How to make hand signs like this : do OO re / \ la /\ /\
Mr. Rob, can you make the bell heads bigger, please? Thank you! -Seun
I had a good try today, but I couldnt save it or publish it anywhere, when I tried to publish it, it went blank again.
Working on this - I'll keep you posted - thanks for the heads up!
The interface is all over the place. cant click on things and settings for compose tool are in a strange place! Not saving unless you publish? Doesn't make any sense. The "feedback" button is inhibiting me from clicking settings.. Can't input notes by keyboard... Deletes project if accidentally click on something also. Completely dysfunctional. So much potential. Lets go!
I fixed the feedback button - just ran into that too sorry I missed it. Was a hectic week getting my girls back to school. Can't input notes by keyboard -- computer keyboard or MIDI keyboard?
Mr Rob it appears the settings tab is gone in the compose section.
So sorry I missed this - it's fixed now!!
Mr. Rob, can you put a lower and higher range of notes, please? I was making "The Imperial March", but I realized I don't have enough notes. So can you expand it, please? Thank you! -Seun
Mr. Rob, I also agree with @abigail_apraku about the solfege hand-signs and can you make the bell heads bigger like in MFS1. Thank you! -Seun
Mr. Rob, cann you please add the bells heads on the notes, please? Thank you! -Seun
Hey Seun - can you describe what you mean a bit? There is a setting for Bell note heads instead of note heads but it's really just for easier songs right now? Are you thinking we should do bell note heads for harder songs as well?
Seun - I made it possible to turn the bell faces on in both composition modes. If you want to update a current song of yours, click edit and then from the menu pick the noteheads > bells options!!
Safari on iPad fails to play sound, and also fails to show the score when I press Print to export a pdf. But it really is coming on Rob. Thanks so much!
thank you!! Great feedback i was just working on ipad and safari action. ill keep you posted
also i don't think it's functional on safari, or maybe just not via ios. couldn't get it to place notes on my phone. couldn't get sound on my ipad.
phones are gonna be tricky for something like this but the ipad just got a big update. and hopefully that safari bug is worked out for the sound. gonna keep testing on my ipad this afternoon
no whole or half notes?
you should be able to drag notes out to half and whole notes -- need to hover around the edge and then a little yellow pair of arrows shows up and you can drag them. Let me know what device etc so i can help iron this out - Rob
just saved a song i wasn't ready to publish but i don't think it actually saved anywhere
Right now only Lifetime & PK-5 members can save and publish tunes - other folks can just make and test and browse right now. If you're signed in as LT or PK5 member and that's the case please let me know.
A TON of updates you all suggested and bugs you found have been addressed today. And there might be a suppppper sick new feature coming soon. Thank you all so much for the ideas and feedback. Keep it coming and we'll get this thing ironed out and running smoother every week
being able to view the whole page, rather than zoomed in to just one line. Also, saving settings to not have to reset selections every time.
Not sure if I'm doing this wrong, but when I added a dotted crochet, I couldn't figure out how to make the following note a quaver. It appeared a crochet and didn't quite fit correctly.
I've found the "clear all notes" but it doesn't also clear the chords. It would be nice to just have a completely clean sheet.
I think its working now!
So excited... yet not sure I am doing it right. I can't get it to work on my iPad, and even on my laptop (which is new and up to date) it seems to have a lag in the playback mode? Not sure what I am doing wrong, or if maybe there are just a lot of people trying to use it all at the same time. Once we get it figured out it will me amazing! My girls have tried to write on paper their own songs... so this will be such a nice up grade and encourage them along.
This app is super, super, super, super, super good. Everything you made is amazing. -Ilán Zev (age 7)
You can now change your username from the "My Profile" menu in the top right, something folks were asking about!
Can’t syncopate an eighth tied to a quarter over the bar line. Dragging doesn’t allow enough control, as it places notes in random places rather than desired place.
Good find! I'll look into it and try to get it fixed up today
The G when chromatics is enabled won't work by being dragged.
Thank you! Great find. TBH I haven't tested Chromatic enough so far. Looking into it - Mr. Rob
It should be working now!!
I am not figuring out how to do the compose. Are there some directions someplace?
Make sure you're logged in with the same email you use for Lifetime or PK-5 and then drag the bells from the bottom up to the staff. A directions video / page is a good call! I'm on it
How do you get a note on the staff?
Drag a bell up there. There's a new instructions page in the menu - click the ? for more details
UPDATE: Dotted quarter note support is live!! Thank you Shalia for the good feedback and idea there. KEEP EM COMING!!!
