Then he should learn to write notation. The solution is surely not to have a program printing what he played, esp as he can't even verify that it did it right. There are many other benefits from learning to read: * a new world of dynamics, articulations etc might open up. * you can easily check out styles that are far from what you're used to * you'll experience music theory as you play Although many composition teachers tell you compositions should sound improvised, I firmly believe that working a bit on the improvised composition might make it work better as a composition. -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
