Hey guys,
I'm nearing the end of my Masters degree. As many of you know,
I've been working on Computer-Assisted Musical Instrument Tutoring
programs. In particular, I've create a program (MEAWS - Musician
Evaluation and AWdition for Strings) that grades simple
exercises. It has two types of exercises:
Rhythms: you clap a rhythm and it gives you a grade based on how
accurately you clapped.
Intonation: you play some notes and it gives you a grade based on
how accurate your pitch was. These exercises are aimed at violin
students. Not useful for pianists, sorry guys. :)
If you'd like to check it out, it's available at:
http://web.uvic.ca/~gperciva/meaws/
MEAWS is available for Linux and MacOS X, and licensed under the
GPL, so it's free to download and play around with. A Windows
version was planned, but was dropped due to my lack of experience
with that operating system. In theory it shouldn't be hard to
compile it (I used cross-platform libraries), but I just don't
know how this stuff works on Windows.
I'm also gathering feedback via a user study (on the webpage
above); you have any comments about MEAWS, please fill out the
form instead of sending to me directly.
Cheers,
- Graham
