My WindSheets
Read full descriptionHide full description
My WindSheets allows you to create custom PDF sheet music for wind instruments such as the ocarina, recorder, or whistle, customized to your instrument and playing style. CREATE YOUR OWN INSTRUMENT FROM SCRATCH: ⢠Choose from a recorder, a whistle, or a large variety of ocarina designs, including models between 4 and 13 holes, or even double-chamber ocarinas. ⢠Define your note range and configure each fingering hole by hole (open, half-covered, or covered). ⢠Share your instrument settings with a friend by exporting them, or import one that you receive. MANUAL EDITOR: ⢠Create your sheet music note by note, also choosing its musical figure. ⢠Listen to each note you play. MIDI IMPORT: ⢠Load a MIDI file from your device and choose the track you want to convert to sheet music. ⢠Play each track, listen to the entire MIDI file, or change the sound of each track in real time (between piano, ocarina, recorder, or whistle). ⢠Play with the transposition of notes on each track to adapt it to the range of your instrument and thus minimize any notes that are outside that range. GENERATE SHEET MUSIC WITH: ⢠The name of the note. ⢠The musical figure. ⢠The corresponding fingering drawing. TOTAL CUSTOMIZATION: ⢠Choose between viewing the entire app with Anglo-Saxon notation (C, D, E...), Latin notation (DO, RE, MI...) or even both at the same time. ⢠Choose if you want to see sharps or flats. ⢠Edit the sheet music to your preference before exporting it, allowing you to delete or change notes. ⢠Export to PDF with a format of 4Ć4 or 5Ć5 notes per page, depending on whether you prefer to see larger or more compact notes. My WindSheets is designed for people who want to learn and be able to play without relying on generic sheet music.
