Toccata Braille music translation software provides a complete solution to the conversion of printed sheet music to Braille music. Toccata incorporates;

¨ Music scanning and recognition software

¨ Integral notation editor

¨ Inbuilt sequencing capability that allows playback of up to 16 simultaneous voices

¨ Translation to a variety of pre defined Braille music formats. Each format can be customised to the users requirements.

¨ A Braille music editor which displays the translated music as Braille dots and can be edited using a ‘six key’ mode on the pc keyboard. The Braille music is indexed to the notation editor which means that wherever the cursor is placed in either the Braille music editor or the notation editor, both editors display the same measure of music.
