Composers and arrangers can use The Lime Lighter to enter, revise and print out their musical ideas. That is, you can both read and write your music in an accessible environment. SharpEye does not recognize or allow the user to enter multiple rests so we recommend placing a single whole measure rest at the location of the multiple rest and inserting the other measures in Lime. It is also possible to insert multiple individual measures with First support for Unified English Braille (UEB) for transcribing text elements such as titles and lyrics. However, you should have a basic understanding of print music notation and how to use a Windows PC. At these conferences we will be demonstrating The Lime Lighter low-vision music-reading device that magnifies print music, our GOODFEEL®

Screen reader users should press CONTROL+F4 to close the image window that opens when SharpEye starts up. Next, press ALT+F, and then the letter q to start scanning. What happens next depends on your particular scanning software and make and model of scanner. To get rapid replies to your questions and to connect with a global community of users of Dancing Dots' software, we urge you to We recommend that you read on here to learn about the other two options for creating Lime scores that follow here: MusicXML import and music OCR with SharpEye and other applications.

Attention Lime Lighter Customers running Lime 9.13: Major Upgrade to Lime Lighter Software Now Available Learn to produce publishing-quality music notation with our JAWS-based, Lime Aloud notation software. PATTAN's lending library of assistive technology (AT) available to Pennsylvania local educational agencies (LEA) for a trial period. View one of the videos below to simulate the experience of reading music with The Lime Lighter. Maximum zoom level is 10x. Be aware of the actual size and zoom level that is described in the simulations and match the staff size indicated as closely as you can with what you see in the simulations. If the notation in the videos below seems too small, remember that these videos display notation at 8x (8 times standard size). Lime Lighter can display at the even larger size of 10x and, with some additional techniques, even somewhat larger than 10x. Of course, if the notes actually seem to be too big, remember that you can always change the zoom level to a lower magnification level.

It will probably only be necessary to take the configuration steps in this section once or perhaps from time to time depending on the type of score you wish to scan.in Lime after creating a piece of music in SharpEye. Most of the recommendations also apply when preparing a Lime score via the direct entry method. Do you or your student need training in the use of technology from Dancing Dots or in braille music reading? Dancing Dots has contracted with school districts, rehabilitation agencies and individuals all over the world to provide remote training in our accessible music technology and to teach braille music reading. Scheduling is flexible to meet the student's school periods or free time after school. All students will use the Lime notation editor which has been integratedwith the GOODFEEL Braille Music Translator. They will learn to for me so I can import them in to Lime. One fellow choir member has recently even created Lime files for me. This software has been a godsend. I have also used it to study piano and voice privately. When you are satisfied that your Lime score is ready for conversion to the equivalent braille music, start GOODFEEL by using Lime's menu item
