IDirectMusicComposer8 Interface
The IDirectMusicComposer8 interface enables access to the composition engine. In addition to building new segments from templates and chordmaps , the composer can generate transitions between different segments. It can also apply a chordmap to an existing segment, thus altering the chord progression and the mood of the music.
