This project, developed in 2013 by Dr. Marcus Alessi Bittencourt, presents a computational model in PHP of psychoacoustic music theories by Richard Parncutt (Parncutt 1988, 1989, 1997 and 2009), with the addition of other theoretical components of his (Bittencourt 2011), combined to Set-Theory (Forte, 1973 and Rahn, 1980) and the theories by Edmond Costère (Costère, 1954). This model was implemented in the form of an analytical calculator available to the community via the internet as an HTML page. Such a tool allows the fast access to the analytical diagnostics generated by the computational model by means of an HTML page containing a concise form easily viewable and printable.

The study of the properties of tonicity, phonicity and azimuth of pitch-class sets is an important task for compositional and analytical work. Nonetheless, such methodology requires a certain amount of calculations which are, although not too complex from the point of view of mathematicians, certainly boring and cumbersome from a musician's standpoint. It is with this realization in mind that this calculator was created: to provide quick and clear access to the interpretations and diagnostics done from the analysis of musical data submitted by a user. The project was implemented in PHP so that the calculator would be absolutely multi-platform and accessible online at the internet to all the music community, without the need to install special software, except for the usual web browser normally present in any modern computer.
