Super Studio Session provides an application program, a collection of sample songs, a comprehensive phrase library excerpted from those songs for use in your own compositions, nearly 100 digitized instruments and sounds, and the dancing notes animation.

The first Download link above, is for a separate archive containing more songs and the older, "classic" versions of the songs and instruments, compatible with the version of Super Studio Session linked below.

Compatibility:

(from the "ReadMe")
1.
Super Studio Session now works with most versions of the Macintosh System Software. In addition, Super Studio Session works with most Macintosh computers from the Macintosh Plus to the PowerBooks, Quadras, Centrises, and AV machines. However, Super Studio Session may not be compatible with all versions of PowerMacs.
2. Printing
Due to popular demand, we have added printing. This new feature is described on page 17.
3. Individual Track Volume Control
For Macintosh II's and above, we have added individual track volume control for all eight tracks of your song from ppp (very soft) to fff (very loud). This new feature is described on page 28.
4. New Features
We have added other miscellaneous new features, such as a new hierarchical Edit menu command, new keyboard equivalents for transposing octaves, and support for the new version of SSMU™ (Studio Session MIDI Utility).
5. New Versions
We have included within this package two different versions of Super Studio Session. Super Studio Session 11KHz plays instruments at 11KHz and Super Studio Session 22KHz plays instruments at 22KHz. In addition, we have redigitized all the instruments at 22KHz. If you have a Macintosh Plus, Macintosh SE, PowerBook 100, Macintosh Portable, or a Macintosh Classic (but not II) use Super Studio Session 11KHz. If you have any other machine, use Super Studio Session 22KHz.

Through the Looking Glass (aka Alice)

Daxeria — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 07:46:05 +0000

As Alice, you must outmanoeuvre a fast-moving array of enemy pieces on a chessboard.

Likely the first game ever made for the Mac, and the only one ever developed and retailed by Apple. The author has also released a 25th anniversary version for the iPhone.

Amazing
