Alan Alda is my hero

Seriously, aside from playing some role on M*A*S*H (which I honestly have never seen), this guy has his own show on PBS where he gets to play with some of the most cutting-edge music technology in the world. The short segment on Hyperscore was just a ripple that resulted in a wave of traffic bigger then anything Hyperscore.com has seen all year long.

Alan Alda... We salute you.


Now we've got a ton of enthusiasts searching to try their luck at music composition. But, it seems that there's been a bit of confusion with the price of Hyperscore because of the whole Scientific American Frontiers show on TV.


Just to clarify things up a bit. The following dialogue takes place with a Hyperscore developer who shall remain unnamed... *cough* *mary* *cough* right after Alan Alda is
shown admiring a song composed by a 10-year old boy on Hyperscore:

Alda: "I'll give you $50 for this program right now-cash."
Developer 1: "Actually, it's free on the web. "
Alda: "Oh, No Kidding."
Developer 1: "No Kidding."
Developer 2: "Everyone can download it."


so there ya go! we know what was said on TV!
HOWEVER... this was filmed in 2003, and Hyperscore has come a long way since then! In order to keep the development and distribution of Hyperscore alive and kicking, we had to charge for it. As a result, the Hyperscore you can get today is much more powerful, tested and developed then the one you saw on TV.

We understand that money may still be an issue for some of you, so we give away special promotional discounts whenever the CEO let's us. Since we're still high from all the holiday joy, if you try buying one now (2/12/07) and you may find a little suprise that'll save you some money so you can finally pay off that college tuition that's been looming over your head. OR prompt you to start your child's college tuition since Hyperscore may help them realize their musical genius, resulting in years of private teachers and institutions that make the cost of Hyperscore seem like a steal!!!

By the way, the community is turning out quite awesome. I'd show you
a preview of what it looks like, but the Art Director would repay me with much suffering. Heh, so come back soon to see if anything comes up.

*edit*
Here's a small preview of the new site I've managed to sneak out! If you look closely... you might see key pixels of something bigger!

Yes, I watched that show and found out the interface of the software from the show looked quite different from the one on the demo video. I guess there was a big improvement in 3 years after all.
