Abstract: MUSIC is a program which will play music in four part

harmony on any PDP-8 family core memory computer, except the 8/S or

PDP-12. The music to be played is input to the program as a standard

OS/8 ASCII file. The music may be picked up by the use of an AM radio,

or by a simple interface. The OS/8 distribution media include the source

of the player, which can be customized for various configurations, along

with approximately 45 minutes of music, such as Joplin, Bach, Beetho-

ven, movie tunes, etc.

The binary paper tape is intended for any 1.5 microsecond PDP-8, and

runs in 4K, but will only play short tunes. Several short tunes are

available on paper tape.
