System 7.0 or later.

MIDI Keyboard allows for MIDI events to be sent to programs such as Finale, Reason, Garage Band, and others that accept MIDI input. The main features include note on/off, sustain pedal, instrument, velocity, and channel selection, and Chord Input mode. Chord Input mode allows for 53 seperate chords to be selected by the user. The piano GUI also allows for mouse input and graphical representation of the notes being played.
Perfect for your traveling laptop when you need to get some music entered when you are without an external MIDI device.
Enhancements:
- Additional chord GUI allows for custom chord configurations
- There are now 52 chord types to choose from (everything from a Major chord to a Minor Major 7th add 13 chord)
- Various fixes.

NINJAM is a program to allow people to make real music together via the Internet.
Every participant can hear every other participant. Each user can also tweak their personal mix to his or her liking. NINJAM is cross-platform, with clients available for Mac OS X and Windows.
NINJAM uses compressed audio which allows it to work with any instrument or combination of instruments. You can sing, play a real piano, play a real saxophone, play a real guitar with whatever effects and guitar amplifier you want, anything. If your computer can record it, then you can jam with it (as opposed to MIDI-only systems that automatically preclude any kind of natural audio collaboration1).
Since the inherent latency of the Internet prevents true realtime synchronization of the jam2, and playing with latency is weird (and often uncomfortable), NINJAM provides a solution by making latency (and the weirdness) much longer.
Latency in NINJAM is measured in measures, and thats what makes it interesting.
The NINJAM client records and streams synchronized intervals of music between participants. Just as the interval finishes recording, it begins playing on everyone elses client. So when you play through an interval, youre playing along with the previous interval of everybody else, and theyre playing along with your previous interval. If this sounds pretty bizarre, it sort of is, until you get used to it, then it becomes pretty natural. In many ways, it can be more forgiving than a normal jam, because mistakes propagate differently.
Part tool, part toy, NINJAM is designed with an emphasis on musical experimentation and expression.
NINJAM uses OGG Vorbis audio compression to compress audio, then streams it to a NINJAM server, which can then stream it to the other people in your jam. This architecture requires a server with adequate bandwidth, but has no firewall or NAT issues. OGG Vorbis is utilized for its great low bitrate characteristics and performance. Each user receives a copy of other users audio streams, allowing for each user to adjust the mix to their liking, as well as remix later. This uses more bandwidth than having a server encode a single stream, but has numerous benefits (including lower server CPU use and the client having the full multichannel data for later use).
NINJAM can also save all of the original uncompressed source material, for doing full quality remixes after the jam.
For some samples of how NINJAM can sound, see samples directory.
Enhancements:
- Hidden password in connection dialog
- Password saving option
- Small fixes.

Has been developed out of pure necessity, mainly from the need for the tools during sessions over the past two years at my work in the Sydney Opera House. I have also been collaborating with some of the members here getting feedback on the widget and incorporating their ideas.
The Widget offers five different tools. Each accessible by clicking on the tab name.
Main features:
- Keyboard: A tiny four octave keyboard is available to be played - you actually get to hear the note via the in-built Core Audio GM Synthesiser. You can select between different sounds, Piano, Guitar, Sine Wave and a Click. When you play a note, that notes frequency, MIDI note number and note name are displayed.
- TapTempo: A simple tool that is probably used at least once per session. Simply click the Lounge or tap your space bar to work out a tempo. You can also see the classic tempo marking for that tempo. A pull down menu offers the choice of a note value to also show the delay in milliseconds for that value at that tempo.
- MediaCalc: This tool is what started me building a widget. You are able to quickly ascertain how much disk space a session will use ahead of time. You can enter in the number of tracks, the duration, the sample rate and bit depth. You can also see what media the resulting file size will be required.
- DigiTool: Calculates the numbers of samples for a given time period and sample rate in milliseconds. Good if you need to enter a delay in samples and you only know the time in milliseconds.
- SonicSpeed: Work out the speed of sound for the given temperature, allowing for conversion between metric and imperial scale, offering a propagation time in milliseconds.
- No matter what tool you are using, the widget offers a live stream of the latest posts from the BigBlueLounge Forums.

Tunefinder X is a Melody Index. It will show you the name of the composer and composition for any of over 13,000 melodies from classical and popular music when all you know is the melody itself.

Just click-play the melodys first ten notes on an on-screen piano keyboard diagram. You will hear each note as you play it.

The database includes themes and melodies from scores of composers, including Arlen, Bach, Beethoven, Berlioz, Bizet, Brahms, Bruckner, Chopin, Corelli, Debussy, Donizetti, Dvorak, Elgar, Gershwin, Gluck, Grieg, Handel, Haydn, Joplin, Liszt, Mahler, Mendelssohn, Meyerbeer, Milhaud, Mozart, Offenbach, Prokofiev, Puccini, Rachmaninoff, Ravel, Rodgers, Rossini, Saint-Saens, Scarlatti, Schubert, Schumann, Sibelius, Smetana, Sousa, Strauss, Strauss, Sullivan, Tchaikovsky, Verdi, Vivaldi, Wagner, and Weber.

TuneFinder is also available as a Hypercard Stack (for Mac OS 9, requires HyperCard Player).
