Thanks. I know that programming is not music composition. Programming is another ball of wax. But I'm home all day so I'd like to learn something new. When I attended college you needed an Opttacon to have access to a computer. I didn't know they existed. So where do I start?

Sonar 8.5.3 with jsonar or CT will work wonders if it is composition.

Honestly, if you are wanting to do music composition then programming is
very likely to be the wrong direction to attack the problem from.
Programming would require that you learn an absolutely huge amount of
material that has nothing to do with your desired music work, where use of
an existing program would only require that you find one that is accessible
enough (from what I have read this may be difficult) and then learn how to
use it.

Thanks for your answers.  I've been a musician all my life.  I'm
sixty-one years old so I want to get in to something where I can use
the computer to maybe build something.  Please forgive me.  I know I
sound like the dad in the other room saying something "I want
something real rocky, ... you know?"

The first thing to do is understand how 'music' works in your interest
range. Is this for media playback, simple recording, advanced
recording...?
Are you looking to create vst plugs for things like Sonar, Sound
Forge, or Goldwave? I don't have any direct answer, but attempting to
narrow things down for others to help a little more. My line of work
is going to be enterprise apps (crm, scm, accounting/finance...)

Okay.  I'd like to learn computer programming as it relates to music.
Thanks.

A newbie at what? Seriously--what is it u want to do? Game dev? Web dev?
robotics? music? operating system programming? I O S? Android?
...?

There's all kinds of programming languages & development platforms out
there, & zillions of things to program. Without knowing what it is
you're thinking about, it's like you asking--what is the best way to
get from 1 place to another? If u want real help, you're going to have
to be a lot more specific.

Hi all,

I have try the code, which prints a string into the message dialog.

However, I cannot read this string by both jaws and pc cursor.

I am using eclipse with Jaws 12.

Here is the code:

Thanks in advance



import javax.swing.JOptionPane;



public class Core
{



public static void main(String args[]) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, "Welcome\nto\nJava" ); }



}
