This project was created and designed with the idea of creating a way to make music live and in the studio using ruby code.
I have created a simple rough 54 scale system and currently have the rough prototype of a chord progression system complete.

Future plans is to make the Music System independent of outside software and create a restful way creating music live..

1. Create Synth Widgets to control the Code
