Dear Leyna,
Are you acquainted with Wendy Richards or Lisette Wesseling? They both live
in New Zealand and I believe both are members of MENVI. Lisette uses
GOODFEEL in her work as a professional singer and teacher who is totally
blind and I believe that Wendy may also use it as part of her popular
Saturday programs for blind music students.
I invite you or anyone who is interested to contact me directly to arrange
to evaluate our accessible notation software. You can download and try it
for 15 days at no cost. We can arrange an online Skype/Tandem session with
you so that we can help you to install and configure it optimally. We do
offer payment terms for individuals to make the software easier to acquire.
You can run Lime Aloud scripts with the demo version of JAWS which is free.
That is, it will run for 40 minutes before you must reboot your PC. A bit
of a nuisance but the price is right. J
Please contact me at my info at DancingDots.com address.
Lime is software that lets you read and write printed music notation. Lime
Aloud gives the blind musician excellent access to Lime's rich set of
notation editing features. With the JAWS for Windows screen reader software
installed, Lime Aloud provides the blind musician with verbal and musical
cues that make it easy to use Lime independently and most productively.
You will find a brief audio presentation demonstrating our access solution
to the Lime notation editor at:

See the heading labeled:
Audio Presentation of Lime Aloud Available for Download
Alternatively, go to www.DancingDots.com and follow the "Presentations" link
and then select the Lime Aloud demo from the list.
Best,
Bill McCann

Subject: [Menvi-discuss] grade six theory
Hello,
I am a totally blind person living in New Zealand. I am studying grade six
theory but am running into some problems. Does anyone know what methods work
best when trying to get my homework into a print music? Nobody in my family
reads music. Also there is not much funding available for technology for
blind people who have left the school system. I'm interested in music
notation software but struggle to use it. I already have Sebilius 3 but it
only seems to work with Jaws which I don't have. Any suggestions to make my
study easier and more injoyable would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.
Blessings, Leyna
