FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FIVE12 ANNOUNCES NUMEROLOGY LEVEL 1 VERSION 1.1

Albuquerque, NM - Saturday, May 17, 2003 -
Five12 today announces that Version 1.1 of Numerology Level 1 is now
available for download at the Five12 website (http://www.five12.com).
Numerology 1.1 includes fifteen major new features and several smaller
enhancements and fixes.  Prominent among the new features are Gate
Division for sequencing complex rhythm patterns, a MIDI Learn mode for
remote control via MIDI CC, and new modules for processing control
signals.

Numerology is a modular MIDI sequencer for Mac OS X that is oriented
for live performance and experimentation.  It uses sequencing
techniques first established by analog sequencers in the 1970's,
implemented within a virtual studio environment built from the ground
up for improvisation and experimentation. Whether you are a new to
music making or an experienced performer, Numerology offers a unique
and powerful environment for extending your compositional boundaries.

To hear evidence of this, visit www.five12.com to hear a demo
sequence made using gate division, pitch slew and MIDI remote
control.  This live, improvised track is an example of how Numerology's
features can be combined to create a powerful compositional instruments.
There are also demo tracks showing Numerology's capabilities with traditional
electronic music, as well as something completely unexpected from a MIDI
sequencer, a granular textures demo.

Numerology Level 1 is written for Mac OS X, version 10.2. A free demo is 
available for download.  The full version can be purchased online for $50.
