true, but since when have practice exercises sounded good
of course, you could also have a bank of melodies from standards or something in addition to generated melodies. Basically though, as long as you can put parameters on the melody like only use do,re,mi,fa in one octave with 8th notes as the smallest subdivision. then it won't really matter if the melodies sound good, they will be work-off-able.

What do you mean by "there is a place to input notation"? Do you mean something like my progression example a couple of posts back?
a pad of standard notation so to speak, when you start the exercise you specify how many bars, clef, key time signature, it generates those bars, key, clef and time signature.

Then, as the melody plays, you try and fill in on the staff what the melody is.

at least, that's the basic idea.

Well, the last update I had was September 13 I think ... then you released one on September 14 - is that right?

Oops! My bad! I forgot the shrunken GUI was one of the first things I worked on between updates. Sorry about that.

Here's a screenshot of how the tooltip looks on my computer (Panther):



I guess I need to update the screenshot on my site! Thanks for the heads-up.

It lives!

I've updated my program again. This time, I've tweaked the GUI so no drawers are required. The GUI takes up much less space (IMO) than it has in any incarnation.

I still plan on doing updates to this program but I had to get used to being a daddy and the schedule adjustments (schedule? what schedule!?!) that came along with Ben.

The GUI had just been totally bugging me though, why would a simple program need two drawers on top of the main window? Well, now it doesn't. Hope you like the changes.
