Is there a listserve for computers and music notation? If so, would you
give it please?
I know there is software that can notate what you play on a midi keyboard,
but is there any software that can notate music that it hears from a CD?
Many thanks!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Further to music notation
Hello Listers,
I don't know how accessible the below is with jaws and the linux speakup
screenreader, but it was also mentioned as possibility on the accessible
music notation thread and perhaps merits further experimentation for
those interested:
"Freedots takes a electronic music notation file (musicxml) in as input
and produce braille music notation for printing on a braille embosser or
reading on a braille display. It is also able to playback a piece with
your sound card.
Musicxml is a standard music notation format that can be exported with
most optical music recognition programs e.g. finale.
Freedots is still very early in development, it was only started at the
end of last year I think. According to the website, not all braille
music functions are implemented yet. It is however an open source
project so with a lot of input from us blind braille music users it
should become quite good."
Regards,
Riana
