Now You Can LISTEN TO GRAPHICS on Your IBM PC!

Pixound is a musical screen interpreter that utilizes MIDI sound synthesis.
It allows you to load any graphic and then discover the unique, complex
and often beautiful music which is locked into the compositional details
of color and form. By translating the red, green and blue content of each
pixel into chords (built on any of 60 scales), this sophiticated program
actually enables you to listen to graphics. You might choose to listen to
one of the famous artworks, fractals or screen generators included, or
discover the musical fingerprint of your own art by importing TIFF or PCX
files from either your favorite paint program or scanner.

Your options are incredible with Pixound. If you desire, you can simply
select "Autoplay" and allow the program to automatically browse through
the graphic, playing the music assocated with the colors under the
pointer. Of if you prefer, you can control the areas you listen to by
scanning the graphic using your mouse. For still more musical variety, you
can change the colors of any graphic to produce new sounds.

Novice musicians and computer users, even young children will effortlessly
explore the basics of music theory as they easily vary pitch, harmony,
orchestration, rhythm and modes. The novice will be thrilled to make real
music and the virtuoso will be challenged. Serious musicians will
appreciate the recording function, which allows them to save melodic and
harmonic sequences for use in other music programs. Pixound has been used
by world renowned msuicans in live performances, from avant garde to rock.
Pixound will please any user, from the doodler to the professional.
Enjoy!
