Provided you don't try to translate it or change the grade/code, yes. On Nov 12, 2013, at 8:14 PM, jessica brown <justforlistmessages531@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

If you tried to read it on the display would it still look like how it should?

Please remember to change subject lines!

When you type an unsupported code, you cannot read back what you have with speech. If you never translate or speak what you write, you can write grade 3, music braille, nemeth, anything at all you want to, in any code. After all, at the end of the day, braille is just a collection of symbols, and even if the bn has no clue what you mean, you can make those symbols say anything you like. So, to write braille music, you'd just type it into a brf or kwb file and there you go. The catch is that you could never print, translate, or have the bn speak that file or it will make no sense at all.

Why would you have to turn off the speech? Does leaving it on effect how the music is written?

Hi, Alex,

You can read and write braille music using the BN but you must turn off speech. But you cannot translate braille music into print. I would have enjoyed using a Bn for reading and writing braille music when I was in high
school and college. A BN is so much quieter than the brailler!

Incidentally, the same thing applies to the HIMS notetakers
