Numbered Musical Notation Composer

Abstract

Computer and it’s technology has been given so many advantages in any side, also in music. Computer’s
technology allows people to build application to compose music in any musical notation. Besides, computer’s
technology in music also allows to edit and save the composed notation easily, compare to use paper and
handwriting (manually). Some applications of musical notation have been built but generally they were built in
standard notation system and it causes the use of the applications are limited to people who know well about
standard musical notation. The goal of this thesis is to build the application of musical notation in numbered
system that can be used by anyone, also provides the simply of editing and safely storage. Numbered Musical
Notation Composer (NMNC) is an application to compose musical notation in numbered system. It is developed
based on algorithm and using Borland Delphi 6.0. By the use of this application user can not only compose
music in numbered notation easily, but also listen the sound, and do not need so much time in editing.
