The Muse is an alogorithmic music generating instrument in that it uses digital logic circuits to produce a sequence of notes based on the settings of various parameters. The unit has four small sliders that control volume,tempo,pitch and fine pitch.With large sliders on the right side,the Muse was designed to have the capacityto select notes and invent themes, as an early experiment in artificial intelligence. By adjusting these sliders you can control and change how the theme develops.An extremely rare piece,only about 240 of these were made and were not typically available for commercial sale."
