SeerMusic Real-time Demonstration
This page demonstrates how SeerMusic enables musicians to deliver CD-quality music under very low bandwidth conditions.
Cable modem users may range 2,500 and DSL 1,500 kbps but that does not allow them to interact with audio streams.
Dial-up reaches 56 kps. But there persist environments in which data rates of 14.4 kbps or less prevail, for example rural areas
or through cell phones today and watches tomorrow. There will never be enough bandwidth.
Set your modem speed to 9600 baud (9.6 kbps) and try playing any of the audio versions of the tune.
Listen how the buffering struggles to keep up but inevitably becomes starved of data and the music breaks up. To save any example, right-click.
Then play the SeerMusic version, watching for the player to open on your desktop.
The data window reports the streaming progress and then the tune plays continuously.

Music and lyrics by: John Holston
14 reMixer tracks
This tune was composed in MIDI using Cakewalk Pro Audio 8.0 and
Reality 1.5.3 for all the instruments. The vocal tracks were
recorded onto Cakewalk Pro Audio multi tracks, mixed down to one
track and edited into samples in Sound Forge 4.0. The resulting
vocal samples were then imported into the Reality sound bank and
mapped to the keyboard using Reality. Going back to Cakewalk the
vocal samples were then "played" on the keyboard
controller while the other MIDI tracks played. After the MIDI file
was complete it was imported into Reality and the entire soundbank
was saved as a SeerMusic file, given a discrete name, and you are
now listening to it!
Gear used: Homemade computer with Pentium II-350, 64 megs RAM, Win 98,
AWE64 Gold sound card, Stedman vocal mic, Behringer Autocomp compressor.
