmith. If you close Songsmith, minimize Songsmith, or start working in another application, the clock stops. So this is plenty of time to make lots of songs (making songs is quick and easy, we promise!).-http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/f294560a-c545-4d1c-be53-6e7fac0429f8/default.aspx
If you've had a great time making music for six hours and want to keep on rocking, you can purchase Songsmith for $29.95 (in the U.S.) or 29 euros (in the EU) at the online Microsoft store. Songsmith is currently only available for purchase in the U.S. and EU, but the free trial version can be downloaded anywhere.-http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/songsmith/download.html
Remember "Band in a Box"? This seems similar to that, except this appears to fill in a harmony based on the melody of your voice.-CWuestefeld (January 13, 2009, 08:32 PM)
Band in the Box is really quite cool software (and is still being actively developed). It is more like an intelligent loop based based composition system....Yes, I'm fond of it myself.
but only really scratched the surface of what it can do.-Carol Haynes (January 14, 2009, 03:33 AM)

The father in the ad is actually one of the developers, Dan Morris. The guy in the coffee shop is another developer, but I don't know his name.-zridling (January 13, 2009, 09:20 PM)
Isn't this sort of thing pretty prevalent already? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_music_automation)-Xenonym (January 29, 2009, 06:11 AM)
