Hi Terri,
Thank you for your response. If the whole note C is dots 1,3,4,5,6, how
do I Braille the question? That's my main question - if I Braille the
question "What is the Braille symbol for a whole note C?", do I include
the capital letter and letter sign in front of dots 1,4? That's my
dilemma. I don't want it to read "What is the Braille symbol for the
whole note can." It's hard to explain...please help! Thanks.

Hi, Jane,
I read braille music and I can tell you the whole note C is dots
1,3,4,5,6.
Depending on what octave the note is in, there may be a symbol in front of
dots 1,3,4,5,6. The braille music should be taught using dot numbers,
instead of comparing music braille to literary braille. I have never
taught
braille music, but it's my opinion the dot numbering method is less
confusing and it's consistent with teaching all of the braille codes.

Anyone have experience with teaching Braille music to a student? I am
working on whole note recognition and am unsure how to Braille it. If a
whole note C is the letter just the letter "Y" in Braille (no capital or
letter sign), when asking the question "what is a whole note C", would the
C
also be without capital and letter sign, or would I include them as I
would
in literary? I don't want to ask "what is a whole note C (can)? I hope
you
understand my question! Thanks for your help!

Hi Rick,
I must first apologise for taking so long to reply. No excuses on my
part -
I just left it in my Follow Up folder for too long.
In my personal view, Flexipaper from Repro-Tronics in New Jersey is about
the best on the market world-wide.
It's way more expensive here in the U.K compared to the local Zychem, but
the image produced is far better. Your PAIF should handle both.
However, you do need to appreciate that there is a difference between
images
produced by tactile image enhancers (and I include the PIAF here) and
braille embossers.
Feel free to contact me to discuss further,
All the best,
George W. F. Bell

Subject: [duxuser] Braile Graphics, PIAF Paper
WE will be using the PIAF to copy some graphics to be inserted into some
braille documents. Are there differences in the quality of capsule paper
used by the PIAF and the Tactile Image Enhancer?
Are there sites, besides APH, which have downloadable graphics? Can these
graphics be printed on braille paper or do you need capsule paper? Is
the
fre version of QuickTac from Duxbury adequate for editing these graphics
or
do you need something more powerful?
