Abstract
Collaborative music composition among casual users has the potential of creating advanced music that cannot be composed by a single user since the users can complement a shortage of musical knowledge each other. Although some studies have proposed music composition interfaces which synchronously visualize the composition data in real time, their effects on the quality of music are not still clear. As a result of our experiment, we found that the EMD value (0 is the best score) in using the interface Marble we proposed was lower than that of asynchronous music composition systems and Marble has increased the total number of utterances among users.
