Mozart 3.4

This is the third generation of Mozart and there are many improvements to previous versions. In fact the entire application has been re-written and redesigned from scratch. We hope you like it.
We always felt funny about the quality of the sound on a Palm handheld, but until OS 5 there was really nothing much to do about that. Now that several Palm handhelds support asynchronous sound playback (most Treos for example), we have added the beginnings of a sound library. Mozart comes with a very nice Grand Piano library that can be stored in RAM or on memory card and many more sound libraries are to follow.
We also felt that the application should support key signatures, which was one of the reasons for the re-write. You can now select any key signature in the Circle of Fifths and get going. There is even a toolbar button for switching between parallel major and minor.
With key signatures came another new feature – in the instruments bass, guitar and piano you can now highlight scale degrees on the input surface if you chose to.
Solfege might not be a major part of anyone’s life, but it is for the music student. With Mozart’s capability to handle key signatures we also vamped up its Solfege interface. Mozart uses the so-called “movable DO” system as is taught in most American colleges. Check it out!
Bass players have been heard. We had so many requests for a bass interface that we finally decided to add one. Thanks bass players – here you go.
Well, that is it for the intro. We are very happy to present to you the new Mozart with all the love and work that went into it. Here is our standard pitch:
Learn how to read music in a game. Five minutes here - five minutes there and your reading will improve dramatically (Treble, Bass, Alto and Tenor clefs).This is a game for musicians. You are confronted with a steady stream of notes that you have to input correctly. The slight difference is that youll need to know the name of the note, before you tap the buttons.The difficulty increases until you need to identify several ledger lines above and below the staff. You can choose different clefs and input methods as well as two player levels. Mozart is used in many schools and a great tool for music education.
Enhancements:
- This version adds Mandolin as input instrument
- open string input for stringed instruments and improved playback.
System requirements:
- Palm OS 3.5
