About Oboe Prompter

The easiest, most fun way to learn to play the oboe! It's like a teleprompter for the oboe: play the note fingerings shown on the screen to play along with the included scales--or import a song MIDI file from your e-mail or from a web site and see note fingerings for the oboe in real time as the song plays! Slow down any song to make it easier to play along with, and adjust the playback speed at any time!

Oboe Prompter can automatically loop either a whole song or a section of a song, so you can highlight a passage you want to focus on and play it along with Oboe Prompter—over and over until you learn it perfectly!

Oboe Prompter also remembers your per-song settings, so you can pop back into any song you’ve been practicing and Oboe Prompter will remember which section you were working on, what tempo you were playing at, which tracks you had muted—and of course whether you had looping turned on!

No more trying to balance fingering charts and sheet music on your music stand! No more having to cross-reference from sheet music to try to find the right note to play! The Oboe Prompter ends this frustration, gets you making music IMMEDIATELY, and keeps you motivated to PLAY MUSIC!

Oboe Prompter is a great tool for people trying to learn to play on their own, or with a private teacher, or in a school environment. Instructors can prepare weekly lessons as MIDI files and e-mail them to students so students can practice the RIGHT music, in the most productive way possible! Delete an imported song by swiping a finger across the title in the song list. Or share an imported song via e-mail, by pressing-and-holding on the song title in the song list.

This release of Oboe Prompter also adds a new way to share music files between users who are in the same room—with support now for AirDrop! If you’re an instructor, share lesson files with your students using AirDrop—no need to know anyone’s e-mail address or phone number! As long as they are near you (in the same room) and have AirDrop enabled, they can receive the files you share instantly! If you’re a student, or in a band, share songs instantly with your fellow musicians—so everyone is on the same page!

Oboe Prompter now supports the two-pedal AirTurn wireless page turner! Now your practices can be MORE PRODUCTIVE and MORE FUN when you control Oboe Prompter with your feet! Start, stop, or pause playback! Scroll backwards or forwards through note fingerings for the notes in your songs in order! Step through the reference fingering charts—by literally stepping on the AirTurn’s pedal! Now you can practice without taking your hands off your instrument—so practice is more efficient, more productive, and MORE FUN! Stay focused on LEARNING and PRACTICING—without having to interrupt your progress by having to touch your iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch’s screen as much! Check out the AirTurn Bluetooth wireless page turner at http://airturn.com —available at amazon, Musician’s Friend, and anywhere music gear is sold--and unlock the best experience possible with Oboe Prompter! (Note that you don't NEED an AirTurn device to use Oboe Prompter--all features of Oboe Prompter are totally usable without any extra hardware. It's just a nice bonus that if you do have an AirTurn device, you can use it with Oboe Prompter!)
We’ve also added a handy new chromatic scale song file to the 36 pre-packaged song/scale files we already include.

You can even view parts in song files written for other instruments--automatically transposed to the correct octave to fit in the oboe’s range!

Regularly priced at $9.99--but buy now at our special introductory price of $4.99! Your time is valuable--let the Oboe Prompter help you make the most of your practices!

New features:

- Ability to pause/resume playing from within the Section viewer display, so you no longer have to switch over to the main screen to pause/resume.
- Added automatic transposition when viewing a track for another instrument whose range is out of your instrument's range. So notes will still sound in the original range, but will be shifted by octaves as necessary to be able to be displayed as note fingerings for your instrument, in your instrument's range.
- Increased the number of notes that can be shown in the Section viewing screen, so you can see a whole song there if you choose.
Bug fix:
- Fixed scenario where re-playing a song file in which the user had chosen a non-default track could cause the highlighted instrument track to change back to the default.
