Compose with Sounds, version 2

Compose with Sounds can be used as a stand-along software to those new to making music with sounds; however, it has been created by project director (Landy) and developer (Pearse) as part of the EARS 2 pedagogical initiative (eLearning site). It was created for 11-14 year olds (KS3 in the UK) but for anyone with no or little prior experience in sonic creativity. It has received two EU Culture grants and, within version 2, in 2020 was introduced in ten languages. Version 2 is completely recoded due to issues related to changes on operating systems (Windows, MacOS) and includes several enhancements. Compose with Sounds can be found at ears2.dmu.ac.uk/cws
