2. Basic Usage

When you first start Buzz, you'll see a mostly blank screen with a box in the center that says "Master." This is the machine view. From this view you can add, connect, edit, disconnect, and delete machines from your song. A "machine" can be many things: an instrument, an effect, an input, an output. The point is, Buzz works entirely on the metaphor of creating and connecting machines. When those machines connect to the Master machine, their output is sent to your speakers. So, at a minimum, to get any sound you need at least one instrument connected to the Master!

2 .== The Eternal Composition

Christian never slept. Rather, he suspected sleep never came for him. He used to remember drifting off, losing time, measuring how long he'd been out.

Since becoming a Composer, though, time seemed more flexible. Hours, days, weeks--he couldn't distinguish between then anymore. One Movement could take all day. Directing the Players, the Instruments, shaping the Melodies, carving out the Notes. Time gradually meant less and less to him, the longer he composed.
