What's New in Play
3.0.2
January 6, 2023
Thank you to all our thousands of Lite users, we have **great news**! Thanks to a generous donation, we can make the complete features of Play-my-Note available FREE to ALL users for at least one year. All key signatures, transposition and 25 last played notes are now included in Play-my-note Lite! ---No Ads, no in-app purchases, no catch. This is a philanthropic gift to students and hobby musicians everywhere. --- *NEW* in this version: transposition for various instruments, especially Brass players. Students of Trumpet, Cornet, French Horn, Tenor Horn (Eb Horn, Althorn) find it extremely helpful to take a reference pitch for the starting note of a phrase, or hear how a melody sounds before trying to play it. Set your instrument, and you can now play any note as it sounds on the page, without knowing its concert pitch name. (You can also look up the concert pitch names by pressing Notes names 3 times) Also useful for parents or carers helping with practice on Viola, Alto Sax or Clarinet, where even some knowledge of piano is not always useful. *Also NEW* Shape Notes, either 4 or 7-shape versions. Shape Note singing remains a thriving tradition in some parts of the US, and is also sometimes used as an intermediate step when learning to sight-sing in Tonic Solfa. ------ **Occasional sound Bug (no sound) - /only/ occurs if Side-Switch of iPad is set to 'Mute' at the time you download the app. Change the Side-Switch to 'Lock-Rotation', delete and reinstall the app, and then set the side-switch back to how you want it.
