AC381MUS.ZIP Yes 218676 2/21/1995
ACCU Music System 3.81 lets you create music
on your PC. AMS has many features which Ad
Lib's Visual Composer does not, with some
pro's and con's to them. In AMS, you can only
see/edit/print one voice (series of notes) at
a time, so to enter a chord, for example, you
have to bring up the window for each voice
(note) in the chord. Also, unlike VB, you
cannot hear the notes as you enter them. This
combo makes AMS less suitable for use in
composing music. For transcribing from sheet
music to the computer, you should find AMS
easier to use. You enter notes in a window in
text format (eg: CN is C natural) and they
appear on the staff above the window. Other
features AMS has over VB are the ability to
print, to transcribe, and to play through the
PC's speaker if you do not have a sound card,
although you can only play one voice through
the speaker and up to 11 at once through a
sound card. NEW: Added ability to get
listing of instruments in STANDARD.BNK and
auto-scale option for easier note entry.
