Please allow time for the applet to load. Depending
on your connection speed and computer muscle, it could take as
long as 5 minutes for all of the applet's sounds and images to
load over the network and initialize.
If you don't know what Musical Set Theory is, please
read all about it. (Includes help on
using the applet.)
Turn your speakers up! The applet lets you hear the
sets you create.
You can hear individual pitches by clicking on the
keyboard.
Click numbers on the clockface to toggle set members
on/off.
To define a new set, use the "Define Set..."
button or just type a comma-separated list of numbers in the
"Pitch Class Set:" field and press Enter (Mac users
press Return)
If you switch to another window and then come back
to this web page, the applet's piano keyboard and clockface map
do not redraw. As far as I can tell, this is a Java problem and
not my problem. But to facilitate things, I've added a Redraw
button on the side bar. Just click redraw after switching windows
has erased those parts of the applet.
