Defaults for excercises that don't have a specified configuration.
Set the tempo (beats per minute) for music and arpeggio's.
Set the midi instrument and velocity (volume of each note).
Solfege uses this info in some exercises where the user is supposed to sing.
These spin buttons tell Solfege the highest and lowest tone the user can sing. These values are only considered advisory by the program. If for example the values are set to c to c' and you have configured the program to ask you to sing small and large decims, you will have to sing tones outside this range.
There are three ways to play sound: <variablelist>
/dev/music
because it has the best support for percussion instruments. /dev/sequencer2
is usually a symbolic link to /dev/music
. If your system don't have /dev/music
, you can create it with this command as root (if you run the linux kernel version 2.2 or later):
cd /dev mknod music u 14 8
Check the ''My sound card is Sound Blaster AWE32, AWE64 or
pnp32'' check button if you have this kind of sound card.
This will
give you real percussion in the rhythm exercise. Code still has to
be added for other sound cards. This option is only necessary if you
use /dev/sequencer
to play midi sounds.
