Goodfeel will do music and lyrics; I have seen a demo of this and it was
awesome. Toccata will too. As somebody pointed out, there is cleanup;
you can't really go from print music to Braille in one fell swoop,
although the demo made it look almost that easy. If, Victoria, you are
a trained music Braillist and are accustomed to doing six-key input, and
you're happy with Duxbury, then don't fix what ain't broke.

Victoria.
When I was researching braille software for music about 4 years ago, I
had a hard time finding software that not only brailled music but lyrics
to the music. I had a brilliant student in high school chorus that
needed not only music but also lyrics. Ask a lot of questions regarding
the software and get references before you purchase. Check with TSBVI or
a big school with a music program.

Just wondering if anyone out there has any information on this
situation. I'm a music braillist, happily using DBT 10.5 for music
textbooks and for general music. Many music braillists I know use
Braille2000. I'm trying to decide if there would be any value to my
having this as a second program. Is there anyone out there who uses DBT
but who finds Braille2000 more helpful in some way for music production?
If so, I'd be most grateful for your opinion. Thanks!
