Wallace System of Electronic Drum Notation: SED Notation for The Drum Machine

The Wallace SED notation was created in 2023 by composer and music producer Steve Wallace (b. 1977) to service the need of the incorporation of electronic drum performers (AKA: "finger drummers") and the assigned sounds associated with the instrument to present a visual representation correlating to written musical scores that include instruments that are more commonly used in western classical music structures such as, but not limited to:

-Operas

-Symphonies

-Concertos

-Musicals

-Chamber works

This book was written to show the origin and purpose of this notation as well as an argumentative support for the need of a standardized system for the integration of the electronic drum machine with a variety of progressive concert works with "traditional" western classical music notation.
