PAUL  The interface is somewhat difficult to use, but functionality appears to be present in abundance.

For a 0.1 beta, this is quite a good app.

ANONYMOUS  Quite a nice little program. i haven't played with it much but my first impress is good. it appears to be written in java and is quite stable. it's hellishly simple though so don't expect to write the next symphony with it. however, i think this program's power may be in its shear simplicity.

i can't find any help for the program, even from the web site, at least not at this time. my advice, only use this program if you already have a good knowledge of MIDI - i mean, how channels, tracks and patches work. you must also know how to compose music.

the graphical reprasenation of the notes is pathetic. in future i would like the see the developers create a printable score layout from the notes you input. for now, the program is good for making .mid files that you can listen to eaily.
