AMIFAST: an architecture for MIDI flows as sonification tools

We describe a framework in Java to create sonification applications with minimum effort from the programmer and musician. Our tool, AMIFAST, offers a set of modules that can be easily assembled to produce sonification of off-line as well as on-line (i.e. real-time) applications. Moreover, the programmer can easily add new functionalities In AMIFaST, we included a sonification technique that we introduce here, Markov Chain Perturbation.
