Music composition system and method

A computer readable storage medium comprising computer readable program code configured to execute on a processor for music composition, the program code configured to:

• a) display a composition object according to a first value, wherein the first value includes a musical event;
• b) display a first indicator, wherein the first indicator describes the first value;
• c) display a second indicator, wherein the second indicator describes the first value;
• d) select the composition object;
• e) graphically alter the first indicator;
• f) change the first value to a second value;
• and
• g) graphically alter the second indicator.

A system for music composition, comprising:

• a) a display module configured to display data;
• b) a graphical user interface module in communication with the music data control module, and configured to interface with a user;
• c) a music data control module in communication with the display module and with the graphical user interface module, and configured to control music data, comprising instructions for:
• c1) displaying a composition object through the display module, wherein the composition object displays a first value in a first mode and a second value in a second mode;
• c2) displaying a first indicator in association with the composition object, in communication with the graphical user interface module, and wherein a transition of the composition object between the first mode and the second mode is actuated by graphically altering the first indicator through the graphical user interface module;
• and
• c3) displaying a second indicator in association with the composition object, wherein a graphical change in the second indicator occurs in association with the transition of the composition object between the first mode and the second mode;
• and
• d) a music data source module in communication with the music data control module and providing the first value.
