@http://highc.org/ HighC is a graphical music creation tool. It is a synthesizer, a sequencer and a mixer inspired by Iannis Xenakis' UPIC work of the mid 80's. HighC uses a structured (additive) synthesis model allowing composition of elementary sound objects into higher level elements. Roughly said, HighC is to HyperUpic and its descendants what PowerPoint is to Photoshop.
