The '''Software Music Synthesis System''', which, despite its name, was a hardware device, was developed in the late 1970s for use on various 8080 or Z-80 platforms under the then-popular S-100 bus, such as the SOL-20. Its accompanying software worked under various cassette and disk operating systems, including [[CP/M]]. Its format for defining musical pieces to be played on the hardware involved sequences of [[ASCII]] characters defining characteristics of notes.
