 A Sorter will float around the MFM and if it sees a Res, it will either turn it into a Note or into another Sorter. If it sees a Note, it has a probability of moving it based on what the notes around it are and some very basic Music Theory rules (like creating or resolving tension). A Sorter will have to know things like their vertical position (so they know what pitches they are near), the scale/mode that is being used, the time signature that's being used (not going to touch this for a while), and the tempo (not going to touch this for a while). I might include some other things like how lenient you want the sorter to be with things like tension and dissonance. For the first iteration of this project, all the sorters will be the same. In the future I might want multiple types of sorters all running at once to create some interesting contrast in the music. A Sorter will float around the MFM and if it sees a Res, it will either turn it into a Note or into another Sorter.

 +I could also have two different sorters. One sorter would move up and down, the other would move left to right. The up/down sorter would be focused more on the individual notes on a specific beat sounding good together. It would also be able to see a little bit to the sides to make sure nothing was too out of the ordinary. The left/right sorter would be focused on the overall flow of the music. This is more related to melody/harmony/rhythm, so I would probably save this for later.
