Ginger and all,
Thank you for your responses to my question. I will only be doing single-line
format as it is violin music that my instructor has me working on as ear
training exercises. I want my own hard copy of the music. I’ve only been
reading the music code for the last 3 years or so (I’m a late bloomer) <SMILE>
and this will be my first effort at brailling my own music copies. I’ve thought
about getting the Dancing dots software and related software so I can do my own
transcriptions, but again don’t want to spend the money on it right now. Maybe
at some point I’ll get it but I just had to get a new display so don’t want
another blindness expense this year.
Thanks again.
Eileen

I use Duxbury for music braille. You are not entering the visual notes, you
are doing 6-key braille entry....absolutely you can use Duxbury for that! I am
a beginner when it comes to brailling music, so the only music I braille is
single line, single note music like for a baritone part or a soprano vocal
part.
I wish you success!

Hi,
Yes I know the music code and I can do 6-key entry. Just wanted to double check
since I seem to recall reading messages on this list saying DBT could not
handle the music code.
Thanks.

Hello,
If you know the braille music code and your computer keyboard can do six key
entry I don’t see why you couldn’t do it with Duxbury.

Hello All,
I want to create a few simple music scores that I have been working on and
wanted to check with this list if that is doable using DBT? I don’t have any of
the Dancing Dots software and at this time do not want to make the investment
in it. If I can’t use DBT to accomplish this, is Perky Duck a solution.
Thanks for any advice on how to best get this done.
Eileen
