A small step for Mankind, a giant leap for NoteCard
Flash cards are great, but in an era of personal computing they're not as great as they used to be. In fact, we can now do much better. In the domain of musical notation, our new NoteCard 3.0 release shows just how much better, with a plenitude of new features that enrich, enliven and intensify the learning experience.
Join the Reality Check Chorus
We are still looking for a handful of additional volunteer beta testers for NoteCard 3.0 as we get ready for public release. Particularly if you fit one our preferred user profiles, we would love to hear from you by Saturday, May 9 if you are interested in participating.
Our first product is NoteCard 3. This all-new version of Nick’s classic freeware program is a real pleasure to use, combining a fun, attractive interface with a relentlessly efficient method for building skill in musical note-reading.
As with past versions, this major new release of NoteCard is available for free without obligation, but now you also have the opportunity to buy a premium version with some great bonus features! With either version, you can count on the core NoteCard benefit of fast, focused learning within an attractive and efficient Windows application.
