Music notation can easily be accessed through the piano keys using an application designed by Notation Player. This is also known as VOCM (Virtual Voice-Over Computer Musical Instrument). Notation Player comes with a free software download for Windows computers, but to download the full version, you must pay a one time fee. For those who wish to take the free version, there are several websites that offer the application for download, but they usually contain limited features or are not very user friendly.
Notation Player allows the user to manipulate a virtual piano keyboard with the help of a single mouse click. It makes it possible to play notes, scales, arpeggios, modes and many other types of music easily. Users can easily change their keyboard's octave and note types. A full version does not have an audio feature. However, some versions do come with a sound card that allows you to play notes and even use external speakers to hear the notes played.
Notation player for Windows gives you a wide variety of options for creating your own music including piano music, guitar and bass music, and even jazz music. In fact, some versions have been created so that you can create your own sound files to use in your music creation. Notation player also has a feature that allows you to play chords and scales from multiple octaves simultaneously. In addition, it allows you to easily change the keys and notes on the virtual keyboard. This is especially useful when you want to play chords and scales with a different key. You can create a whole new keyboard layout and music score to practice your scales in the application.
