TonalSoft

Hi,
will Tonalsoft allow to import soundfont banks ?
The ones you can create e. g. with Creative's "Vienna SoundFont Studio" ?
What abount using a MIDI-Keyboard to record MIDI data ?
I am currently struggeling with Cakewalk Express 8 to do this...
Bye
Werner

Let me address your question on the MIDI-Keyboard input. Release
1.1 will provide support for keyboard input. Our design will
incorporate a hardware-abstraction layer so that we can support
almost any imaginable keyboard in addition to MIDI keyboards.

Release 1.1 (R1.1) will rapidly follow R1.0 with no specific date
yet.

Cheers,

Chris

Of course I'd like to know about the price for the software.
And I am still interested in beta-testing.

another piece of music software I have to reconfigure Sibelius...

um ... well, you seem to be pretty much dedicated to
microtonal music these days, so the idea is that once you
get the Tonalsoft application, you *won't need* Sibelius
anymore.

***Hi Monz,

I'm sure I'll enjoy working with your software, but I would be *very*
surprised if it were to end up with the depth of composing features
seen in a "full fledged" notation package such as Sibelius or
Finale...

But, anyway, I enjoy surprises, so maybe I *will* be surprised... :)

Good luck with it!

Joe

If you intend to displace Sibelius in the notation realm,
you've got your work cut out for you!

we've got a schedule of upgrades going years into the future,
so eventually i'm quite confident that our software will
be able to do anything Sibelius or Finale can do, and more.

but anyway, i'm trying to stay focused here on release 1.0,
which we hope to have out around July. for that release,
the *microtonal* notational capability will more
flexible than the applications currently available,
which is the point i was making to Joe Pehrson.

full-blown score presentation is scheduled for release 2.0.

***Well, on that I would certainly hope so, since Sibelius is pretty
lame in that dept...
