Overview: Harmony for Computer Musicians: Second Edition is the definitive deep dive for the computer musician who is ready to get serious. Building on the foundations of theory and composition, this book focuses on the single most important element for adding depth, colour, and emotional power to your music: harmony. Yet this is not all. Software emulations became favoured post-millennium, providing new options for music producers. Taking advantage of Steinberg’s Virtual Studio Technology (VST) interface, a good example is the Korg Legacy collection, which features software versions of Korg’s classic Wavestation and M1 Synthesizers. Other notable examples are the availability of software emulations of Roland’s TB-303, TR-808 and Sequential Circuits’ Prophet-5. Adding to this the advancing development of VST effects plug-ins such as compressors, reverb, delay, etc. means that a home music producer can now gain access to a large rack of synthesizers, samplers and FX devices on their computer which had previously only been available in expensive hardware forms. One of the remarkable features of all this is the relative affordability of the setup. Because of this affordability, the means of production of high-quality and professional-sounding music tracks has now been placed into the price range of the ordinary person. As a result, the number of people involved in the music production community has surged considerably. Indeed, there are now millions of people worldwide who are producing their own music on their computers. There is a new type of musician in the world. A type of musician that may even outnumber all other types of musician. This is the computer musician – a person who uses their own computer as a musical instrument and production device. For the computer musician who is ready to write with clarity, purpose, and originality, the Second Edition of Harmony for Computer Musicians is your blueprint for better tracks.
