Track your progress over time. E-mail statistics to your teacher. Created by a piano student of twenty years and a piano teacher of eight years. Flexible enough for all skill levels. You can learn to read music with Noteable.

Thank you so much for The Notable Music Flashcards. It's a great package! I only wish I'd gotten a copy earlier. Every music instruction facility in the world should have a site license.

Just wanted to tell you how much I like your program. I have quite a few music students, and several have learning disabilities. Your program is working great with them. The repetition in the lower levels is just what I needed for them.

Outstanding Software. Perfect way to learn to read notes.

Pros: Let me start this way. In the last 8 years I've downloaded hundreds of programs from download.com. This is the ONLY ONE that I have purchased.

This program teaches you to read notes in the bass and treble cleff. You can pick a range of notes that you want to practice so that you don't have to try to learn too many notes at once.

This program has a ton of features that you can read about in the description, but I really didn't need to use any of the other features.

If you are learning to read music, this program will do an outstanding job of teaching you to read the notes.

Cons: Note that this program teaches you to read notes. It does not teach you other aspects of sheet music, such as note duration (whole note, half note, etc), chords, or any other indicators on sheet music. I do not view this as a drawback, because this program makes clear that it's just to help you learn to read the notes.

Here are some features that I would like to see added, but please understand that this program is great even without these features.

1) It would be nice if the program offered an option to show different notes in different colors as well as black. This could help in the initial learning of notes and could be turned off as a user got better in their ability to read notes. One thing about learning is that the more multimedia that you can make it, the quicker it happens. Added in version 7.01, 1/1/2008

2) I'd like to see a note preview feature that showed what the next note coming up will be. In music, reading ahead is an essential skill. This program could help users acquire that skill with a note preview feature.

3) It would be great if this company either added to this product or created a follow-on product that would offer more music reading skills, such as by chord recognition and note duration.

Excellent software!!

Pros: Very well thought out and works perfectly with MIDI keyboard. I went ahead and purchased the pro version. It was a bargain for everything the program can do.

Cons: Nothing. If you are learning to read music, this is the program to buy.

You are not too beginner or too expert for this program. We guarantee it will help you.

Refine the music skills you already have. These music flash cards are simple enough for beginners yet offer an unlimited practice range, reaction time feedback, and a super fast interface to challenge even expert musicians.

Thanks for the program. I bought this for my daughter but I have enjoyed it just as well.

I am a "senior" who has renewed a much earlier interest in learning to play the piano. I am teaching myself and have found The Noteable Flashcards software a very useful adjunct to the piano software course that I am using.

I just purchased your software, which I must say is far superior to any of the other note flash cards I've tried. I thank you for a great product.
-Ryan L.

I have been playing guitar for thirty seven years and must admit that this is the first flash card program I have found that will be useful to my students.
-Noteable User

I just purchase your software. I was dyslectic as a kid. I have never read books much and played piano by ear since I was three, but stopped before college as I could not progress. I am 57 now. I just took a music appreciation course for fun and realized how much I missed music. I asked the instructor about learning to read music. He told me of courses to take and private lessons at $30.00 per half hour. I searched on Altavista and found your software. I play it as a game for a few minutes every day and am sure I am on the road to reading music with little effort and no frustration. It may take years, but so be it. I and frustration do not get along.
-Greg D.

I am a school teacher who is trying out your software (free download), and I am finding it great fun and very helpful in instruction for kids.
-Noteable User

Great program! Wife and I are already learning quickly. Thanks for making it bearable. Keep up the great work!

I am so pleased with this great aid to learning. I have long wanted to know the notes I am singing at a glance, tonight at Choir practice I will know them! I have learned the Treble Clef with your aid and now to bass clef and other helpful music knowledge.
-Susan J.

As an Adult Learner returning to music after quite a few years I found your product wonderful. My Father drilled me with flash cards as a child. Many products currently on the market are geared to children and are game-like. Your product is challenging and provides meaningful/helpful feedback and allows me to track my progress.
-Fallon C.

I'm one of those people who "play by ear" and have always wanted to learn to read music. With the repetition of flash cards in a slick interface, learning becomes a game. The note names become like reading another language with understanding! Thank you!
-Sherri A

Congratulations on developing a very clever piece of software - it is a great learning tool.
-Joe S.

I just purchased Noteable and unlocked it. I love your program. it is very helpful to my daughter (piano student) and myself (grew up playing treble clef instruments and now need to read bass clef for bass guitar).
