Device Explorer
The device explorer allows the creation of devices that can be used over a given chord.
A device is simply a sequence of device pitches (pitches with dissonances).
This applet is about 100k in size and may take up to one minute to load over modem connections.
You can add pitches by clicking the "add pitch" button.
Select pitches to manipulate by clicking on them in the music staff.
They will turn blue once they are selected.
Remove the selected pitch by clicking the "remove pitch" button.
You can browse the source for the DeviceExplorer, Device, and DevicePitch to get more detail.
