Bol Processor 2 (BP2) is a music composition/improvisation software producing arrangements of sound-objects with a set of rules similar to formal grammars. The inference engine produces strings of symbols feeding an algorithm for the expansion of (polymetric) polyphonic/polyrhythmic structures, and ultimately a time-setting algorithm dealing with constraints on sound-objects. First interfaced with MIDI and Csound, BP2 has a great potential for modelling durations and melodic patterns in speech synthesis. Link on SourceForge: http://bolprocessor.sourceforge.net
